OnePlus has officially pulled the curtains back on its next big tablet — the OnePlus Pad 4 — with a confirmed India launch on April 30, 2026, at 12:00 PM IST. After weeks of cryptic teasers featuring the tagline “You’re not ready for this” and “No compromises,” the company has now dropped key specifications through social media posts and a dedicated landing page on Amazon India (and reportedly Flipkart). This is shaping up to be OnePlus’s most ambitious Android tablet yet, directly taking on the iPad Pro and Samsung Galaxy Tab S series with flagship power and marathon battery life.
The design teaser shows a premium, ultra-slim metal unibody in a rich Mocha Brown finish (described by some as “chocolate-like”), complete with a distinctive pill-shaped rear camera island — a look that mirrors the upcoming OPPO Pad 5 Pro. OnePlus is clearly doubling down on a premium, productivity-first experience.
Design & Build Quality
- Premium all-metal construction for durability and premium feel
- Ultra-slim profile ideal for one-handed use, travel, or desk setups
- Expected color options: Mocha Brown (confirmed in teasers), possibly additional shades like Titanium or Green
- Full accessory ecosystem support: OnePlus Stylo Pro stylus (high pressure sensitivity) and magnetic keyboard for laptop-like productivity
Display: Cinema-Grade Immersion
- 13.2-inch panel
- 3.4K resolution for razor-sharp details
- 144Hz refresh rate for ultra-smooth scrolling and gaming
- Likely high-brightness LCD (or advanced LCD tech) with excellent color accuracy and wide viewing angles
This is the same stunning screen size and resolution family as the Pad 3, but now tuned even further for media consumption, creative work, and multitasking with OxygenOS’s Open Canvas feature.
Performance: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Beast Mode
Powering the OnePlus Pad 4 is the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset — an upgraded version of the already mighty 8 Elite. Early Geekbench results for the Indian variant (model OPD2514) show:
- Single-core: ~3,467
- Multi-core: ~10,377
Paired with 12GB LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512GB storage, expect flagship-level gaming, seamless 3–4 app multitasking, AI features, and future-proof performance for the next 4–5 years. Android 16 with OxygenOS 16 will bring smarter OnePlus AI tools for note-taking, summarization, and cross-device connectivity with OnePlus phones and earbuds.
Battery Life That Redefines Tablets
This is the headline-grabber: a massive 13,380mAh battery — one of the largest in any premium Android tablet. It supports 80W SUPERVOOC fast charging, promising a full charge in under an hour and multi-day usage even for power users. Whether you’re binge-watching 4K content, sketching for hours, or running intensive apps, the Pad 4 is built to keep going without compromise.
Cameras, Audio & Extras
- 13MP rear camera in the new pill-shaped module (great for document scanning and quick shots)
- High-quality front camera optimized for video calls and meetings
- Eight-speaker system with immersive Dolby Atmos support for rich, room-filling sound
Pricing, Availability & Launch Event
While exact pricing is yet to be revealed, the OnePlus Pad 4 is expected to be aggressively positioned as a value flagship — likely undercutting iPad Pro equivalents while offering superior battery life and Android flexibility. Pre-orders and full pricing will drop during the April 30 launch event, which will be livestreamed on OnePlus India’s YouTube and social channels.
The tablet will be available first in India via Amazon and Flipkart, with global availability expected shortly after.
Why the OnePlus Pad 4 Could Be 2026’s Best Android Tablet
OnePlus is entering the tablet game with zero compromises this time: class-leading battery, next-gen Snapdragon power, a gorgeous large display, and a complete productivity ecosystem. For students, professionals, creators, and entertainment lovers in India who want a true iPad alternative without the ecosystem lock-in, the Pad 4 looks like a no-brainer.
