OnePlus is holding a new December promotion with many of its products receiving sizable discounts. For a limited time, the OnePlus Pad 3 is on sale for $580, a solid $120 price drop. No special code is required at checkout. It's instantly applied.

With purchase, you'll receive two free gifts: the OnePlus Pioneer Shoulder Bag ($39.99) or the OnePlus Pad 3 Folio Case ($49.99). That's $90 worth of products at no extra cost. Be aware that there's only one configuration of the tablet available. The OnePlus Pad 3 is available in Storm Blue, features 12GB of RAM, and comes with a 256GB SSD.

Through OnePlus' trade-in program, you can save even more money on the tablet. Trade in any device in any condition and shave off an additional $50, lowering the OnePlus Pad 3's $580 price tag to $530. So, if you put everything together, you could save up to $260 on the bundle.

The OnePlus Pad 3 has earned its place as one of the most compelling Android tablets of 2025. It houses premium hardware, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, a powerful chipset capable of handling just about anything and everything you throw at it.

Review: OnePlus Pad 3

OnePlus' device also has a sleek design and a high-resolution 13.2-inch display. It's not an OLED screen, mind you. But the IPS LCD is still great, boasting a high pixel density of 3,392 x 2,400 for crystal clear images. The 144Hz refresh rate delivers smooth on-screen animations, a perfect speed for both streaming movies and playing games.

Alongside all this hardware is a 12,140mAh battery that lasted over 13 hours straight during our testing. When supported by accessories like the Smart Keyboard and Stylo 2 pen, the OnePlus Pad 3 could outright replace your laptop.

How I rated this deal

$120 off a $700 tablet is a roughly 17% discount. It's decent by itself; however, you also need to consider the other offers. If you take advantage of OnePlus' trade-in program and grab two gifts, you'll actually save a total of $260 on the bundle. Combining all the discounts, I give this deal a perfect score of 5/5, as per ZDNET's rating system.

This is the best deal that I have seen for the OnePlus Pad 3 in 2025. I highly recommend the device, especially if you're in the market for a new top-notch Android bundle, but don't wait too long.
