Get ready for a potential game-changer in the budget tablet market. A recent leak from Digital Chat Station, shared by Android Authority, suggests that OnePlus is preparing to launch a new “Standard Edition” tablet with impressive features.

This tablet may feature a large 11.6-inch display with a smooth 144Hz refresh rate and a resolution of 2,800 x 2,000 pixels. It is expected to be powered by a new MediaTek Dimensity 8350 processor. It will also come equipped with a substantial 9,520mAh battery that supports 67-watt fast charging, ensuring extended usage hours. So far, all are very promising specs.

Why is this tablet rumor likely true? Oppo recently introduced the Oppo Pad 3 in China, which has the exact specifications. While they operate as separate brands, Oppo and OnePlus are closely linked and often launch similar products in different markets.

The newly announced Oppo Pad 3 is only 6.29 mm thick and offers options for either 8GB or 12GB of RAM. It also provides various storage capacities: 128GB, 256GB, or 512GB. The tablet is compatible with the Oppo Pencil 2 as well. In China, it is available in three colors: silver, purple, and dark blue.

OnePlus currently offers the 2023 OnePlus Pad for $300 and the 2024 OnePlus Pad 2 for $550. The 2023 model features the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 chip, while the 2024 model has a more powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. Android Authority points out that if the new tablet includes a Dimensity 8350, it will likely be priced lower than the current models.

OnePlus sells a OnePlus Pad Go for approximately $300 in some regions. This version is equipped with a MediaTek Helio G99, which ranks below the MediaTek 8350 in terms of performance. This suggests that the new tablet could be named the OnePlus Go 2. If this new OnePlus Pad launches in the U.S., we could be looking at a price tag of around $400 or less. For these specs, that would be mighty impressive.

Digital Chat Station expects the newest OnePlus tablet to launch soon.

Despite smartphones like the Oppo Find X8 Pro, Apple iPhone 16 Pro, and Galaxy S25 Ultra costing more, the $1,000 price point has still proven to be the ultimate fighting challenge of the smartphone industry.

While some companies offer smartphones above this price, these are dubbed as ultra-premium flagship smartphones, and the flagship smartphone market is determined by the best that a company can offer at, or lower than, the magical $1,000 price point.

OnePlus may launch a compact flagship smartphone

OnePlus may be planning to release another entry into its OnePlus 13 range, and it may be substantially different to other mainstream smartphones. It’s potentially going to be called the OnePlus 13 Mini, and as the name suggests, it’ll be smaller than the OnePlus 13 and OnePlus 13R already available. Is interest in the "compact flagship smartphone" about to see (another) resurgence?

The latest about the unreleased phone concerns the camera, which will apparently feature two 50-megapixel sensors, arranged in a vertical “bar” module on the back of the phone. The main 50MP camera is likely to be joined by a 50MP telephoto for a 2x optical zoom. This comes from the Digital Chat Station Weibo account, a well-known source of information on unreleased mobile devices.

OnePlus is killing it, but it still needs to fix this problem with its phones
The OnePlus 13's camera.

If you're looking to buy one of the best phones right now, you need to consider the latest flagship from OnePlus. Dubbed the OnePlus 13, it launched three weeks ago and after spending more than a month with it, it's become clear that it's my favorite Android smartphone.

Yet, there's a clear problem with the OnePlus 13 and it's a long-standing problem that OnePlus has never really tried to resolve. Well, that's not entirely true but internal strife between former co-founders and the complex issue of its relationship with sibling Oppo have made it a challenge for OnePlus to solve this.
