Android tablets could make a big comeback in 2022

Vivo could soon announce a new tablet intended for the high-end segment. Other manufacturers could follow, bringing up to date a format that has fallen into disuse.

The tablet format was a must in the first half of the 2010 decade. Since then, it has fallen into disuse, the fault of increasingly large smartphones which encroach on its use, a saturation of the market or even a lack of interest on the part. of the consumer. Some manufacturers, such as Samsung, Huawei or Apple, continue to offer it by modernizing the format, but overall, offering a tablet for sale is no longer a must. The year 2022 could change that.

Manufacturers could have the idea of ​​trying to take this market in hand. This would be the case with Vivo, according to the famous Digital Chat Station leaker. The Chinese brand, which is growing aggressively internationally, could soon present a high-end tablet with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 processor.

2022 could be the year of the tablet

Vivo could release it very quickly, in order to avoid a traffic jam due to the rapid explosion of the tablet market. Indeed, many manufacturers would like to have their product of this type in 2022. We think in particular of Oppo, whose first tactile slate was recently spotted in a leak. Here again, we are talking about a high-end product, with a 120 Hz screen and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 processor. Other manufacturers are also in the starting blocks.

Also according to Digital Chat Station, manufacturers could offer products for specific uses. Thus, we could have tablets dedicated to gaming, others dedicated to productivity or reading. The democratization of large OLED screens could also help give a new lease of life to this obsolete market.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE test: too many compromises to convince

We must not neglect the historical actors who have never abandoned the format. We think of Samsung on Android, which encroaches on PC uses with its Galaxy Tabs. Moreover, the Galaxy Tab S8 could be presented very soon and become one of the emblems of this rebirth. Either way, we could talk a lot about this format in the coming months.
