A report from tipster Digital Chat Station earlier this week claimed that Oppo is working on a compact flagship tablet with an 8.8-inch OLED display. At the time, the tipster mentioned that the device would be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset.
In a new update, however, the tipster now claims that the tablet will instead use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor, reportedly to make it more affordable.
OnePlus is launching a phone with Snapdragon 8 Gen 5
Qualcomm has yet to take the wraps off the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, although the company did tease it during the 8 Elite Gen 5 launch in September.
The chip maker confirmed that it will share more details about the chip later this year, but didn’t provide a specific launch timeframe.
During a recent launch event, though, OnePlus executive Li Jie Louis said that OnePlus will be the first brand to use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 platform. He also confirmed that the chipset is built on a 3nm process and features Oryon CPU cores.
It could be that Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 may not get a standalone launch event and could instead debut alongside the phone itself. It’s expected to power an upcoming Ace-series phone, which might launch globally as the OnePlus 15R.
Getting back to the tablet, Digital Chat Station also notes that it will feature a slim body and a moderate-sized battery. Unfortunately, the tipster didn’t share any additional details about the device or what it might be called.
Previously, the same source suggested that the tablet could launch alongside Oppo’s next compact flagship phone. Based on rumors, the company may unveil the Find X9S by early Q2 2026 in China. If that timeline holds, the yet-to-be-named compact tablet will likely debut alongside the Find X9s.
