Recently, Xiaomi announced that it will update its tablet line and package it in an unprecedented flagship configuration.
One of the famous Weibo bloggers has revealed that the alleged Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 has been connected to the Internet. The internal model is “K81C”. He also said that this tablet comes with super fast charging, extra large screen with high refresh rate, super battery and sm8250 processor. The codename “sm8250” represents Qualcomm’s latest flagship chip, the Snapdragon 870.
Two models – one with SND870, the other with Dimensity 1200
Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 will offer two different configuration models. They will come with Snapdragon 870 and Dimensity 1200 processors. Among them, the Dimensity 1200 version will have a smaller screen. The overall configuration will be slightly lower.
So, as we understand, the new model connected to the Internet is the higher version - Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 Pro. On the front, our main character should have an 11-inch screen with a 2K resolution. It supports up to 144Hz high refresh rate and up to 480Hz sampling rate. If so, it will bring a more delicate and smooth display effect on large screen devices.
At the same time, the Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 Pro will also support a stylus function similar to the iPad Pro. The overall positioning belongs to the high-end market. Thus, this tablet is going to give tough competition to the top models. Let's say it will fight against the iPad and the Huawei Mate Pad Pro.
Special MIUI for Xiaomi Mi Pad 5
In addition, Xiaomi's internal executives also revealed that the MIUI system for the Pad will be developed specifically for tablet products. Similar to a smartphone with a foldable MIX FOLD screen, it will support laptop mode and provide a familiar computer interface, including the classic Start menu and control panel. It can also open multiple windows at the same time, which improves user interaction and gets rid of the title of "smartphone with a big screen".
