iQOO has officially unveiled the iQOO Pad6 Pro, a new premium Android tablet powered by Qualcomm’s latest flagship chipset and equipped with a high-resolution 4K-class display.
The device was announced alongside the new iQOO 15T smartphone and appears to be a rebranded version of the vivo Pad6 Pro that debuted earlier this year.
The iQOO Pad6 Pro targets the high-end Android tablet market with flagship performance, immersive multimedia features, and productivity-focused hardware.

13.2-Inch 4K Display With 144Hz Refresh Rate
One of the standout features of the iQOO Pad6 Pro is its large 13.2-inch LCD display.
The panel offers:
- 3840 x 2512 resolution
- 144Hz refresh rate
- 540Hz touch sampling rate
The ultra-high-resolution display places the tablet among the sharpest Android tablets currently available.
The 144Hz refresh rate should deliver smoother scrolling, fluid animations, and enhanced gaming responsiveness, while the high touch sampling rate improves input accuracy and responsiveness.
The large display size also positions the device strongly for:
- Media consumption
- Gaming
- Productivity
- Multitasking
- Creative work
Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Powers the Tablet
Under the hood, the iQOO Pad6 Pro is powered by the flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset.
The processor is expected to deliver major improvements across:
- Gaming performance
- AI processing
- Thermal efficiency
- Battery optimization
- Multitasking
- Graphics rendering
The inclusion of Qualcomm’s latest premium processor positions the tablet directly against other high-end Android and productivity tablets.
Multiple RAM and Storage Configurations
iQOO is offering the Pad6 Pro in several memory and storage variants:
| RAM | Storage | Price |
|---|---|---|
| 8GB | 256GB | CNY 4,499 ($660) |
| 12GB | 256GB | CNY 4,999 ($733) |
| 12GB | 512GB | CNY 5,799 ($850) |
| 16GB | 512GB | CNY 6,699 ($982) |
The high-capacity RAM options suggest the tablet is designed to handle demanding workloads, multitasking, and gaming.

Large 13,000mAh Battery Included
Battery life is another major focus of the iQOO Pad6 Pro.
The device packs a massive 13,000mAh battery with support for 66W wired charging.
The large battery should comfortably support:
- Long gaming sessions
- Video streaming
- Productivity workloads
- Multitasking
- Extended standby time
Meanwhile, the 66W charging support should significantly reduce charging times despite the battery’s large capacity.
Eight-Speaker Audio System
The tablet also includes an eight-speaker audio setup designed to enhance entertainment and gaming experiences.
High-end Android tablets increasingly emphasize multimedia capabilities as manufacturers compete more directly against premium tablets like the Apple iPad Pro.
The multi-speaker configuration should improve:
- Stereo separation
- Bass response
- Volume levels
- Immersive audio performance
Camera Hardware Remains Simple
The camera setup remains relatively modest compared to the rest of the hardware.
The tablet includes:
- 13MP rear camera
- 8MP front-facing camera
The front camera will likely be more important for:
- Video conferencing
- Online meetings
- Remote learning
- Streaming
while the rear camera primarily handles document scanning and casual photography.
Slim Design Despite Massive Battery
Despite the large display and battery, the iQOO Pad6 Pro maintains a relatively slim profile.
The tablet measures:
- 297.03 x 199.82 x 6.18 mm
and weighs approximately:
- 663 grams
The slim chassis should help improve portability and comfort during prolonged use.
Rebranded vivo Pad6 Pro Strategy Continues
The launch also reflects the increasingly close hardware relationship between iQOO and vivo.
The iQOO Pad6 Pro shares nearly identical specifications with the vivo Pad6 Pro announced earlier this year.
This type of rebranding strategy allows BBK-owned brands to expand product availability across different audiences and regional markets while reducing development costs.
Android Tablet Competition Intensifies
The premium Android tablet market has become increasingly competitive.
Manufacturers including:
- Samsung
- Xiaomi
- Lenovo
- Honor
have all aggressively expanded their high-end tablet offerings.
The iQOO Pad6 Pro enters this market with specifications clearly designed to compete on performance and multimedia capabilities.

Global Availability Still Unclear
At the moment, iQOO has only announced pricing and availability for China.
The company has not confirmed whether the iQOO Pad6 Pro will launch internationally.
However, given iQOO’s growing global expansion efforts, broader availability remains possible later this year.
Final Thoughts
The iQOO Pad6 Pro is shaping up to be one of the most powerful Android tablets released in 2026 so far.
With its 4K-class 144Hz display, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, eight-speaker setup, and massive 13,000mAh battery, the device targets users seeking flagship-level entertainment and productivity performance.
Although it closely mirrors the vivo Pad6 Pro, the iQOO branding and competitive pricing could help the tablet stand out in the increasingly crowded premium Android tablet market.
