Will the iPad be the second-fiddle tablet for Mac users now the Pad 3 is here?

If any Android tablet is poised to take on the iPad Pro, it’s the new OnePlus I Pad 3. It can mirror your MacBook, make sending files to iPhone and iPad easier than any other Android tablet, and it packs a huge iPad Pro-beating 13.2-inch display. Yet, despite its flagship power, slender body and booming speakers, it’s just a fraction of the price of a top-of-the-line iPad.
So where’s the catch? Out of the gate, the OnePlus Pad 3’s screen tech is the most notable compromise, with the IPS display being less contrast-rich than iPad Pro OLED panels. There’s also no floating keyboard case – arguably the iPad’s best feature – so anyone picking it up for work will need to rely on a flimsier kickstand tablet folio case.
