Oscal has introduced the Pad 18, a new Android tablet. At 256.75 x 168.3 millimetres and a thickness of 7.4 millimetres, the model is quite compact and is equipped with an 11-inch screen. The IPS panel offers a resolution of 1920 x 1200, which is advantageous for playing media content. Widevine L1 certification is available, allowing for high-quality plackback of material from streaming service providers such as Amazon Prime or Netflix.
A Unisoc Tiger T616 is used as the SoC and it can access a reasonable amount of RAM, namely 8 or 12 GB. The internal storage amounts to 256 GB: expansion is possible. However, users have to opt for either storage expansion or two SIM cards, as there are only two card slots available. LTE band 20 is also supported. WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac and Bluetooth 5.0 are included, and a 3.5 millimeter jack socket for headsets is also on board.
The main camera has a resolution of 13 MP, while the S5K4H7 sensor of the front camera has a resolution of 8 MP. The GNSS module supports GPS, Glonass, Galileo and Beidou, so the Oscal Pad 18 can certainly be used as a navigational tool. The 8800 mAh battery can be charged with 10 watts. The manufacturer uses DokeOS_P3, which is based on Android 13, as the operating system.
The Oscal Pad 18 will be available between December 11th and 15th at a price of US$150.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

Growing up in regional Australia, I first became acquainted with computers in my early teens after a broken leg from a football (soccer) match temporarily condemned me to a predominately indoor lifestyle. Soon afterwards I was building my own systems. Now I live in Germany, having moved here in 2014, where I study philosophy and anthropology. I am particularly fascinated by how computer technology has fundamentally and dramatically reshaped human culture, and how it continues to do so.
