Hardwar
At the core of the OnePlus Pad 2 is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, the same flagship processor found in the Galaxy S24 Ultra, ensuring top-tier performance. The tablet is available in 8GB/128GB and 12GB/256GB configurations, with LPDDR5X RAM. However, it’s important to note that the storage is UFS 3.1, which is a step down from the latest UFS 4.0 standard.
Camera and Battery
The OnePlus Pad 2 is equipped with a 13-megapixel rear camera and an 8-megapixel front-facing camera, offering solid imaging capabilities. Audio performance is enhanced by six built-in speakers, though the absence of a headphone jack may be a drawback for some users. The tablet is powered by a robust 9,510 mAh battery, supporting 67W fast charging, and unlike many devices today, it includes a charger in the box.
Performance Verdict
If you’re in the market for a tablet to serve as a secondary device or as an extension of your workstation, the OnePlus Pad 2 is an excellent choice. It’s lightweight, powerful, and delivers impressive clarity and sound. Similar to the OnePlus Nord 4, it offers many flagship features without the flagship price tag.
OnePlus Watch 2R Review
We also tested the newly launched OnePlus Watch 2R alongside the OnePlus Pad 2. The wearable features a redesigned dial, easily removable straps, dual push buttons, and more. The OnePlus Watch 2R boasts a sleek, premium design with subtle updates compared to the OnePlus Watch 2, which launched earlier this year. It maintains its impressive 46mm size as the only available option. The watch is available in two stylish colors—Forest Green and Gunmetal Gray—and is priced at Rs 17,999.
One of the standout features of the OnePlus Watch 2R is its impressive battery life. According to OnePlus, the watch offers between 48 and 100 hours of use on a single charge, depending on usage. With GPS, always-on display, and various fitness features active, we achieved over 2.5 days of battery life. When it’s time to recharge, the Watch 2R can go from 0% to 100% in just one hour.
For Android users seeking a mid-range smartwatch with outstanding battery longevity, the OnePlus Watch 2R is a top contender. It’s worth visiting a store to experience it firsthand before making your purchase.
