Little bummed that there's no USB C video output. That's a pretty important feature for me on a tablet. I don't know why they couldn't at least just give us screen mirroring. I'm sure they have their reasons.

Excellent review as usual. Thanks Juan! 😊I'm considering a tablet for multimedia and casual office work. Would this be a good choice, or are iPads better for work/play balance?

If you could do a drawing review on this tablet focusing on the stylus performance, would be super helpful

Great review. I just picked one up for $400 US with the keyboard folio included. This is the best tab Ive ever used and Ive used Samsung Tabs in the past.

How does it stack up against the Lenovo/Xaoxin Pad Pro? Slimmer body and bezels and great sound with an OLED display. Only downside is there is no integrated GPS. Great video!

Nice vid! Would anyone know if this OnePlus Pad is a good competitor or better option than my Samsung Tab S7?

Does it have LTE/5G? can this make phone call? I wish I can find a full feature tablet that can still make phone call, do you know any?

I love the idea of a tablet solution, especially with how efficient arm soc has become. If only we could get better third party software support for android.

Nope. OP keeps the task bar more phone-like. On your homescreen, the only option is to include recently used apps. When you're in an app, or splitscreening currently, the bar just disappears like it does on a phone. Side tabs are for minimizing apps, instead of housing them at the bottom of the screen.

check out the Lenovo P11 Pro Gen2. Seems about as good (but Mediatek Kompanio instead of Mediatek Dimensity) but a good deal cheaper.

In 2017 i remember tablet market was completely vanished because of 6 inch phones coming in market. But i see in 2022 tablets are coming with nice lcd display with good ram processors and battery. So i see sales tablets getting high. Nokia tab t20 and t10 are stock Android tablets which are new in this field and battery life and display is superb compare to past tablet and this is the reason i am purchasing this one. Because i remember those days when i purchased a lenovo tablet in 2015 which has worst in terms of everything if you compare nowadays. So yeah tablets are coming back but with a powerful specs and cheap price 😊

I have an older iPad from about 6 years ago that barely gets turned on as it is. Mainly use it to pull up a recipe in the kitchen on something larger than my phone. It does look like a great option for tablet-seekers though. Definitely solid competition for Samsung. (Finally.) I could see it being a popular option for artists. Heck, maybe even 3D modellers.

Lovely looking device ♥️

PSA on the Lenovo tablet. I bought the Chinese ROM Lenovo P11 Pro 2021 (Xiaoxin Pad Pro). Maybe it's just my unit, but the unit feels like it has a very finicky resistive touch screen when you're not holding the unit, making it almost unusable when propped on a desk other than as a video player. It's okay when you're holding it though, so I didn't return the unit because it was very good value for money at the time. Stylus loses power mid-use. You have to hit it relatively hard or remove then re-insert the battery for it to function again. But the worst thing is that when I reset the unit to check if that would fix the touch issues after upgrading to ZUI 14, it removed the desktop mode and Google playstore. I sideloaded the google APK after a few days of research. I don't use the keyboard anymore after PC mode disappeared because it's no longer a laptop replacement without it. My frustration's just too much that I post this comment on all videos I watch recommending Lenovo tablets. Hope you all par🎉don the unstructured rant.

It's certainly not the end of the world using an LCD screen, but it would be nice if they would've decided to go for OLED. I suppose at the price they're selling it for though that was a cut that needed to be made. Performance with some of the new dimensity processors has been excellent, so that's a good thing in my mind.

I think iPad has the better aspect ratio for this, but they don't include the stylus in the box like Samsung do, it costs 3x more, and I found the Apple Pencil worse to use compared to Samsung's Spen largely because of the thicker nib and the fact that it didn't compress into the pen the way the Spen does when you're using it.

I can't help but think that this is the international version of the currently China-only Vivo Pad2. They both got the same Dimensity 9000 SoC and the same 7:5 IPS LCD screen. Even the detachable keyboard and the stylus look suspiciously identical between the two. The only difference between them is that the Vivo has a larger screen size, a bigger battery but with slower 44W charging, and USB-C 3.2 with DisplayPort capability. Also, the Vivo is somewhat cheaper at ~$360 for 8/128.

I'm kinda happy seeing the tablet market at the moment growing at a slow pace. But I don't think the Oneplus Pad is the best android tablet out now; seeing now the Global side doesn't get much refreshes unlike the Asia market which specifically the China market has so many hidden gems of tablet refreshes. Just a bit of a rant; so anyone reading can just ignore. Currently, android tablets for China has the better hardware, i.e the recently released Xiaomi Mipad 6 lineup and Lenovo's Y900 (Tab Extreme for global markets). While global usually gets the downgraded & up-marked RP really makes me sad. As far that I know, Lenovo's Y900's is the only other one released using Mediatek's last gen Dimensity 9000 and the Mipad 6 out valued the Lenovo P11 Pro (especially the Xiaoxin models) in terms of hardware at similar price points. Only Xiaoxin/Lenovo P11 Pro has the advantage of better display, support for display out, decent optimized productivity apps (despite the newer OS builds removes the option for Desktop Mode by default) & more thoughtful accessories (which improves somes ideas from Apple & Samsung tablet accessories). The only downside I could personally see is probably poor software optimization for productivity work, lack of localization apps due to region locked and different markets, and folks aren't familiar with the chinese language. Also, warranty if that's a concern. Tldr; global kind of gets the end shaft of the bargain because we have Samsung & Apple to be big players in this tablet market and have their say for prices. There's so many hidden and well-valued android tablets from China that I've discovered and most Global folks won't be able to find and experience them which is a shame. So yeah, I don't think the Oneplus Pad / Oppo is the best android tablet out there, there's so many great alternatives for multiple workload and entertainment needs. Again, thank you for making these kind of videos, especially goin' deep dives into photography oriented phones and not following reviewer terms that it's okay because of "average consumers".
