Oppo has launched its new Pad 5 tablet, which features a powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor and up to 16 GB of RAM, as the company adjusts to a DRAM shortage (notebookcheck.net). The device also includes a large 13,380-mAh battery with 67-W fast charging, making it suitable for extended use. The 13.2-inch IPS display offers a high resolution of 3,392 × 2,400 pixels and a 144 Hz refresh rate, enhancing both visual quality and responsiveness. The tablet is equipped with eight speakers, Wi-Fi 7, and a USB-C port supporting 5 Gbit/s speeds, providing a comprehensive set of connectivity options.
The Pad 5’s design includes a slim metal chassis, combining durability with a modern aesthetic. It also supports a wide DCI-P3 color gamut and achieves 1,000 nits of brightness, ensuring visibility even in bright environments. These features position the Pad 5 as a competitive offering in the premium tablet market, despite the ongoing DRAM supply challenges. Oppo’s decision to reduce reliance on certain components reflects broader industry adjustments to current market conditions.
