At the Summer Launch Event, OnePlus has finally unveiled a slew of new products. The new products include the OnePlus Pad 2, OnePlus Nord Buds 3 Pro, and OnePlus Watch 2R. In this post, let’s find out the highlighting features, specs, price, and availability of OnePlus Pad 2.
OnePlus Pad 2 has launched globally today across North America, India, and Europe. The new product is designed to diversify the tablet category with the best-in-class Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 platform, 12.1-inch 3K display, and six stereo speakers. Additionally, the device is built to give its users an amazing workflow and an immersive experience in entertainment with a OnePlus Stylo 2 and OnePlus Smart Keyboard.
Powerful and intelligent enhancements for unmatched workflow
The latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 mobile platform ticks all the right boxes to round off the OnePlus Pad 2 and excel as expected in handling both professional and personal tasks. A suite of extraordinary connectivity features that make productivity a breeze with simplified multi-device workflows supports this powerhouse model: sharing internet connections with OnePlus phones, synchronizing media across devices, clipboard and notification sharing, and remote file access.
Display and visuals
One of the most outstanding feature of the OnePlus Pad 2 is, arguably, the large 12.1-inch LCD panel with a resolution of 3000 × 2120 pixels, further enhanced by its refresh rate, which goes as low as 30Hz and as high as 144Hz adaptively. With a peak brightness of 900 nits, 303 ppi, and a more-than-astounding 88.40% screen-to-body ratio, every movie, every series, and any other visual content that is played out on the Pad 2 comes across dale and radiant.
Performance
The OnePlus Pad 2 comes with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset at its core, which is claimed to be the SoC lineup befitting the performance of top-tier segment devices. This powerhouse of a processor has been paired with two RAM and storage variants: 8GB of RAM with 128GB of storage, and 12GB of RAM with 256GB of storage.
Battery and charging
Knowing that most tablets consume more power than a smartphone, OnePlus has fitted the Pad 2 with a sizable 9510mAh battery. This large battery provides prolonged use, allowing users to work, play, and stream without constant recharging. In addition, the Pad 2 is supported by 67W SUPERVOOC fast charging, which significantly reduces the downtime by quick replenishment of the battery and thus keeping you going on your toes.
Camera capabilities
The OnePlus Pad 2 will feature a 13MP rear camera and an 8MP front camera. This will work quite well for video calls, online meetings, and remote classes. The camera setup gives reasonably good picture quality for sharp and clear virtual interaction. Anyway, tablets are really not used that much in taking pictures, so in this regard, it’s more than enough for daily use.
Design and build
Measuring 268.66 × 195.06 × 6.49 mm and weighing approximately 584 grams, the OnePlus Pad 2 strikes a nice balance between slimness in the design and substantial build quality. Even with a flagship chipset and a big-enough battery, the Pad 2 is surprisingly thin, which makes it easy to carry around while appearing stylish. It has a pretty sleek dimension and is light enough to carry, hold, or use hands-free for long durations.
Smart accessories for enhanced productivity
For boosted productivity, OnePlus has launched two new innovative accessories—the OnePlus Stylo 2 and the OnePlus Smart Keyboard. The OnePlus Stylo 2 features a leather-like material. Equipped with an advanced linear motor, it provides hyperrealistic pen-tip vibration. With 16,000 levels of pressure sensitivity and zero-millisecond delay tracking, this stylus mimics actual ink even at light pressures.
The OnePlus Smart Keyboard kicks off with an expansive 8,640mm² touch-sensitive area, more than doubling the size of the previous touchpad. It offers a robust magnetic attachment with adjustable tilt angles of 110°–165°. In addition, it can also physically attach to the OnePlus Pad 2 via a pogo-pin or detached via Bluetooth.
