iQOO, a sub-brand of Vivo, is gearing up to unveil its inaugural tablet, the iQOO Pad, in China on May 23rd. As the launch date approaches, iQOO has taken to Weibo, the Chinese microblogging platform, to drop some hints about the key features of the soon-to-be-launched device.

Based on recent teasers, the iQOO Pad will boast a sturdy metal unibody, with a pair of sensors and an LED flash unit neatly housed within a circular camera module on its rear panel. The tablet will be powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 9000+ processor, which will be complemented by LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage technology. The device is also reported to have an impressive heat dissipation system, covering an area of 14442mm.

In terms of its display, the iQOO Pad is expected to have a balanced design, with even bezels surrounding its screen on all sides. The device will sport a 12.1-inch display with a resolution of 2.8K pixels and a swift refresh rate of 144Hz. The brightness of the display can peak up to 600 nits, and it also supports HDR10.

While the official details about the iQOO Pad are still scarce, the tablet's listing on JD.com suggests that it will be available in various RAM and storage combinations: 8GB + 128GB, 8GB + 256GB, 12GB + 256GB, and 12GB + 512GB.

The upcoming iQOO Pad is speculated to be a repackaged version of the Vivo Pad that was launched just a month ago, as the specifications seem to echo each other. The device will feature a 13MP main and 2MP macro camera at the back, along with an 8MP selfie camera at the front. The tablet will be powered by a robust 10,000mAh battery unit, which will support 44W fast charging.
