One Plus Pad 2 Review

[@adamkaufman7463]

I think the biggest thing that separates this tablet for me that wasn't mentioned, is their Open Canvas. Opening your drawing app, swiping down with two fingers, and adding a tucked second (or third) window/app for your reference material while drawing is a huge deal for me. Especially for 3D work. They really nailed it with Oxygen OS 👍

[@MihaSvajger]

I do recomend the tab 2. I had a problem choosing the best tablet, and my decision of buying the oneplus turned out to be great.

Hello, Brad! I have a request, can you make a comparison between Huawei Matepad 11.5"s and iPad Nano Texture Glass? They have matte and anti-reflective coating especially Huawei is promoting it together with their new drawing app, GoPaint. I've tried Huawei Matepad 11.5"s and GoPaint app, they are amazing! Even though there are only basic features for now but the drawing feel is quite comparable to Procreate, also Huawei matte texture feel smooth. I want to know how it compares to the iPad Nano Texture which is much more expensive than Huawei. Thank you.

[@TyrooShino]

A major turn off for me is the lack of SD card slot. Id love to invest in one plus as an ecosystem. I believe with their ethics and selling their products at a good price to part ratio (unlike scam from Apple and slight hike from Samsung) With what One Plus is offering, they essentially give you a deluxe experience, for a REAL price. As it stand major brands are just hiking the price without any reason. They now seek "AI" as a way to justify the price, despite it being trash.

[@JimIBobIJones]

As someone coming over from a galaxy tab s7 and Dex mode, I think the keyboard cover is a "meh" accessory here. Not because the form factor isn't great, but because OnePlus doesn't have a desktop mode. The standard android UI isn't the most intuitive to use with a keyboard and mouse.

Thanks for this reveiw

[@isthatxavier92]

is the price REASONABLE enough for some major issues the pad has? If you ever revisit this pad I have some material that is IMPORTANT for the world to learn: As an early adopter of the OnePlus Pad 2, Keyboard, and Stylo, I’ve encountered a major flaw with the keyboard. After a short time of use, the magnets holding the Pad and keyboard together began detaching silently, causing deep scratches on my brand-new Pad. The scratches occurred because I kept the Pad attached to the original keyboard and back cover. This appears to be a manufacturing defect, and I’ve reported it to OnePlus. While they’ve agreed to "investigate," they are refusing to accept one accessory (Stylo 2) for return, and I’m uncertain about getting a full refund. I’ve found other users reporting similar issues, with screens and frames also scratched by the keyboard. It’s shocking for an original accessory to cause so much damage. Has anyone else experienced something like this?

What I don't really get is why it's always compared to mid tier tablets (galaxy Tab S8 Fe) even tho everything except the screen is high end? I have a Galaxy Tab S8+ and gonna replace it with the OnePlus Pad since I love the smoothness and Oxygen OS with features such as Open Canvas (Multitasking)

[@edeka3]

I have no clue. Oneplus nailed it with this one. Obviously you can't expect an OLED screen at that price point, but for an LCD screen this looks damn fine.

[@fablewalls]

One thing in the final round-up iPad Air vs One Plus Pad 2 vs Samsung S9 FE is aspect ratio. I have an S8 and while I love it - the aspect ratio is not something I would ever pick as a selling point. I've always preferred the iPad 4:3 type of ratio for art.

[@Jerry_quesoso]

Agree, 4:3 is the best aspect ratio for smaller screens when it comes to digital art. Too bad I hate the Apple Pencil because of its weight that makes it uncomfortable for my hand...

[@panjak323]

The audio, especially bass sounds really distorted on this tablet. 8 Gen 3 in this tablet is much slower than a freaking Xiaomi 14 phone even with max perf mode. UI scaling is terrible, and even "small" is really just for old people. Setting DPI manually works, but after reset it is gone. Auto rotate sucks... When you are in horizontal mode, apps will just randomly force vertical mode (3dmark...), those apps cannot be forced to "centered" in settings, this makes the experience really painful. Will try more tomorrow. But so far it seems you cannot root the tablet, because OP doesn't provide standalone firmware to download, not even system update app provides downloading full rom package.

[@youarebymyside]

Man, the politics of buying the pen separately and it costing SO. MUCH.? Yikes. I feel like I'll have to go with s9 FE, after all. Sigh.

[@MaheerKibria]

For art it's all about the pen. If the processor is slow it's annoying but if the pen sucks it's worse. I personally use an iPad because it has the majority of the market share so it gets the latest features and the most apps. And it's pen is as good as it gets.
