Tablet · Xiaomi · 2023
The Xiaomi Redmi Pad 256GB is Xiaomi's 2023 tablet featuring a 10.61 inches, 320.4 cm2 (~80.9% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Mediatek Helio G99 (6 nm) chipset. It comes with a 8000 mAh battery. At AED 799 in the UAE and ₹16,999 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Xiaomi Redmi Pad 256GB excels with its 10.61-inch 90Hz IPS LCD display offering 1B colors and 400 nits brightness, delivering smooth scrolling and vivid media playback unmatched in its price bracket. Powered by an octa-core chipset with two high-performance Cortex-A76 cores, it handles multitasking and streaming without lag. No stylus support limits creative workflows, and the 465g weight feels substantial during prolonged use. The 8000mAh battery delivers all-day endurance, but the lack of cellular connectivity restricts mobility. In UAE at AED 799, it’s worth it because the screen and storage outclass rivals like the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite. In India at ₹16999, it’s overpriced compared to the Realme Pad 2 and Lenovo Tab M10, which offer similar displays at lower costs. The absence of cellular and stylus support makes it strictly a home or office media device.
