Is the OnePlus Pad Go 2 worth it?

Yes โ€” a great mid-range Android tablet.

It has a larger 12.1-inch screen in a tall 7:5 shape that suits reading and split-screen, a faster chip than before, up to 15 hours of video and OnePlus's easy Open Canvas multitasking. A 5G version lets you use it away from Wi-Fi. The speakers are only fine, the accessories feel unfinished, it picks up fingerprints, and Android still has fewer tablet-made apps than an iPad.

How we reached this verdict

TechRadar calls it a thoughtful upgrade with the right features for entertainment and work, praising the larger, brighter screen, longer battery and Open Canvas. BGR says it undercuts Samsung with a large display, competent performance and excellent battery, but the accessories feel underdeveloped and the audio won't impress. We found no verified owner reviews at an allowed shop yet.

We compared independent expert reviews with the manufacturer's specifications, then checked it's sold at a major retailer where you live. We don't test products ourselves.
