Positioned as the successor to the Xiaomi Pad 5, this new iteration arrives after a relatively short one-year gap. However, does the rapid release timeframe translate into a substantial improvement over its predecessor? Let’s delve into the details and explore whether the Xiaomi Pad 6 manages to stand out in the crowded tablet market.

The Xiaomi Pad 6 carries forward the familiar design language that we’ve come to associate with Xiaomi’s devices – a sleek metallic rear housing that exudes a premium feel while resisting fingerprints. The tablet’s form factor has been subtly refined, with slim bezels embracing the 11-inch WQHD+ display, sporting a resolution of 2,880 x 1,800 pixels. This results in an impressive pixel density of 309ppi. What’s more, the inclusion of Dolby Vision support adds a layer of vibrancy and depth to the visual experience, while the expanded refresh rate of 144Hz (up from its predecessor’s 120Hz) ensures smoother animations, particularly noticeable when gaming.
