Vivo Pad tablet model VP2701 receives TUV Rheinland certification with 44W charging support, indicating Vivo's push into international tablet markets.

The company that is best known for smartphones is gearing up for an international expansion of their tablet portfolio. This is a significant step for a company that’s more known for their smartphone business than anything else. The latest step is the regulatory approvals for their new product that may offer Vivo computing hardware to more customers around the world.

New Vivo Pad tablet model passes safety tests for global markets

If you’re an alternative Android tablet consumer, keep an eye on this entry. As it passes through the regulatory certification phase, it may make its way to the retail market.

Specifications

  • Model Number: VP2701
  • Charging Speed: 44W
  • Certification Body: TÜV Rheinland

The new product in the question is model number VP2701. It’s currently named Vivo Pad in the regulatory documents. This particular product has got TÜV Rheinland approval.

The TÜV Rheinland is a major certification and testing lab. It means that the hardware has passed safety and technical tests. This is a standard step to take in order to sell your electronic in the regulated markets in Europe and other places.

Technical specifications from this approval show that the Vivo Pad product is capable of up to 44W wired charging. The VP2701 model number has been also spotted in the Eurasian Economic Union declaration. This means that Vivo is preparing for several geographic markets all at once. Besides this, they are also announcing another tablet model (Vivo Pad FE) that has a lower charging speed of 15W.

Although the product is now certified, its final name in the market may be different from Vivo Pad. Vivo had a very small footprint in the international tablet market so far. This may be a big step for their global expansion.

We’ve been keeping an eye on Vivo Pad. Read our previous Vivo Pad FE spotted in the UAE if you want to learn more about their tablet strategy.

The fact that both 44W Vivo Pad and 15W Vivo Pad FE are getting certification shows that Vivo is actively trying to expand globally in different tiers. The regulatory approvals mean that the hardware is approved for the market. The price and specific launch timing are unknown at the moment.
