Following the launch of the Pad 3 and Pad 3 Pro tablets, Chinese tech giant Oppo appears to be prepping an even wider range of options under the Pad 3 series. According to a Weibo post by reliable tipster Digital Chat Station, there are two new models of the Pad 3 in the works – the Pad 3 Ultra and Pad 3 mini.

The leak suggests that the Pad 3 Ultra will be a true flagship offering in the large-screen category. It’s rumored to boast a flexible OLED display with minimal bezels.
Additionally, the Pad 3 Ultra is said to come equipped with a side-mounted fingerprint scanner for secure access and a sizeable 10,000 mAh battery, backed by impressive 100W fast charging technology.
On the other end of the spectrum, the Pad 3 mini will cater to those seeking a powerful device in a compact form factor. It is tipped to feature a customized LCD display with a high refresh rate and rounded corners.
Under the hood, Oppo is expected to use a MediaTek Dimensity 9-series SoC. While the exact chipset remains under wrap, it will be a flagship-grade, even if not necessarily the latest. The tipster also mentions that the Pad 3 Mini will not support 100W fast charging.
While the specs look promising, these tablets are unlikely to hit shelves anytime soon. The leak points to a tentative launch window in Q2 or Q3 of 2025.
Of course, leaks are just leaks. Until Oppo officially confirms these devices, take these specs with a grain of salt. Still, if you’re in the market for a new tablet and the current Pad 3 series doesn’t quite hit the mark, the Pad 3 Ultra and Pad 3 mini could be worth keeping an eye on in the coming year.
