The OnePlus Pad Go 2 is a 12 inch Android tablet that stands out for its 7 to 5 display, which gives more usable screen space for reading and multitasking than 16 to 10 designs. The Dimensity 7300 is described as decent for the price, with performance ahead of Samsung A11 class tablets and close to some lower midrange rivals. The main knocks are that $300 feels high next to faster iPad and Samsung options, and the WiFi model appears to lack microSD expansion in the USA. Update support also looks uncertain, making it a better fit for buyers who value the screen shape over top tier speed.
Common Questions (5)
The 7:5 panel gives more usable screen area than 16:10 on a similar 12-inch tablet, but movies and TV show more black bars than on 16:9 or 16:10 screens. It is better suited to reading and productivity than to maximizing video fill.
At $300, the Dimensity 7300 is viewed as decent but not class-leading; it is described as faster than Samsung's A11+ and Snapdragon 6 Gen 1, but slower than a Pixel Tablet and far behind iPad-class or higher-end Android tablets. Several comments suggest saving $100 for a cheaper A11 or spending about $100 more for an S-series or M3 iPad Air if you want noticeably better performance.
The USA WiFi-only unit reportedly has no microSD slot, and the official OnePlus site does not mention expandable storage. A tray image appears on GSMArena, so availability may vary by market or production run.
Starting in September 2026, Google plans stricter developer verification and a 24-hour waiting period for apps from unverified developers on certified Android devices. That can make sideloading harder and may affect emulators or other non-Play Store apps.
It should not be expected to get many OS updates, and one report says a device never received a single update. That makes long-term software support a concern if you plan to keep the tablet for years.

One more thing. Don't expect many OS updates. One guy on gsmarena reported that he never received a single OS update. So keep that in mind for what it's worth.
Some markets have it, some do not.
- Sideloading Lockdown (Sept 2026): Installing apps from developers not verified by Google will become much harder. Unverified apps will require a 24-hour "protective waiting period" during which a reboot takes place, specifically to curb malware and financial scams.
- Mandatory Developer Registration: Developers, including hobbyists or those using GitHub, must register, pay a fee, provide ID, and verify signing keys to install apps on certified Google devices.
- Android 16/17 Behavioral Restrictions:
- Android 16: Apps targeting API level 36+ will be forced into a "universal resizable" mode, ignoring fixed orientation or aspect ratios.
- Android 15+: Stricter limitations on BOOT_COMPLETED receivers for launching foreground services (e.g., dataSync, camera, media).
- Security Patch Endings: Support for Android 13 is ending in early 2026, following the end of support for Android 12, making older devices vulnerable.
- Regional Rollout: The strict verification rules will start in Brazil, Indonesia, Singapore, and Thailand in September 2026 before going global by 2027.Android Developers +7
These changes represent a significant tightening of Android's open ecosystem, making it more similar to the restricted environment of iOS.Sign up for a Slickdeals account to remove this ad.
This could be the first step into combining Android and Chrome. I believe this is all relegated to Samsung... how Samsung has been fighting with GOogle for over ten years on Android. To tighten in Samsung, google needed to create a need to have more control over the OS.

Apple's hardware is unequal at this price point.
I prefer Oneplus to Samsung or Lenovo. With a Dimensity 7300... you are still getting decent performance. This chip is faster then Samsung's A11+ android tablet. It is also faster (about 10% faster) then Snap Dragon 6 Gen 1.
I understand this is not flag ship speeds, but show me a tablet that is $300 or less then is "faster" then this tablet, and i don't think you can... at least right now.
If you can handle the aspect ratio, I think this is a solid buy. The only tablet that I can think of getting instead of this one is the Google Pixel Tablet with the G2 chip... which is about 10% faster then the 7300 (this deal). When on sale the Pixel tablet can be found as cheap as $250.00.

Well, said. But look at the ipad, apple has not changed it's aspect ratio. I personally have a 16:9 tablet that has an OLED screen which can do 1600nits.
