iQOO Pad 2 Pro
This smaller iQOO tablet is expected to have a display around 8″, which is smaller than the 8.8″ screen of the Legion Y700 Gen 4. It is rumored to be launched in the latter half of this year.
Currently, the market for compact Android tablets is not very large—the iPad mini supposedly sells nearly as many units as all the compact Android tablets put together. However, this situation might change soon, as various Chinese manufacturers are starting to focus on compact tablets, according to Weibo tipster Digital Chat Station.
Performance Focused Designs
The upcoming compact tablets, including iQOO’s model, are expected to be geared towards performance—especially for gaming—while maintaining a slim and light design, featuring screens between 8-9″. Sadly, not much information is available about the iQOO compact tablet yet. However, given its performance-oriented design, it is likely to include a recent top-tier chipset like the Snapdragon 8 Elite or Dimensity 9400.
The Legion Y700 Gen 4 boasts the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, along with a 12,000mm² heat sink for consistent performance. It comes equipped with a 7,600mAh battery supporting 68W fast charging and will be available in two configurations: either 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and 256GB or 512GB of storage.
Specs and Features
This compact Legion tablet is designed to support a 165Hz refresh rate, has a 360Hz touch sampling rate, and achieves 600 nits of average brightness. The display resolution is 3040 x 1904, which results in a pixel density of 408 PPI. To see the design, check out the image above.
