The POCO Pad 5G has just been released, and it looks like there’s only one key difference between this new model and the standard version. While both versions share many of the same impressive specs, the addition of 5G connectivity is the standout feature of the POCO Pad 5G.
Let’s dive into the specs. The POCO Pad 5G comes with a 12.1-inch “X Display” that supports a 120Hz AdaptiveSync refresh rate, offering smooth scrolling and a more responsive experience. The tablet also features Dolby Sound with quad speakers, promising a rich audio experience whether you’re watching movies or playing games.
Under the hood, both the 5G and standard versions are powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 2 chipset. This SoC is already 5G capable, but the standard version of the POCO Pad doesn’t utilize this feature, making the 5G variant the go-to choice for those who want the latest connectivity options.
The battery is another highlight, with a massive 10,000 mAh capacity that supports 33W fast charging. Despite its power, the tablet remains sleek, with a thickness of just 7.5mm and protection by Corning Gorilla Glass, making it durable yet lightweight.
Additionally, the POCO Pad 5G supports a range of accessories, including the POCO Smart Pen and POCO Keyboard, which makes it a versatile option for both productivity and entertainment. The tablet also boasts Xiaomi Interconnectivity, allowing seamless integration with other devices in the Xiaomi ecosystem.
Initially, the POCO Pad 5G will be available in India, with the 8GB RAM and 128GB storage model priced at INR 23,999, and the 8GB RAM and 256GB storage model priced at INR 25,999. With its competitive pricing and 5G capability, the POCO Pad 5G is set to be a strong contender in the tablet market.
