vivo unveiled the S30 and S30 Pro mini in May, and if you know anything about Chinese smartphone makers, you know that they hate the number 4, due to prevailing tetraphobia in China. So it won't surprise you to find out that there will be no S40 series, but that vivo is already working on the S50 family. A few details about these have been outed today.
Going into actual benchmarks, Geekbench 6.4.0, shows just under 2,500 for single-core and just over 8,700 for multi-core. For comparison, the outgoing Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra with its Dimensity 9300+ gets around 2,200 on the single and 7,500 on the multi-core test. However, the result is below the Galaxy S25 Ultra score (Snapdragon 8 Elite) with 3,000 single and 9,800 multi-core tests.
The Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra had a dual front-facing camera - as did the Tab S9 Ultra and Tab S10 Ultra. That's cool and all, but the wide notch they caused was not ideal. The upcoming Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra will go halfway towards fixing the issue - it will only have a single camera on the front. Due to thin bezels, that camera will still live on a notch, but it will be less obtrusive as you can see in the images below.
The vivo Pad5 Pro is a powerful 13" tablet featuring the Dimensity 9400 chipset, boasting impressive display specs and extensive battery life for a diverse range of activities.
