Alongside the iQOO 15 and iQOO Watch GT 2, iQOO has finally unveiled its new mid-range tablet, the iQOO Pad 5e. iQOO says the iQOO Pad 5e is perfect for gamers, offering good performance at a fair price. It comes with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chip and a smooth 144 Hz display. So, without any delay, let’s dive into the specs, features, and expected price of the iQOO Pad 5e in Nepal in this article.
iQOO Pad 5e Overview
Design and Display
Design-wise, the iQOO Pad 5e closely resembles the vanilla Pad 5 and Pad 5 Pro, featuring a circular camera module at the back. It measures just 6.62 mm thick and weighs around 584 g. It also comes in similar color options, which Vivo calls "Isle of Man" (Green), "Gray Quartz," and "Silver Wing."
At the front, we are greeted by a large 12.1-inch IPS LCD panel with a sharp 2.8K resolution esports screen. It supports a 144 Hz refresh rate and HDR10 and reaches a peak brightness of up to 900 nits. This makes it an overall good package for a multimedia experience. It also supports DC dimming technology for a more comfortable viewing experience.
Performance
As said in the beginning, the iQOO Pad 5e packs the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor, built on a 4 nm process, and can be clocked at up to 3.3 GHz. For GPU, it is paired with the Adreno 735 GPU. This chipset is capable of offering smooth graphical performance for both games and everyday apps. To keep the device cool during intensive tasks, iQOO has packed a double-sided graphite heat dissipation system covering a 34,200 mm² surface area.
Memory-wise, this tablet comes with 8GB, 12GB, or 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 128GB, 256GB, or 512GB of storage. The 128GB variant uses UFS 3.1, while the 256GB and 512GB variants feature faster UFS 4.1 storage. Sadly, Vivo still ships this tablet with OriginOS HD 5, based on Android 15.
