The OPPO Pad SE is built around an 11-inch LCD Eye-Care display with a 16:10 aspect ratio, making it ideal for both entertainment and productivity. The screen offers up to 500 nits of peak brightness and comes with dual TÜV Rheinland certifications for low blue light emission and flicker-free visuals, ensuring minimal eye strain during prolonged usage.

Supporting 33W SuperVOOC fast charging, the tablet ensures minimal downtime. It also features Smart Power Saving Mode, which powers off the device automatically after 7 days of inactivity, and offers up to 800 days of intelligent standby time—a major plus for occasional users.

Performance and Software

While OPPO has not officially confirmed the processor for the Indian variant, the global model launched in China features the Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 chipset paired with the Adreno 610 GPU. It is expected that the Indian variant will offer similar performance, optimized for day-to-day tasks, streaming, reading, and light gaming. The Pad SE also supports 36-month Fluency Protection, promising smooth performance even after years of use.

Camera and Audio

Though photography isn’t the focus of most tablets, the OPPO Pad SE includes a 5MP front and rear camera setup, suitable for video calls, document scanning, and basic captures. The device is also likely to include quad-speaker stereo sound, tuned for immersive audio playback—especially while consuming content or attending online meetings.

Storage and Variants

In China, the OPPO Pad SE is available in multiple configurations, including 4GB/128GB, 6GB/128GB, and 8GB/256GB. While the Indian variant’s configurations are yet to be confirmed, it is expected that OPPO will launch at least two variants in the country to cater to a wide range of users.

Price and Availability

The India pricing of the OPPO Pad SE is yet to be officially revealed. However, based on its Chinese pricing, which starts at CNY 899 (~₹10,800) and goes up to CNY 1,399 (~₹16,800), it is expected to launch in India under ₹15,000, positioning it as a strong contender in the budget tablet segment.

The tablet will be available in Starlight Silver and Twilight Blue colour options.

Conclusion

With the launch of the OPPO Pad SE, OPPO is aiming to deliver a well-balanced tablet for budget-conscious Indian consumers. The large battery, TÜV-certified display, long standby time, and slim design make it ideal for students, casual users, and professionals seeking an affordable entertainment or productivity companion. As competition heats up in the entry-level Android tablet space, the Pad SE could emerge as a standout choice for those seeking reliability and performance in a stylish package.
