Vivo recently announced that the X60 Pro+ will be launched in China on January 21. There are also reports that Vivo is planning to launch its first tablet under both the iQOO and Vivo brand.

A Weibo handle that dishes out iQOO news has now hinted that the Vivo tablet will be launched soon. It is worth noting that the post is accompanied by a pre-launch teaser poster for the X60 Pro+. This is viewed as an indication that the tablet may be launched on January 21.

Before now, two products known as Vivo Pad and iQOO Pad were registered alongside the iQOO Book, NEX Book, NEX Pad, and others, as shown by trademark documents released in June last year.

If the tablet doesn’t end up getting launched this January, Vivo’s first tablet PC is expected to be officially unveiled in the first half of this year, but no specific information has been revealed yet.

It is worth mentioning that according to the data released by IDC, due to the surge in demand for tablet computers in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Chinese tablet computer market has seen the largest increase since 2013.

This year the tablet market will usher in changes. According to IDC’s forecast, with the growth of online education and leisure and entertainment usage scenarios, it is expected that more hardware terminal manufacturers, internet companies, and online education brands will flood the tablet market in 2021, which may include one of the Internet giants Bytedance, the addition of new brands will also stimulate more active development of the entire tablet computer market.

In addition, with the gradual popularity of 5G mobile phones, tablet products will gradually use 5G instead of 4G networks. It is expected that by 2021, the market share of 5G tablet computers will grow to 8.1%. Cloud computers and games are also currently more common usage scenarios.
