Announcement. Vivo iQOO Pad - just add a plus

Vivo announced yesterday in China a tablet called Vivo iQOO Pad.

Vivo iQOO Pad

Nothing new, unfortunately. Before us is an almost exact copy of the Vivo Pad2 tablet sold in the same place in China. The difference is only in the chipset, and even that is purely symbolic. Replaced
MediaTek Dimension 9000
to his older relative
Dimension 9000+. Well, yes... The core frequencies are five percent higher... The rest of the chipsets are identical. Both are high-end, both are, without a doubt, flagships. We are waiting in AnTuTu in the region of a million points.

Vivo Pad2

Let's briefly review the rest of the features.

Memory. As many as four configurations. From relatively modest 8+128 GB to more than solid 12+512 GB. There is no support for memory cards.

The screen has a diagonal of 12.1″ (444 cm²). Those.like a small laptop. (Of course, you can connect a keyboard to the tablet). The resolution is decent, 2800×1968 (283 ppi). The refresh rate is top-end, up to 144 Hz.

The battery is excellent, as much as 10,000 mAh. Medium-speed charging - 44 watts.

The set of cameras is strange and not at all flagship. 8 MP front, 13+2 MP rear. A small camera is, suddenly, a macromodule. Why is it needed in a tablet, especially of such dimensions, is a mystery to me.

There is an NFC module, but there is no support for mobile Internet. So the Internet - only through Wi-Fi (sixth Wi-Fi).

And about money.The Vivo iQOO Pad will cost ¥2599 (₽29500, $368), ¥2899 (₽32900, $410), ¥3199 (₽36300, $453) and ¥3499 (₽39700, $495) for 8+128 varieties at the start of sales in China , 8+256, 12+256 and 12+512 GB respectively. ¥100 (₽1140, $14.2) more expensive than Vivo Pad2 with the same amount of storage.
