A smaller 8.8-inch tablet is coming too, just later.
Key Points
- OnePlus Tablet 3 Pro features a 13.2-inch display, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen5, 16GB LPDDR5X RAM, and 512GB UFS 4.1 storage
- Battery capacity is described as “super ten-thousand level” — suggesting a cell well above 10,000mAh
- Two color options confirmed: titanium and green
- A compact 8.8-inch tablet with Snapdragon 8 Gen5 and a soft-light screen version is also in development
- OnePlus plans to launch the larger tablets first, with the smaller model following afterward
The Pro Spec Sheet Is Serious
16GB of LPDDR5X paired with 512GB of UFS 4.1 storage — that’s a configuration that doesn’t apologize for anything. It’s squarely aimed at people who actually push a tablet hard: video editors, heavy multitaskers, anyone running professional apps on a large screen rather than just streaming Netflix in bed.
The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen5 sitting underneath all that memory means performance won’t be the bottleneck here. Whether the software keeps up with the hardware is, as always with Android tablets, the more interesting question.
Titanium and green are the color options, which is a more interesting pairing than the usual black-and-silver default. The green in particular could look genuinely sharp on a 13.2-inch chassis if OnePlus executes the finish properly.
The 8.8-Inch Compact Is Interesting for Different Reasons
The smaller model runs Snapdragon 8 Gen5 rather than Elite Gen5, which makes sense for the positioning — this isn’t trying to be a powerhouse workstation, it’s going for versatility. The soft-light screen version is the detail worth watching though. Eye-comfort displays have been a genuine differentiator in the Chinese tablet market, and bringing that to a compact form factor targets students and readers specifically.
Still in engineering prototype stage, so specs could shift before it lands.
OnePlus launches the big one first. The 8.8-inch follows when the Pro has had its moment. Smart sequencing, honestly — avoids both products cannibalizing each other’s launch coverage.
