OnePlus Pad 3
- + Great for creative work
- + Best-in-class display quality
THE VERDICT
Pad 3 is the stronger buy for most people because it combines the broader spec lead with a more defensible price. Yoga Tab Plus is not a bad pick, but it only makes more sense if its narrower strengths line up exactly with your workload.

THE BIG DIFFERENCES
