OnePlus Pad

As a long time user of Apple ipads from original 9.7 (several) to 12.9 inch versions, I was searching for a tablet in between. I considered the newer iPad 11 series, but took a chance on an Android OS and unknown brand, to me, that offered the correct ratios and size to easy read financial/investments documents and PDFs. While the 7.5 ratio display may not be the best dimensions for games, it is unquestionably superior to reading technical documents and ebooks/articles that are in horizontal scrolling or page flipping. My 12.9 iPad certainly has a beautiful large display that one can easily read and edit on; however, it's size, weight and balance is not the best for extensive handholding reading. I actually bought the cheaper, light weight and largest Amazon Fire tablet just for reading Kindle and other digital library books, but now the oneplus11 tablet can do both quite well- without resorting to my high power reading glasses for some technical pdfs. Also the latest Android OS works well with syncing my Laptop's Windows Office/Outlook email to the OnePlus 11 tablet. I have only had it a few days, and I love it's response, speed, display (nice video resolution with ideal ratio/size), better Android OS and reasonable price. So, yes the iPad now has worthy competition.UPDATE: After a couple of weeks of use, I am still impressed and have semi retired my iPad 12.9. Even more, my Amazon Fire tablet and other older iPad 9.7 have not even been booted up. I will still use my larger iPad for ZOOM and working on programs/app only available on IOS. There are extensive documents in my Good Reader app/format - for example -not available in Android. Perhaps some could point out that the latest iPads have slightly better displays and camera plus a much cleaner back panel with more acceptable colors selections, but weighing cost and performance this tablet is superb.UPDATE: 8/15/2025. As I asserted earlier this is a remarkable tablet, and I have extensively used it everyday. Now the battery is being to weaken, and I would like to replace it. Great product but really poor service and support. I have a excellent repair facility located in Huntington Beach, CA; however, OnePlus will not sell battery. Attempting to even get a way to send in my tablet to their repair facility in Texas is faculty and so complex plus at least 15 days. So, GREAT PRODUCT BUT POOR SUPPORT & SERVICE.

I did a lot of searching around to figure out what the best tablet was for my use case in this price bracket of sub $400 tablets.My main use case is content, such as Crunchyroll, HiDive for anime, YouTube and Netflix all of which this tablet is great for. The aspect ratio is a little weird but it isn't an issue for me at all. The quad speakers sound great for content, they more than met my expectations from experience with budget tablet speakers. They are pretty solid speakers. The screen is great, make sure to at least test the "vivid color" option (HDR) it makes the colors and contrast pop a lot more.This is my first experience with a OnePlus device and OxygenOS and I have so far enjoyed it. It's been about a week and I haven't encountered any hiccups or issues with it myself. So far for the money it's been an amazing tablet.I spent a good bit of time comparing the Dimensity 9000 to other chips like the SnapDragon 8 gen 1 and others, for best performance of the chipset because I did want it to handle some mobile gaming. I don't play Genshin Impact but I do play Honkai: Star Rail and it handles it great. Sub $400 this was the best new option I could find for performance and the whole package really. Supervooc charging (67w) is amazing for the tablet. From like 25% to 100% in about an hour or so. I use the limited charging so it stops charging at 80% to extend the life of the battery.If you're looking for a great all around tablet with a great screen, solid speakers, battery life and performance this is a great deal for this price range. You basically need to spend another $100 to beat it's specs if you want to buy new.The only Con for me is the lack of expandable storage. I don't think it warrants a 4/5 star for that alone since it's not a big deal for me personally, but it is something to be aware of.

An excellent tablet. I have had several OnePlus phones and their tablet matches in quality. Easy to setup and use, clear and vivid screen, fast charging.
