OnePlus Pad 2 Review: My new Favorite tablet!

What is it with OnePlus and making amazing first devices? Its first phone shook the tech world and its foldable was one of the best phones of 2023. Well, okay, there was the OnePlus Watch..

. But anyway, the company’s first tablet, the OnePlus Pad , was one of my favorite tablets, and I was surprised at how well of a job the company did. If I didn’t have to send my review unit, it’d be my daily tablet to this day.

But, time goes on; I was given the opportunity to review the OnePlus Pad 2. With how the tablet market has been dropping quarter over quarter, I was surprised that OnePlus wanted to roll the dice on making a tablet. It had stiff competition with the Google Pixel Tablet, which had its own set of benefits and a comparable price.

Also, you can’t forget about the mainstays in the tablet market, Samsung and Apple. With all of that competition, OnePlus was able to deliver a tablet that stood out against the competition. We have its close partnership with Oppo to thank for that.

Now, it’s a new year, and there’s new competition both here and down the horizon. Apple released its latest slew of iPads, and one of them is the M4-powered iPad Pro. It’s truly the tablet to beat.

Also, Samsung is gearing up to launch its Galaxy Tab S10 series of phones within a few months as of the writing of this review. It doesn’t matter if OnePlus isn’t targeting the $1,000+ market of top-tier tablets. It’s going up against the massive fan bases that the big wigs enjoy compa.
