OPPO has now launched its much-teased tablet, the OPPO Pad. The OPPO Pad makes its debut as a direct competitor to the Mi Pad 5 Pro in China, and slings a Snapdragon 870, 2.5K 120 Hz display, and a starting price tag that converts into less than US$400.

Yesterday, along with the OPPO Find X5 series, OPPO debuted its first ever tablet, the OPPO Pad. The OPPO Pad is positioned strongly in the upper mid-range and will vie for supremacy against Xiaomi's Mi Pad 5 series in China.

The OPPO Pad sports an 11-inch 2.5K 120 Hz LCD. AMOLED is a miss here but it's also absent on the tablet's closest competitor, the Mi Pad 5 Pro. Under the hood is a Snapdragon 870, with up to 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage for support. At the OPPO Pad's rear is a 13 MP rear camera, while there's an 8 MP selfie shooter at the front.

OPPO is shipping the OPPO Pad with ColorOS for Pad, a similar idea to Xiaomi's MIUI 13 for Pad on the Mi Pad 5 series. The OPPO Pad lands with an OPPO Pencil with what appears to be 240 Hz responsivity. The tablet is powered by an 8360 mAh battery and supports 33 W charging.

The OPPO Pad is available in black and purple, as well as silver in a limited edition. The 6/128 GB costs CNY 2,299 (US$365), while the 8/256 GB SKU will set buyers back CNY 2,999 (US$475). Quite affordable, although prices will likely be a lot higher if it ever launches on the global market.

Buy the Samsung Galaxy A8 on Amazon.
