Oppo Pad 3 specifications, features (expected)

Tipster Digital Chat Station claims via a Weibo post that the Oppo Pad 3 is likely to sport a 12.1-inch 3K (3,000 x 2,120 pixels) LCD screen with a 7:5 aspect ratio and 900 nits peak brightness level. The tablet is expected to be powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC paired with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of onboard storage. 

In the camera department, the Oppo Pad 3 is tipped to feature a 13-megapixel main rear camera and an 8-megapixel front camera sensor. The tablet is likely to be backed by a 9,510mAh battery with support for 67W wired fast charging. For security, it is said to feature a "fingerprint-free unlocking system" (translated from Chinese) which suggests it might offer a face unlock feature.

According to the leak, the Oppo Pad 3 is expected to feature a metal body. It is also likely to be launched alongside the Oppo Pencil 2. It is not clear if the stylus will be available in a bundle with the tablet or will need to be bought separately. The Oppo Pencil 2 is said to feature a linear motor for haptic feedback, similar to Apple's new Pencil Pro.

The Oppo Pad 3 is also expected to launch outside Chinese markets as a rebranded OnePlus Pad 2, since the OnePlus Pad launched as a rebadged version of the Oppo Pad 2.
