iQOO isn’t just launching the iQOO 16 on September 29. The company has confirmed that the iQOO Pad Ultra tablet will debut at the same event. They’re calling it a new kind of e-sports tablet, something that packs serious performance into a really thin and light body for a better mobile gaming experience.

We first got a proper look at the Pad Ultra during an earlier iQOO event. One of the standout features is the built-in cooling fan. It’s a 30 × 30 × 3.5 mm unit with a 1,661 mm² heat-dissipation area, spinning up to 14,500 rpm and pushing as much as 0.94 CFM of airflow.

The idea is to keep performance steady even during long, demanding sessions. iQOO is also preparing two dedicated accessories: a stretchable game controller and a back grip to make holding it more comfortable.

From the teasers and earlier reports, it looks like an 8.8″ OLED screen with a centered punch-hole camera and thin bezels all around. The tablet itself is only 5.74 mm thick and weighs about 298 g. There’s a square Deco module on the back that includes an air vent. Under the hood, it’s expected to run on a 2 nm Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 chip, paired with a roughly 9,000 mAh battery. Color choices so far are Ender Black and Star Silver.

Overall, this points to a compact tablet that prioritizes portability while still packing high-end hardware and active cooling. The fan and gaming accessories set it apart from regular tablets and make it clearer that iQOO is targeting people who want sustained performance for longer play sessions. We’ll get the full picture at the September 29 event. For now, the strong e-sports focus make the Pad Ultra an interesting addition to iQOO’s lineup.
