The Redmi Pad is incredibly affordable but it does not compromise on the specifications; it is much better equipped than more expensive Android tablets under Rs. 20,000.

The tablet comes with Widevine L1 certification for better performance with OTT apps.

This display is accompanied by a set of quad speakers with support for Dolby Atmos. Users will get 2 months of free YouTube Premium subscription with the Redmi Pad.

Underneath the display lies a MediaTek Helio G99 chip, which is a new entry-level 4G chipset powering some new smartphones. It runs on MIUI 13 based on Android 12 out of the box, and Redmi promises two Android OS updates and three years of security patches. You can expand the storage up to 1TB via a microSD card slot. Wireless connectivity is taken care of with Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.3.

You also get a 8MP rear camera and another 8MP front camera. The front camera comes with FocusFrame that keeps the subject in the center when they move around. Lastly, all of that is backed by a 8000mAh battery that comes with support for 18W wired charging.
