The premium Android tablet space has started seeing more meaningful upgrades lately, and the OnePlus Pad 4 appears to be part of that transition. Ahead of its official launch, the tablet has surfaced with flagship-grade hardware, a slimmer body, and a stronger focus on productivity. After spending some time with the device, the OnePlus Pad 4 gives the impression of a tablet that wants to do far more than basic entertainment and casual browsing.

The tablet runs OxygenOS 16, which includes several features designed specifically for larger screens. Multi-window functionality has been improved, allowing users to work across multiple floating apps more comfortably. File management tools have also been redesigned for easier navigation, while cross-device connectivity features aim to create a smoother workflow between smartphones, tablets, and PCs.
OnePlus is also introducing the new OnePlus Stylo Pro alongside the tablet. The stylus supports 16,000 levels of pressure sensitivity and comes with interchangeable tips designed for different use cases. The Writing Tip uses a high-friction material that is said to absorb up to 90 per cent of writing impact for a more paper-like feel, while the Drawing Tip uses a low-friction material aimed at smoother sketching movements. The stylus also supports gesture controls such as pinch, double-tap, and swipe gestures, adding extra shortcuts for productivity and creative tasks. The company is clearly positioning the tablet as a device that can handle both entertainment and productivity-focused workflows.
