Somewhere in the Philippines, a budget tablet from itel has slipped into the world under the name VistaTab 32, an 11-inch slate running Android 16 with a sharp 2.5K screen and a battery large enough to promise a full day of watching, meeting and playing. It is a modest machine in the long line of affordable devices meant to put a study desk or office in a student's or worker's hands without much cost. Its figures come from the maker's own laboratory, so the true measure of its endurance will only be known in ordinary days, in ordinary rooms, carried by ordinary people.
itel Unveils VistaTab 32: 11-Inch 2.5K Android Tablet With 8,200mAh Battery
Those numbers come from the company's laboratory tests
So what is this tablet, in plain terms?
An 11-inch Android 16 tablet from itel, listed in the Philippines. The screen is 2.5K, the battery is 8,200mAh, and the chip is MediaTek's Helio G100.
The battery numbers look impressive. Twenty-five hours of video.
That figure is itel's own lab result. It isn't independent testing, and the company itself says real use will vary.
What about the processor and memory?
The Helio G100 is an octa-core chip at up to 2.2GHz, with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. It's pitched at everyday tasks, and an office suite comes preinstalled.
Four gigabytes is the detail I'd watch. We don't have performance tests, so how it handles multitasking is unknown.
Anything missing from the listing?
No mobile connectivity, only Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.2. No dust or water rating is listed, and no weight is given.
And the keyboard and stylus?
They're advertised, but whether they're included depends on the market. Nothing confirms they come in the box here, and the price isn't stated either.
Der Puls
- A product listing has surfaced in the Philippines, and itel's 8,200mAh battery claim of up to 25 hours of movie playback is already drawing attention.
- The 11-inch 2560x1600 display and MediaTek Helio G100 with 4GB RAM promise capable everyday performance, but the specs are modest on paper.
- Buyers are left in suspense: no weight, no mobile connectivity, no water resistance, and keyboard case and stylus inclusion varies by market.
- Since every battery and performance figure comes from itel's own lab tests, the real verdict awaits independent reviews and retailer confirmation.

Its figures come from the maker's own laboratory, so the true measure of its endurance will only be known in ordinary days, in ordinary rooms, carried by ordinary people.
The itel VistaTab 32 has appeared on a product listing in the Philippines, and its specification sheet tells most of the story. It is an 11-inch Android tablet running Android 16, built around a 2.5K IPS display at 2,560 by 1,600 pixels and a large 8,200mAh battery. itel says the screen reaches 450 nits and covers 86 percent of the front surface.
Underneath, a MediaTek Helio G100 octa-core chip with a Mali-G57 GPU handles the work, supported by 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. An office suite comes preinstalled for document editing. The metal body is 6.8mm thick, though no weight is given, a notable gap for a tablet aimed at students and office workers.
The battery is the headline. itel claims up to 25 hours of movie playback, 19 hours of meetings and 18 hours of gaming, but these come from its own laboratory tests, so real results will depend on how the tablet is used.
The rest is modest: an 8MP rear camera, a 5MP front camera, dual speakers, a USB-C port, Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.2, and face unlock. There is no mobile connectivity and no dust or water resistance rating. itel also promotes a smart keyboard case and stylus, but whether they come in the box varies by market. Pricing and wider rollout were not announced, so buyers should check with local retailers before deciding.
The itel VistaTab 32 has turned up on a product listing in the Philippines, and the spec sheet is the story. It is an 11-inch Android tablet that ships with Android 16, built around a 2.5K screen and a large battery, and it supports a keyboard case and stylus.
The display is an IPS panel at 2,560 × 1,600 pixels in a 16:10 shape. By itel's own figures it reaches 450 nits of brightness, offers a 1,500:1 contrast ratio and supports 16.7 million colors. The screen covers 86% of the front surface.
Inside is MediaTek's Helio G100, an octa-core processor with a top clock speed of 2.2GHz, paired with a Mali-G57 GPU. The listed configuration has 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. An office suite comes preinstalled for document editing and other everyday work.
The battery is 8,200mAh. itel rates it for up to 25 hours of movie playback, 19 hours of meetings and 18 hours of gaming. Those numbers come from the company's laboratory tests, so real-world results will depend on how the tablet is used and under what conditions it is measured.
The body is a metal unibody 6.8mm (0.27 inches) thick. itel's product page does not give a weight, which is a notable omission for a tablet pitched at studying and office use.
The rest of the specifications are modest. There is an 8MP rear camera, a 5MP front camera, dual speakers and a USB-C port. Connectivity stops at Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.2, and the listed configuration has no mobile connection. Face recognition handles unlocking. No dust or water resistance rating appears in the listing.
itel also advertises a smart keyboard case and a stylus for studying and office work. Availability of both differs from market to market, so it is unclear whether they come in the box or are sold separately. Buyers in the Philippines, and anywhere else the tablet appears, will need to check with local retailers. Pricing and wider market rollout were not part of the announcement.
