OnePlus Pad coming to the US for $479, shipping from May 8

 

The much-anticipated OnePlus Pad, the company’s debut Android tablet, has been generating a lot of buzz, and now we finally have confirmation of its price. While we had previously reported on the Indian pricing of the device, this article will provide a comprehensive overview of its pricing across various global markets.

OnePlus has finally disclosed the price of its inaugural Android tablet, the OnePlus Pad, after offering paid reservations for pre-orders earlier this month. The device is set to cost $479 in the United States, according to the company’s official announcement.

To put it simply, the OnePlus Pad comes with a price tag of $479 in the US, which is $100 more than Apple’s base iPad model and $20 more than the iPad 10th Generation. However, it’s much more affordable than Samsung’s comparable tablet, the Galaxy Tab S8, which starts at $699.

For those interested in purchasing the OnePlus Pad, here’s a breakdown of the starting pricing for some of the major regions:

  • India: ₹37,999
  • United States: $479
  • Canada: $649
  • United Kingdom: £449
  • Europe: €499

The OnePlus Pad is the brand’s very first entry into the tablet market, and it boasts impressive features at an affordable price. It comes with 8GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, and is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 chipset, making it capable of handling demanding applications and multitasking with ease. The device runs on the latest version of Android, Android 13, with OxygenOS on top.

The OnePlus Pad sports an 11.61-inch display with a 2,800 x 2,000 pixels resolution, which is faster than even Samsung’s latest tablets, with a refresh rate of 144Hz, making it ideal for high-speed gaming and other fast-paced applications. The display also supports Dolby Vision, providing an immersive viewing experience.

The device’s long-lasting 9,510mAh battery comes with 67W fast charging, allowing for quick top-ups when needed. The tablet is equipped with quad stereo speakers with an Omni-bearing sound field and Dolby Atmos support, ensuring a superior audio experience.

The OnePlus Pad also features a 13MP rear camera and an 8MP front-facing camera, making it suitable for taking pictures and video conferencing. The tablet comes in a sleek, modern design with a thin profile, making it easy to carry around.

The launch of the OnePlus Pad comes just before the release of another flagship Android tablet, the Google Pixel Tablet. OnePlus has managed to undercut the competition in terms of price, making it a compelling option for those looking for a high-quality Android tablet without breaking the bank.

For those who are interested in getting their hands on the OnePlus Pad, early reservations are still open. As a bonus, customers who reserve early can choose between a free OnePlus Stylo or OnePlus Magnetic Keyboard. It’s worth noting that the keyboard is the better option, despite its higher cost. The tablet is set to begin shipping on May 8, so those who place their reservations soon can expect to receive their device shortly thereafter.

With its impressive specs and features, the OnePlus Pad is sure to be a strong contender in the tablet market, particularly as the release of Google’s Pixel Tablet looms on the horizon.
