Xiaomi Pad 8 Launch Teased

Xiaomi President Lu Weibing, via Weibo, announced the arrival of the Xiaomi Pad 8 lineup in China.

The new tablet series will feature an 11.2-inch display and a 'high-performance processor'.

The Xiaomi Pad 8 series is confirmed to offer a lightweight and portable build. They will ship with the HyperOS 3 interface based on Android 16. The poster reveals a familiar design for the new models with a detachable keyboard and a stylus.

Pre-reservations for the Xiaomi Pad 8 series have already started through Xiaomi Mall in China. Interested customers can pre-book the tablets with CNY 1.

The upcoming Xiaomi Pad 8 series is expected to offer upgrades over the current Xiaomi Pad 7 lineup. The standard Xiaomi Pad 8 is rumoured to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset paired with up to 16GB of RAM, marking a significant leap from the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 used in the Pad 7 Pro. The key difference between the Xiaomi Pad 8 and Pad 8 Pro is speculated to be charging speed, with the Pro model likely offering 67W fast charging and the standard model with 45W. Both are expected to pack a 10,000mAh battery.
