It hurts me that when people search for tablet options, they don’t pay enough attention to OnePlus. Some of the best Android tablets that you can get come from that Chinese OEM, and the best part is that they are pretty easily available for those who want to purchase them in the biggest international markets.
OnePlus isn’t bowing out of the tablet game any time soon, and rumor has it that a Pro version of the OnePlus Pad 2 is on its way. If it pans out exactly as the rumors say it will, it’s about to be a killer device—potentially powerful and sensibly-priced enough to be a serious issue for the Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 series.
The OnePlus Pad Pro 2 Could Hit Shelves With Flagship Power
As much as I’m not a tablet person, I can appreciate a good product when I see one, and I think that OnePlus is pretty skilled when it comes to that. While the company hasn’t made nearly as many tablets as OEMs like Lenovo or Samsung, its options are still incredibly solid and perfect for those who seek out a certain degree of performance from large-screened Android devices.
Tablet lovers should be excited, as OnePlus is getting ready to release another device to join the OnePlus Pad 2. This tablet is expected to be called the OnePlus Pad Pro 2, and since we’re hearing a lot about it already, it will likely find its way to the stage within a month or two.
The OnePlus Pad Pro 2 is going to be a perfect option for those who love tablets that can do as much as the best smartphones in terms of performance. According to Digital Chat Station, it will come with the Snapdragon 8 Elite, which would make it the only Android tablet in the market with that much power inside. Paired with 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 1TB of UFS 4.0 storage, it seems to be a prime option for tablet power users.
The Rest of the Spec Sheet Should Be a Worry for Samsung
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 series consists of some very solid tablets. They opt for a flagship-grade MediaTek Dimensity chip, they come with big screens that are pleasing to the eye, and they pack plenty of features to make them stand out from the crowd. However, the biggest downside to Samsung’s flagship tablets is their price. They cost a whole lot of money.
Even before this aspect of the OnePlus Pad Pro 2 has been detailed, I can bet that it isn’t going to cost nearly as much, and that is one worry that Samsung should have, especially when you consider the rest of the rumored spec sheet. There should be a 13.2-inch 3.4K LCD display, a 10,000mAh+ battery, and either 67W or 80W fast charging—which is a must for a device with a battery as big as that.
You’ll get cameras, too, but as I always like to say, no one buys a tablet for its camera. The rear camera will be a 13MP unit, while the selfie shooter will have a slightly lower resolution at 8MP. All that remains to be confirmed is that OnePlus won’t selfishly keep this tablet within Chinese borders.
