OnePlus is taking its claim in the tablet market to the next level and officially announcing its new flagship tablet, OnePlus Pad 3 Pro, in China. Equipped with one of Qualcomm’s most powerful processors, this new device draws attention not only with its performance, but also with its huge screen and software features that appeal to professionals.

The tablet, which is available for pre-order in the Chinese market, is actually the local version of the OnePlus Pad 4 model, which is offered for sale in the global market. Targeting both gamers and productivity-oriented users, OnePlus aims to change the balance in the tablet world with Pad 3 Pro.

Peak Performance: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and Advanced Cooling

OnePlus Pad 3 Pro comes with a structure that does not compromise on the hardware side. The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor at the heart of the device enables the tablet to perform smoothly even under the heaviest workloads and games with the highest graphics.

This powerful processor is accompanied by an advanced cooling system combining graphite and VC (vapor chamber) technologies with a size of 40,760 mm², which is rare in tablets. In this way, the device offers stable performance without experiencing heating problems even in long-term use.

Desktop Experience with ColorOS 16

On the software side, OnePlus Pad 3 Pro, which comes out of the box with the ColorOS 16 operating system, offers features that will radically change tablet usage habits. The new system brings free windowed multitasking management similar to desktop computers.

Thanks to this feature, users can simultaneously manage multiple applications on the screen in any size they want and increase their productivity.

Visual Feast: 144Hz Screen and Professional Color Quality

Screen quality is considered one of the most important criteria in the tablet world. OnePlus Pad 3 Pro more than meets this expectation with a 13.2-inch giant LCD panel produced by TCL CSOT. Offering a resolution of 3392 x 2400 pixels and a pixel density of 315ppi, this screen promises an incredibly fluid experience with a 144Hz refresh rate.

The technical details of the screen are not limited to just speed. The panel, which can reach a peak brightness value of 1000 nits, provides sufficient color accuracy even for professional graphic designers with 100 percent DCI-P3 color gamut coverage and a deltaE value of approximately 0.7.

In addition, it is the first tablet in the world to receive the TÜV Rheinland Smart Eye Protection 5.0 certificate, minimizing eye fatigue during long-term use.

Battery and Sound: The Fun Never Ends on the Tablet

In entertainment-oriented uses, sound and battery life are vital. OnePlus Pad 3 Pro is powered by a huge battery with a capacity of 13,380 mAh. This battery can be charged in a short time with 67W fast charging support and does not let the user down.

On the audio side, we are greeted by a setup with 8 speakers. This system, consisting of four mid-bass units and four ultra-wideband tweeters, offers a cinematic sound experience with double Hi-Res sound certification.

Accessories and Connection Options

OnePlus also introduces its new accessories to enrich the user experience. OnePlus Floating Keyboard with integrated NFC support and low-latency OnePlus Pencil 3 Pro turn the tablet into a fully equipped mobile office. Details such as the USB 3.1 port and magnetic ring antenna system ensure that the device is fully compatible with the modern technology world.

The device will go on sale in China on May 13, 2026; It comes in three different variants: 12GB+256GB, 12GB+512GB and 16GB+512GB. In addition to Deep Brown and Light Green color options, special launch colors are also included in the collection.

Since the OnePlus Pad 3 Pro has almost the same hardware as the OnePlus Pad 4 in the global market, this model is not expected to come out of China.
