Even though it’s an LCD, lacking the extreme contrast ratios you’ll find on OLED or mini-LED panels, it’s still an extremely bright and vibrant display, whether you’re looking through photos, watching a movie or playing games. OnePlus says it’s a Dolby Vision panel with HDR, and its 2,800 x 2,000 resolution works out to 296 pixels per inch. There’s a lot to like about the OnePlus Tab’s screen besides just the size. As with most successful tablet designs, it’s a screen-first device that is light and easy to hold, which is probably the most important thing. On the sides, you’ll notice the power button and two volume buttons, a USB-C port and four speakers. But while OnePlus made a lovely piece of hardware, Android’s large-screen limitations continue to hamper the overall experience.īesides the screen, there’s nothing else of note on the front of the Pad aside from the landscape-oriented 8-megapixel camera for video chat. And the fact that OnePlus is also making a keyboard folio and a stylus shows they’re serious about making a tablet built for more than just watching movies or browsing the web. Instead, this tablet reminds me more of Apple’s 10th-generation iPad, in style, substance and price. As the price hints, OnePlus isn’t going right after high-end tablets like Samsung’s Galaxy S8 lineup or Apple’s iPad Air or Pro. Plenty of manufacturers have tried, but for various reasons Android tablets have never caught on.ĭespite that market reality, OnePlus is taking its first shot at this market with the $479 OnePlus Pad. Samsung has hit on a high-end formula that works pretty well, Amazon’s cheap Fire tablets technically run Android… and that’s basically it. Google itself hasn’t released one in years, though that’ll change soon with the forthcoming Pixel Tablet. I really thought we were done with Android tablets. ![]()
