OnePlus recently announced a new version of its much-loved first foldable phone, the OnePlus Open Apex Edition, and now it's available to pre-order. In addition, it comes with a healthy discount and freebie thrown in for good measure.
As well as a new colourway – Crimson Shadow – the Apex Edition offers upgraded security features, 16GB of RAM, and double the storage space, with 1TB now on offer. However, the enhanced version of one of the best foldable phones on the market is available in an incredible deal in the UK right now.
As well as £200 off the price during the pre-order phase, which makes it cheaper than the existing OnePlus Open models, there are three free tech gifts ready to redeem.
You can choose either the OnePlus Watch 2 or OnePlus Buds Pro 3 to add to your bundle at no extra cost, and that's not all. If you're one of the first 96 to place your order, you also get a special edition version of the Bang & Olufsen Beosound A1 Bluetooth speaker and a OnePlus SUPERVOOC 80W power adaptor to fast charge your phone.

The pre-order offer lasts until 3 September 2024, when the phone goes on general sale.
If you miss out, you will still get the discounted price and a free pair of OnePlus Buds Pro 3 after that date. In addition, all orders placed before 3 October will get an additional £100 trade-in coupon when trading in an eligible device.
