The wait is almost over. OnePlus has officially confirmed that its latest Android tablet, the OnePlus Pad 3, will go on sale in India this September. Although the exact launch date and pricing are yet to be announced, the company has made it clear that Indian customers will not be left behind this time. After months of speculation and global teasers during the OnePlus 13s reveal, the Pad 3 is finally making its way to Indian markets.
Powered by the ultra-fast Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, the OnePlus Pad 3 promises to deliver a flagship tablet experience. This is the same chipset found in OnePlus’ most premium phones, including the OnePlus 13 and 13s. It is built for serious performance and multitasking, something the Pad 3 seems to fully embrace. The tablet also comes with up to 16GB of LPDDR5T RAM and as much as 512GB of UFS 4.0 storage, making it one of the most powerful tablets ever released by the brand.
Design-wise, OnePlus is stepping away from the circular rear camera module of the Pad 2 and introducing a new vertical pill-shaped island. It gives the Pad 3 a sleeker and more modern look. The tablet is incredibly slim at just under 6 millimetres and weighs only 675 grams, making it both portable and premium in hand.
Its screen is a showstopper too. The Pad 3 features a large 13.2-inch 3.4K IPS LCD display with a smooth 144Hz refresh rate and up to 900 nits of peak brightness. The 540Hz touch sampling rate will appeal to gamers and productivity-focused users alike. For entertainment lovers, the eight-speaker surround system ensures an immersive sound experience whether you are streaming a movie or attending a virtual meeting.
On the camera front, it sports a 13MP main sensor on the back with an LED flash and an 8MP selfie camera at the front. While tablets are not usually known for photography, these cameras are well-equipped for video calls, document scanning, and casual captures.
Battery life is another major highlight. With a massive 12,140mAh battery and 80W SuperVOOC fast charging, the Pad 3 is designed to keep you powered all day with quick top-ups when needed. That makes it ideal for those who use tablets for extended work sessions or binge-watching marathons.
Software support has also been a key focus. Running on OxygenOS 15 based on Android 15, the Pad 3 comes with a guarantee of three years of major Android updates and six years of security patches. Multi-tasking features like open canvas, multi-device connect, and smart clipboard management make it especially appealing for students, remote workers, and digital creatives.
As the Indian tablet market becomes more competitive, OnePlus is clearly positioning the Pad 3 to be a serious contender not only in specs but in long-term value. While the pricing is still under wraps, it is expected to remain within reach for performance-focused users looking for a premium tablet experience without switching to Apple or Samsung.
With the official sale slated for September, OnePlus fans in India can finally look forward to a high-end Android tablet that is built to perform and designed to impress. The OnePlus Pad 3 looks like it could be the device that brings serious momentum back to the Android tablet segment.
