The OnePlus Pad 4: a convincing Android alternative to the iPad Pro

The OnePlus Pad 4 stands out not merely because of its display size, but because of the performance packed into a device weighing 672g and measuring just 5.94mm thick. Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 is the key component, pairing an eight-core Oryon CPU with an Adreno 840 GPU. In practical terms, it is equipped for video editing, demanding 3D games and intensive multitasking.

In its most powerful configuration, 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB of UFS 4.1 storage let you handle plenty of files without having to constantly keep an eye on remaining capacity. Its internal storage is fast, while the platform supports tasks that would still have required a laptop only a few years ago. OnePlus also claims an AnTuTu V11 score above 4.1 million points for the 12GB/512GB version, although results may differ depending on testing conditions.

Performance and cooling for demanding tasks

The Cryo-velocity cooling system combines a 40,760mm² vapour chamber with graphite materials to dissipate heat. This is especially valuable during extended video rendering or a lengthy gaming session, when both the processor and GPU are under heavy load for several dozen minutes. Photography is clearly not the main reason to buy a 13.2-inch tablet, yet the OnePlus Pad 4 can still prove useful. Its 13MP rear camera can quickly capture a document, whiteboard or object, while the 8MP front-facing camera is primarily intended for video calls.

For Google Meet or Zoom video meetings, the larger format is also much more comfortable than a smartphone. The display is not a compromise designed solely for office work, either. Its 13.2-inch LCD panel delivers a 3,392 x 2,400 resolution, an adaptive 144Hz refresh rate, 98% DCI-P3 coverage and up to 1,000 nits in HBM. This provides a particularly roomy workspace and high resolution for editing, retouching and gaming.

Connectivity, battery life and software support

Its connectivity follows the same premium approach, with Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0 and a USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 port. The 13,380mAh battery supports charging at up to 80W, and OnePlus states that it can deliver up to 20 hours of video playback. The tablet also supports the Stylo Pro and Smart Keyboard for more advanced creative and professional use, although these are sold separately. It runs Android 16 with OxygenOS 16, and the brand promises 3 years of major updates plus 6 years of security patches.

It is simply worth remembering that an Android tablet cannot replace a Windows PC for every professional application. For office work, content creation, multimedia and gaming, however, the Pad 4 has more than enough to earn its place, with performance that puts it clearly above a conventional Android tablet.
