While there are a fortune of similarities between the two , peculiarly when it comes to overall innovation and seem , there are key differences that might sway your buying decision one manner or the other .
We ’ve spent a lot of time with theOnePlus Pad , and we ’ve gone hand - on with theOnePlus Pad Go , so we ’ve got a safe estimate of what ’s on offer from both . Without further ado , here are the key deviation between the OnePlus Pad Go and OnePlus Pad .
The OnePlus Pad Go has a smaller screen
The OnePlus Pad Go has a smaller filmdom than the OnePlus Pad , and while that may sound like a negative at first glance , it does make the OnePlus Pad Go a little more bag - friendly – though avowedly there is n’t much in it , with the Pad Go measuring in at 11.3 inch while the regular Pad come in at 11.6 in .
However , in most other metrics , the OnePlus Pad has the better screen of the two . While both apply IPS LCD tech , the OnePlus Pad is faster , high res and offers better format compatibility with a 144Hz refresh rate , 2000 x 2800 closure and supporting for HDR10 + content .
The OnePlus Pad Go , on the other manus , cap out at 90Hz , and has a slightly broken 1720 x 2408 resolution . Its bezels are also slightly thicker than the OnePlus Pad , but not to a detectable level .
The OnePlus Pad is more powerful
Being the more premium of the two tablets , it should n’t come as much surprise that the OnePlus Pad has more power under the hood . That comes in the form of the MediaTek Dimenity 8000 coupled with 12 GB of RAM .
The OnePlus Pad Go opts for the less muscular MediaTek Helio G99 and 8 GB of RAM as standard . While it ’s not quite as powerful as its bigger brother , at £ 299 , that ’s a reasonably tempting compounding of spectacles liken to other likewise priced cheap tablets , and we ’ve found in early examination that general carrying out is pretty smooth , though there is the occasional bit of lag .
The OnePlus Pad has a larger battery
Despite the similar dimensions between the two pad , the OnePlus Pad has a heavy battery – and by quite a bit too . The OnePlus Pad Go boasts a solid 8000mAh battery that ’s reasonably much in line with the likewise price competition , while the OnePlus Pad take it up a notch to 9510mAh .
But while this suggest that the OnePlus Pad will offer beneficial assault and battery life , the less power - hungry chipset from the OnePlus Pad Go could signify it hold out a little longer between charges . It will take a while to charge up though , support just 33W charging compared to the 67W charging from the regular Pad .

The OnePlus Pad , on the other hand , has an RRP of £ 449 , making it £ 150 more expensive than the Pad Go .
What confuses this somewhat is the fact thatOnePlus itselfis sell the regular OnePlus Pad at a discounted damage , down to £ 379 at the time of writing , which considerably muddies the water between the two . If you’re able to get so much more for just £ 80 more , why choose for the Go ? That remains to be seen .
