The Xiaomi Redmi Pad SE 8.7 256GB is Xiaomi's 2024 tablet featuring a 8.7 inches, 214.9 cm2 (~80.9% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Mediatek Helio G85 (12 nm) chipset. It comes with a 6650 mAh battery. At AED 599 in the UAE and ₹12,999 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Xiaomi Redmi Pad SE 8.7 delivers an 8.7-inch 90Hz IPS LCD display with 600 nits HBM brightness and 1B colors, offering smooth scrolling and vivid mid-range viewing. Paired with an octa-core chipset (2x2.0GHz Cortex-A75), it handles multitasking and media playback without lag. It lacks stylus support, limiting creative workflows. At 370g, it’s heavy for one-handed use but stable on laps. The 6650mAh battery lasts over two days with moderate use. The 8MP rear camera is purely for scanning documents. In UAE at AED 599, it’s worth it because no other tablet under AED 700 offers a 90Hz panel and 256GB storage. In India at ₹12999, it’s overpriced — rivals like the Realme Pad 2 Pro match the screen and battery at ₹1000 less. Buy here only if you prioritize screen smoothness over accessories or brand prestige.
