Our Verdict

Ipad Air 11 (2025) vs Pad 3 (Global)

OnePlus Pad 3 wins on display with its 13.2-inch IPS LCD (2.2 inches larger than the iPad Air’s 11-inch), 144Hz refresh rate versus 60Hz, and 315 ppi density versus 264 ppi. Artists who use a stylus should choose the iPad Air 11, as it supports Apple Pencil Pro with pressure sensitivity and low latency, while the OnePlus Pad 3 lacks any official stylus support. Students and media consumers needing a large screen for multitasking or streaming should pick the OnePlus Pad 3 for its bigger display, Dolby Vision, and 900-nit brightness, plus it costs AED 601 less in UAE and ₹25,000 less in India. In UAE at AED 2500 vs AED 1899, the OnePlus Pad 3 is better because its screen is 2.2 inches larger with higher refresh rate and brightness; in India at ₹67999 vs ₹42999, the OnePlus Pad 3 wins on value because it offers a superior screen and 50% lower price without cellular, making it the smarter buy for home use.
