    Coming towards the operating system (OS), the pad is likely to use vivo’s Ocean OS, with the latest android underneath. Keeping in view the leaked renders, the pad is likely to have an 11-inch O-LED display with Dolby Vision for crisp and vibrant visuals, linked to Dolby Atmos for an excellent audio surround.

    As per many credible reports, the Pad will most probably launch within a month. Hopefully, we may get to know about all of its key features in the coming days or at vivo’s upcoming launch event.
