The premium Android tablet market has become more competitive, with brands now focusing on flagship performance, productivity features, and ecosystem integration. The OnePlus Pad 4 is the company’s most ambitious tablet yet, bringing top-tier hardware, a large high-refresh-rate display, powerful speakers, and software features designed to make it more than just a content consumption device.
Originally priced at Rs. 59,999, the OnePlus Pad 4 becomes an even more attractive proposition during the Independence Day Sale 2026, where the tablet is now available for Rs. 56,499. After spending time with the Dune Glow variant and the Stylo Pro, I put it through daily use to find out whether this premium Android tablet is worth buying at this price and if it can truly serve as a laptop replacement.
1A slim metal body that feels surprisingly premium
The first thing you notice about the OnePlus Pad 4 is how thin it feels. Despite housing a massive battery and a large 13.2-inch display, the tablet measures just 5.94mm in thickness and weighs 672g.
The metal unibody construction gives it a premium feel, and the weight distribution is excellent. Holding a tablet this large can often become uncomfortable after extended use, but OnePlus has done a good job balancing portability and screen size.
I received the Dune Glow colour variant, and it is easily one of the most attractive finishes available on an Android tablet. The warm bronze-like tone gives it a distinct identity compared to the usual silver and grey options. The Sage Mist variant offers a cooler, more understated look.
The design remains minimal, with flat edges, slim bezels, and a clean rear panel. The camera module sits neatly on the back, while the pogo pins allow connection with the Smart Keyboard accessory.
