Reviewing the OnePlus Pad Go, a more budgetfriendly version of the original Android tablet that just launched in the UK. This £299 skinny slab is cheaper, but the OnePlus Pad Go also compromises with performance and that display, which is less stunning than the first tablet. Gamers, movie fans, photo editors etc should look to spend a bit more instead.

The OnePlus Pad Go still looks and feels good, with a slightly more compact design and a fresh twotone finish. On the software front it's OxygenOS 13, with old Android no Android 14 action just yet. Here's hoping that upgrade comes soon!

And also, sad news on the accessory front. The OnePlus Pad Go doesn't support that keyboard or stylus of the original tablet. So no, you can't turn it into a mini makeshift laptop on the go.

Gaming is possible on the OnePlus Pad Go although you'll want to stick to more basic apps like Call of Duty and PubG. Anything particularly taxing like Genshin Impact is a nogo. Battery life however seems to be better than before, possibly thanks to that more basic, energy efficient Helio chipset.
