breaking: OPPO isโ€‹ preparing to launch a new generation Pad alongside its next โคflagshipโข smartphone and a new smartwatch in early 2026, according to recent reports. The new tablet is expected to run ColorOS 16, based on Androidโฃ 16, andโ€ potentially offer enhanced interoperability with iPhones.

The โฃupcoming OPPO Pad is speculated to be a larger device, distinct from the rumored OnePlus Pad 3 Mini, which is โ€‹anticipated to be a “compact tablet” featuring the Snapdragon 8 Elite Genโฃ 2. The potential forโฃ cross-platform functionality, mirroring Apple’s ecosystem features, is a โขkey aspect of the new ColorOS 16 implementation. This could include features allowing seamless pairing โฃand file sharing with iPhones.

ColorOS โค16,builtโค on Android 16,aims toโข provide a multi-platform interface comparable to Apple’s iPadOS. The new tablet’s โ€‹capabilities may extend to advanced features like โฃbypassing charging limitations and enabling file transfers, similar to those recently introduced on the OnePlus 13R.

The launch is plannedโข to coincide โขwith the release ofโ€Œ the OPPO Find X9 Ultra, which is rumored to include a dual 200MP Hasselblad camera system andโ€ a new multispectral sensor for improved color accuracy, and the OPPO Watch X3.

Currently, the oneplus Pad 3 is available on amazon for โข$649.99. The device features a 144Hz 4K LCD โ€display and is powered byโ€‹ the Snapdragon 8 gen 2 processor, along with quad-speaker setup and an aluminum alloy build.
