Xiaomi has always been at the forefront of innovation, and their latest tablet is no exception. Xiaomi has been one of the most successful companies in China. Starting out as a smartphone manufacturer, they have diversified into other technology sectors such as wearables and IoT devices. Now for their latest product, Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 comes with some fascinating features to attract more users. Read on for our Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 review! Key Features of Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 Design The Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 is a tablet that looks good enough to be mistaken for an iPad Pro 11", which means it will probably appeal to some people who are looking at buying into the Apple ecosystem. It is very light and slim, considering that it has USB Type-C support. It also feels like good quality plastic in hand (and not like most other Chinese tablets). Read Best Gaming Phones Released in 2021 The Pad 5 has a 6.9mm thickness with 254.7 x 166.3mm dimension and weighs 511g. However, it is not the lightest tablet in the market; it does not add more bulk to your bag when you are carrying them around. You will see a power button on the top edge while the volume button is on the right edge of the tablet. Further, above the screen, it has a front camera. But you might not want to use the slate landscape because when you are on a video call, it might look like you are looking far from the camera, while some tablets have the camera that faces in front on the long edge. This is better for video calling. The Pad 5 comes with a USB Type C port, but there is no availability of the 3.5mm headphone jack. So, if you already have wired headphones, you better have an adapter. Read Best Camera Phones Released in 2021 Although the tablet's back is made of plastic, it is robust. You will find a sling camera bump on the back of the tab, which may seem similar to the Xiaomi Mi 11 and Mi 11 Lite. The Xiaomi Pad 5 offers three colors green, gray, and white. Display The Xiaomi Pad 5 has a fairly large display that measures just 11 inches. It is great to enjoy media on such a nice screen, and the resolution of 1600 x 2560 (WQHD+) will definitely give you an amazing experience! One more feature we should mention here is touch-screen functionality which works really well and offers a 120Hz refresh rate. This means it's perfect for games too! Further, it also comes with a billion colors display capability, which gives a good contrast with bold colors.

Like Xiaomi's phones, Pad 5 has many different modes for changing the screen. You can change the color of it, how much blue light is on the screen, and make it brighter or darker. These different modes are mostly to make the screen look better, but most of the modes are useful for people with sight problems. Performance and camera The Xiaomi Pad 5 has a Snapdragon 860 chipset in it. However, it is not much powerful as the M1 in the iPad Pro (2021) or like the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7's Snapdragon 865 Plus. But the 860 offers a lot of processing power, which beats many other competitors.

Nevertheless, this is not the top possible score, but definitely, it is a high score while other best tables and phones reach 4,000. The Mi Pad 5 has 6 GB RAM that can join with 128GB or 256GB storage. But not all the market will get to see both variations. But the 256 version will surely boost your productivity as you can store anything you want, such as games, songs, movies, apps, and more. Unlike other tabs, Xiaomi doesn't come with an LTE feature. Hence, you can only use the internet via Wi-Fi or hotspot. Read Apple iPad 9th Generation 2021 Review: Is it a value-for-money device? There might have some lag on the tablet when you switch between apps or menus quickly. Holding the tablet in the landscape may feel like a cloud passing through a forest of trees. Further, you might have to wait for things to load because of this. However, this is not a huge problem as the 120Hz refresh rate will give you the ultimate smoothness. The Mi Pad 5 comes with a quad-speaker which is good enough for music streaming as well as enjoying movies. But adding a portable speaker will give you more entertainment. Although you may require a high-resolution camera to work on tablets, Mi 5 comes with an 8 PM front-facing and 13MP rear-facing camera. So, you can even take a bright and bold picture with Mi Pad 5. Read Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Review: Does it offer a good deal? Battery and charging  The Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 has an 8,720mAh battery which is an average powered battery for tablets of this size. With this amount of juice, you can playback the music for 5 days, and video playback can be done for 16 hours. However, if you want to use it for gaming, the battery can last for 10 hours. The Mi 5's charging is also impressive as it gives 33W fast charging, which is above average for a tablet. With this charging speed, it may take one and half hours to charge the 8,720mAh battery fully. However, the cable that comes with the phone supports 22.5W charging. So, you might need a different lead to get the fast-charging capability. Price of Xiaomi Pad 5 in Bangladesh Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 is available in two variants. The basic variant featuring 6GB+128GB cost Tk. 30,999, while the upper variant 6GB+256GB is priced at Tk. 33,999.
