OPPO has launched the Pad Mini in India, its first compact tablet in the market. It arrived on October 22 alongside the Find X10 series and the Enco X4 earbuds. The Pad Mini costs ₹94,999 for a single 8GB RAM + 256GB storage variant in Lavender. Sales start on October 29 through Flipkart and the OPPO online store.
The tablet first launched in China in April 2026. It is OPPO’s pitch for buyers who want a small, high-performance Android tablet, and it sits close to the iPad mini in size and ambition.

The ₹94,999 price is well above what many had expected. Pre-launch leaks pointed to ₹79,999 for the base model. That figure would already have put the Pad Mini above the OnePlus Pad 4 which starts at ₹62,999, and the iPad mini, which starts at ₹69,900.
To lower the price, OPPO is offering launch deals on select banks: up to 15% instant cashback, up to 24 months of no-cost EMI, or up to 30 months of zero down payment. From October 22 to November 11, buyers also get the OPPO Pencil 3 Pro stylus and the Pad Mini Smart Case free with the tablet.
