It has been three years since we have heard from the Xiaomi line of tablets, the Xiaomi Mi Pads which were born in 2014. It was in 2018 when we saw the Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus hit the market and now he has finally had a good-deserved revival. With the manufacturer elevated to number one in the world market, Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 and Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 Pro are coming
After these three blank years, Xiaomi returns to the tablet market with two new models to compete with the iPad and other tablets, adding, among other things, a case with an integrated keyboard to transform your tablet into a portable work device in more than 120 Hz refresh and other great features both for work and for playing games or consuming multimedia.
This is how Xiaomi makes money – they attract you and they catch you

A Snapdragon 870 in front of the Mi Pad 5 Pro and 120Hz for both
Tablets are taking the market with each 11-inch LCD screen with a 2K resolution of 2,560 x 1,600 pixels and up to 500 nits of peak brightness. The panel offers 275 pixels per inch of density and refreshes to nothing more and nothing less than 120 Hz. But on top of all that, it offers 1500: 1 contrast and compatibility with HDR10 and Dolby Vision content.
The tablets, with 6.86 millimeters thick and 515 grams in weight, arrive with a battery of 8,600 mAh which charges at 67 W in the Mi Pad 5 Pro and 8,720 mAh at 33 W in the normal Mi Pad 5. For the Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 Pro, Xiaomi has chosen a Snapdragon 870 as the main processor while the normal Mi Pad 5 opts for the Snapdragon 860. In addition, the tablets have four speakers located in the corners of the same, providing sound Dolby Atmos.
We also have on board a protective case with integrated keyboard, so that we can turn the Mi Pad 5 or Mi Pad 5 Pro into a kind of laptop with Android wherever we need it. In photography, the two tablets offer 13 megapixels on the front (with 5 megapixels for the secondary camera on the Mi Pad 5 Pro) and 50 + 5 megapixels for the Pro model on the back.
In addition to all this, the new Mi Pad 5 and Mi Pad 5 Pro take the opportunity to demonstrate their versatility by presenting a new proprietary stylus of the brand for which too many details were not provided. We assume that, like the keyboard case, it will arrive at least included in the configuration of the Pro model. We’ll see what happens eventually.
