What reviewers say about the OnePlus Pad 2
Two whitelisted testers (Tom's Guide, GSMArena) lab-benchmarked the exact OnePlus Pad 2 (Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, 12.1-inch 3K). Both call it an excellent tablet with flagship performance, long battery life and loud speakers, but flag a mediocre rear camera. All measured values and quotes were confirmed as literal substrings of the fetched pages (GSMArena data verified across its multi-page review).

Where reviewers disagree Little cross-source disagreement. Both agree it is the best-in-class Android tablet but not a match for an M-series iPad on productivity. GSMArena measured 570 nits max manual brightness vs Tom's Guide's 580 nits (75% fill) — effectively the same result via different methodologies; both note it falls short of OnePlus's claimed 900 nits.

Display brightness (lab, tested): 580 nits · Battery life (web surfing over Wi-Fi @150 nits, tested): 14 hours 58 minutes · Geekbench 6 single-core: 2,033 · Geekbench 6 multi-core: 6,161 · Adobe Premiere Rush video transcode: 0:58 (58 seconds) · sRGB color gamut: 105.7% · DCI-P3 color gamut: 74.9% · Delta-E color accuracy: 0.25
The OnePlus Pad 2 is an excellent update to the original thanks to its strong performance, bright display, booming speakers and incredible battery life.
In our battery test involving continuous web surfing over Wi-Fi with the display set to 150 nits of brightness, the OnePlus Pad 2 lasted for an epic 14 hours and 58 minutes.
While it doesn't take horrible photos, don't expect anything on par with the best camera phones.

The OnePlus Pad 2 is an excellent mid-range tablet, one that offers flagship-grade performance, speakers and battery life.
These six speakers scored an Excellent mark for loudness on our test, as we suspected. The audio quality is unimpressive, though.
It does not offer good cameras, there is no biometric security, no cellular version, and no desktop-oriented features similar to DeX or Ready For.
