The OnePlus Open supports a stylus even better than the Galaxy Z Fold 5

The OnePlus Open supports a stylus, and it does it on both of its screens, unlike the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5. Read on to know more!

I wonder why they wouldn't market this? Maybe because styli aren't for cool kidz...

Is it inductive?

I do not completely understand all the various differences with stylus pens. In my opinion they should all use the SAME technology! At any rate, according to everything I have read so far, the only one that will work is from Oppo and was originally made for the N2, and N3. I already ordered one from GIZTOP.com
Yes, yes it's pricey but available and comes with the needed charger. YMMV

did you ever get your pen? Does it work with the OneDrive app to markup PDF?

From the start I was told that it would take 12-24 days to arrive when shipped. There were three levels of shipping with the fastest being the most expensive. I purchased the middle tier which came to a little over $5.00 (if I remember correctly). So from my standpoint here in the USA it has been 5 days since it shipped. The tracking hasn't changed in several days because once it was picked up it may have sat in another warehouse awaiting transport to a plane to fly here to the USA. I am anticipating an update in the tracking information tomorrow since it is a workday. Long story short...no I have not yet received the pen.

How are you liking the phone?...

Love the phone! Replaced a Samsung S23U (which was also a great phone although I do not like curved screens) and it also replaced a Samsung Tab S8+ which was also great and my sister now uses it and loves it!
So now I have a phone with an outside FLAT screen that works great with or without the Pen, and when I "open" the Open I have a tablet that also works great FOR ME! I have no regrets up to this point! I have resisted foldables since they came out due to concerns over the inner screens durability, so hopefully after 5 years the inner screens are good enough to last many years!

Awesome news and great to hear it

The pen comes with instructions in Chinese...hmmmmm
However I have determined through experimentation that the dual charger/holder case MUST have its own battery that can charge the pen when sitting in the cradle and not in use. My pen was down to the lower 80's in charge after using it for about 2 hours and then I placed it in the charger cradle BUT I did not plug in the charging cable. The little LED on the end of the cradle lit up for a few seconds and then turned off. I left it in the cradle all night and when I checked this morning the pen was at 100% charge! Obviously the cradle charged it from an internal battery. This is working the same as ear buds where the charging case has its own internal battery for the same purpose.
