OnePlus Pad, Magnetic Keypad and Stylo

Great laptop substitute for your non core work requirements

- GIRISH MALLYA

We reviewed the top end halo green matte colour tablet combined with a well coordinated magnetic keypad and a digital stylus named Stylo. The OnePlus tab comes with 11.6-inch screen and 144Hz refresh rate, Dolby Atmos-powered quad-speaker set-up, MediaTek Dimensity 9000 system-on-chip, and 67W fast wired charging. It has all the required hardware specs, to make a great tablet.

The tablet works perfectly for watching audio visual content, the quad speaker set does enhance the overall viewing experience, but on flights you will not be able to use a wired 3.5mm jack headset. It works seamlessly for most home and regular use cases, and is good enough if you don’t have to do some intense spreadsheet work. But it’s a great device to use while working from a cafe or a flight or when one is on the move, and it’s about one third the weight of a regular high end laptop. It’s a great device to use for client presentations, as it’s premium and looks at par with similar Apple devices, and it works well for all the standard online meeting and most collaboration tool apps. The OnePlus Pad has a 9510mAh battery, which is substantial and it can easily take about 13hrs of video or similar high power use cases. The pad charges to about 50% level in 30minutes and a full charge takes about 80minutes with the VOOC charger bundled with the tablet.
