OnePlus tablets are getting one of Android’s best, and one of its worst, productivity features

The latest OxygenOS 15 update brings Google’s Circle to Search and a new floating taskbar to the OnePlus Open and OnePlus Pad 2.
Circle to Search allows users to quickly search anything on their screen by tapping, highlighting, or drawing over it.
The floating taskbar, while aiming to balance productivity and screen real estate, lacks a quick toggle to switch styles and on tablets, it requires disabling gesture navigation for the fixed version.

OnePlus makes some of the best Android tablets with some really useful productivity features. The company’s Open Canvas, for example, sets the standard for mobile multitasking and is available across its tablets and foldables. While this feature first debuted on the OnePlus Open foldable, it later came to tablets through an over-the-air update. Now, a recent update brings two more major productivity features to its large-screen devices.

Google’s amazing Circle to Search feature is finally here for the OnePlus Open and Pad 2

With the latest OxygenOS 15 update for the OnePlus Open and OnePlus Pad 2, the company has brought Google’s Circle to Search to its previous-generation foldable and tablet. Circle to Search allows you to quickly search anything on your screen by simply tapping, highlighting, or drawing over it. The feature debuted on last year’s Galaxy S24 series and has since expanded to dozens of devices, including some OnePlus phones.
