The launch is planned⁢ to coincide ⁢with the release of‌ the OPPO Find X9 Ultra, which is rumored to include a dual 200MP Hasselblad camera system and‍ a new multispectral sensor for improved color accuracy, and the OPPO Watch X3.

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