The OnePlus Pad Lite has a footprint of 254.9 x 166.5 mm with a 7.4 mm thickness and a total volume of 314.06 cm³, while tipping the scales at 530 g. The tablet does not include a stylus, a detachable keyboard, or backlit keyboard support, and it offers no water resistance rating. Tilt sensitivity is also absent, rounding out a design that keeps accessories and environmental protection to a minimum.
The OnePlus Pad Lite features an 11″ IPS LCD touchscreen with a resolution of 1920 x 1200 px and a pixel density of 207 ppi, paired with a 90Hz refresh rate for smoother on-screen motion. The panel includes an anti-reflection coating but lacks branded damage-resistant glass and sapphire glass protection. HDR10, HDR10+, and Dolby Vision are not supported, and the display is not an e-paper type.
The OnePlus Pad Lite is powered by the MediaTek Helio G100 system-on-chip, built on a 6 nm process with an octa-core CPU configuration of 2 x 2.2 GHz and 6 x 2 GHz cores, 8 threads, and a 5W TDP. It employs big.LITTLE technology along with Heterogeneous Multi-Processing (HMP) and includes integrated LTE directly on the SoC. The tablet ships with 8GB of RAM running at 4266 MHz, supports up to 12GB maximum memory, and offers a maximum memory bandwidth of 17.1 GB/s, alongside 128GB of internal storage. Graphics are handled by the Mali G57 GPU clocked at 1000 MHz, with support for DirectX 11, OpenGL ES 3.2, and OpenCL 2. The chipset supports 64-bit processing and ARM TrustZone security, and the device runs Android 15.
Both the rear and front cameras on the OnePlus Pad Lite resolve at 5 MP, with the main camera capable of recording video at 1080p and 30 fps. The rear sensor is a CMOS type without back-side illumination, and it offers no optical zoom. Manual controls available on the main camera include focus, exposure, white balance, and ISO, while touch autofocus and continuous autofocus during video recording are also supported. Flash, HDR mode, slow-motion recording, timelapse, panorama, burst mode, optical image stabilization, and 3D capture are all absent, and neither HDR10 nor Dolby Vision recording is supported. The front camera has no LED flash, and manual shutter speed is not available on either camera.
The OnePlus Pad Lite includes stereo speakers but omits a 3.5 mm headphone jack and has no built-in radio. On the wireless audio side, none of the Qualcomm aptX variants — including aptX, aptX HD, aptX Low Latency, aptX Adaptive, and aptX Lossless — are supported, and Sony's LDAC codec is likewise absent.
The OnePlus Pad Lite houses a 9340 mAh rechargeable battery with a battery level indicator, though it does not support fast charging or wireless charging. The battery is non-removable, meaning it cannot be replaced by the user.
The OnePlus Pad Lite supports Wi-Fi 4 (802.11n) and Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) along with Bluetooth 5.2, a cellular module with a single SIM slot, and GPS for positioning, though 5G, NFC, HDMI output, Ethernet, and Wi-Fi password sharing are not available. The USB Type-C port runs at USB 2.0, with download and upload speeds reaching 650 Mbits/s and 150 Mbits/s respectively. On the software side, the tablet offers a broad set of features including split-screen multitasking, picture-in-picture, dark mode, dynamic theming, theme customization, widgets, media picker, full-page screenshots, customizable notifications, notification permissions, extra dim mode, battery health check, child lock, multi-user support, and the ability to play games while downloading. Privacy controls cover location options, camera and microphone access management, clipboard warnings, and app tracking blocking, though Mail Privacy Protection, cross-site tracking blocking, and direct OS vendor updates are absent. The device also includes an accelerometer, on-device machine learning, offline voice recognition, voice commands, sharing intents, app offloading, and mobile device position tracking, while focus modes, Quick Start, a fingerprint scanner, iris scanner, 3D facial recognition, barometer, infrared sensor, built-in projector, and Galileo satellite support are all not present.
The OnePlus Pad Lite uses DDR4 memory.
