vivo Pad Air announced with 144Hz LCD and Snapdragon 870
The latest Android tablet from vivo is here with the vivo Pad Air. The slate comes as a more affordable offering to the vivo Pad2 which made its debut in April. The Pad Air offers a smaller 11.5-inch screen alongside a Snapdragon 870 chipset and an 8,500 mAh battery with 44W charging.
Pad Air features an 11.5-inch IPS LCD with 1840 x 2800 px resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. The panel sports a 3:2 aspect ratio and a 5MP front-facing camera. The back features an 8MP primary camera housed in a circular housing. Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 870 chipset is joined by 8/12GB RAM and up to 512GB storage. The software front is covered by OriginOS 3 on top of Android 13 and the tablet also supports stylus input via the vivo Pencil2 (soled seperately) for drawing and taking notes.
vivo Pad Air comes in Brave Powder, Free Blue and Easy Silver colors. The baseline 8/128GB model is priced at CNY 1,799 ($247 converted) while the top-end 12/512GB version will cost CNY 2,599 ($357 converted).
