OnePlus is ready to expand its tablet lineup in India with the launch of the much-awaited OnePlus Pad 3. The company had already confirmed its arrival back in July, and now updated microsites on Amazon India and Flipkart make it official — the tablet will go on sale in September 2025.
Variants and Colour Options
The OnePlus Pad 3 will come in two configurations — 12GB RAM with 256GB storage and 16GB RAM with 512GB storage. Buyers will also get to choose between two elegant colour options: Frosted Silver and Storm Blue.
It’s worth noting that this will be a Wi-Fi–only model in India, so there won’t be SIM support. Along with the tablet, OnePlus will sell separate accessories including the OnePlus Stylo 2, OnePlus Smart Keyboard, and OnePlus Folio Case.
Sleek Design Meets Powerful Performance
At just 5.97mm thick, the OnePlus Pad 3 keeps things slim and stylish with an all-metal unibody design. Under the hood, it is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Mobile Platform, delivering a 45% faster CPU, 40% faster GPU, and a 300% faster NPU compared to its predecessor. On benchmarks, it has already notched an impressive AnTuTu score of 2,947,633.
The tablet also boasts a massive 12,140mAh battery, the largest in its category, which OnePlus claims can handle 18 hours of video playback, 6 hours of AAA gaming, and recharges quickly with 80W fast charging.
Stunning Display and Immersive Audio
The OnePlus Pad 3 sports a vibrant 3.4K display with 315 PPI, a smooth 144Hz refresh rate, 12-bit colour depth, Dolby Vision HDR, and up to 900 nits peak brightness — making it a treat for both work and entertainment.
Audio is equally impressive, thanks to an eight-speaker setup with Hi-Res Audio and LHDC support, giving users a cinema-like experience right from the tablet.
AI-Powered Features
This tablet isn’t just about hardware; it comes loaded with smart tools like AI Translation, AI Summary, AI Writer, AI Speak, and Circle to Search. It also includes Google Gemini integration and a dedicated AI button for quick access to these features.
Seamless Cross-Device Connectivity
The OnePlus Pad 3 is designed to work effortlessly across devices. It syncs with OnePlus smartphones for features like notifications, video sharing, clipboard sync, and app relay. It also supports remote connections with Mac devices, letting users drag and drop files, use native gestures, and control privacy settings with ease.
The OnePlus Pad 3 is shaping up to be a strong competitor in the premium tablet market. With its slim 5.97mm design, Snapdragon 8 Elite power, 12,140mAh battery, and AI-driven features, it blends performance with convenience. Its arrival in September 2025 through Amazon India and Flipkart makes it one of the most exciting tech launches to watch this year.
