iQOO's supposedly inaugural Pad is also now tipped to launch as an Android tablet with the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 Plus (or 9000+) SoC. The platform might give the first-gen slate an edge over its potential rivals from OnePlus or even iQOO's own parent company Vivo. On that note, it may also stand to boast a (nearly) unique aspect-ratio and a display with a top refresh rate for its category.
Some consumers in the market for a new tablet and who are drawn to the OnePlus Pad for its distinctive features just might be advised to hold off to see if a new version really does come out courtesy of iQOO as rumored. Furthermore, this Pad could be the one to base a buying decision on thanks to a slight edge in terms of processing.
iQOO is now slated to have borrowed the up-to-date tablet design in question from its parent Vivo for this purpose, yet may improve on the freshly-launch Pad2 with the Dimensity 9000+ SoC, rather than the 9000 of that slightly older slate.
Accordingly, tablet fans might soon be able to choose a new iteration of the fast-emerging 144Hz/7:5 display type (along with the equally distinctive round rear camera hump), albeit probably with a different, possibly more speed-themed, paint-job to go with its slightly upgraded silicon. The "iQOO Pad" might also be able to look forward to a minimum of 44W charging and Android 13 out of the box.

I became a professional writer and editor shortly after graduation. My degrees are in biomedical sciences; however, they led to some experience in the biotech area, which convinced me of its potential to revolutionize our health, environment and lives in general. This developed into an all-consuming interest in more aspects of tech over time: I can never write enough on the latest electronics, gadgets and innovations. My other interests include imaging, astronomy, and streaming all the things. Oh, and coffee.
