vivo may be preparing a new tablet for markets outside China, but the first evidence leaves most of the important hardware questions unanswered. A filing with the UAE’s TDRA identifies the device as the vivo Pad FE, model VP2601, while an earlier EEC registration used the same model number. Together, the listings suggest broader launch preparation rather than a confirmed release plan.
For portable-computing buyers, the most concrete details so far concern connectivity and power rather than display size or performance. The certified unit is a Wi-Fi-only model, so there is no evidence yet of a cellular Pad FE variant.
- Model VP2601 is listed as a Wi-Fi-only tablet without cellular connectivity.
- The TDRA certification was issued on October 13.
- A TÜV Rheinland document indicates 5V/3A power input, corresponding to 15W charging support.
Pad SE connection is possible, not established
The 15W figure has prompted speculation that the Pad FE could be related to the vivo Pad SE, which launched in April 2025. That remains only a possibility: matching charging power alone does not show that the two tablets share a display, processor, battery, or other core hardware.
The Pad SE provides a rough reference for the type of large-screen entertainment and study tablet vivo could be adapting for other markets, but these are Pad SE specifications—not confirmed Pad FE details.
- A 12.3-inch LCD with a 2464 × 1600 resolution and 90Hz refresh rate.
- An 8,500mAh battery with 15W charging.
- A metal body measuring 6.8mm thick and weighing about 559 grams in the standard version.
Until vivo announces the Pad FE, its screen, chipset, battery capacity, accessory support, and exact regional rollout remain unknown. U.S. availability and pricing have not been confirmed. For now, VP2601 looks like an early-stage candidate for buyers who want a straightforward Wi-Fi tablet, rather than a fully defined rival to vivo’s existing large-screen models.
