Unless the brand gives an affirmation, take this information as a pinch of salt. Xiaomi Pad 6 Specifications The Xiaomi Pad 6 has been rumoured earlier with some of its key specifications. It is expected to feature a 120Hz display with HDR10+ support and Dolby Vision. Rumours also suggest the Xiaomi Pad 6 will pack a 10,000mAh battery with support for 67W fast charging. More leaked specifications include quad speakers and triple rear cameras on the Xiaomi Pad 6. Xiaomi is also expected to launch two models as part of its tablet series. The model with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen1 chipset is reportedly the ‘Pro’ variant. There’s also a regular variant in the works and this one will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chipset. Leaked renders of the Xiaomi Pad 6 were also recently revealed and it looks like the tablet will adopt a camera module similar to the flagship smartphone, the Xiaomi 12 Pro. We can also except flat edges on the tablet according to the images. Xiaomi has scheduled a global event for April 18th where it will debut the 13 Ultra smartphone. The same is said to launch in China as well which is where we except the Xiaomi Pad 6 to be unveiled as well. With the launch date nearing we should get more confirmation soon.

Ans) According to all the recent leaks and rumors, the Xiaomi Pad 6 series tablets will come with several upgrades over the previous-gen Pad 5 lineup. We might see Xiaomi releasing the vanilla Xiaomi Pad 6 and the Pad 6 Pro in the global markets. Speaking of the expected spec-sheet, the vanilla Xiaomi Pad 6 tablet could feature the Snapdragon 870 chipset. For reference, the vanilla Xiaomi Pad 5 was launched with the Snapdragon 860 SoC. On the other hand, the Xiaomi Pad 6 Pro could come either with the Dimensity 9000+ chipset or the Snapdragon 8+ gen 1 chipset. Both Xiaomi Pad 6 and the Pad 6 Pro could come with a 12.1-inch display with 2880 x 1800 pixels screen resolution and 120Hz or 144Hz refresh rate. The exact camera hardware that the Xiaomi Pad 6 series tablets will offer remains unknown. However, the rumor mill indicates a 10,000 mAh battery unit combined with fast charging support. 2) Has Xiaomi Pad 6 Official Launch Confirmed For Mid-April? Ans) Lu Weibing, Xiaomi’s president has put all the rumors to rest and confirmed the upcoming launch of the Xiaomi Pad 6 Android tablet this month. Weibing revealed this information via Chinese microblogging website Weibo. While the exact launch date for the Xiaomi Pad 6 still remains a mystery, online leaks suggests its arrival on the same day as the Xiaomi 13 Ultra. Possible date for the latter’s launch tipped is April 18, 2023. Notably, the suggested mid-April timeline for the Xiaomi 13 Ultra smartphone and the Xiaomi Pad 6 tablet is not suggested by the rumor mill and not Xiaomi. Unless the brand gives an affirmation, take this information as a pinch of salt. 3) When will the Xiaomi Pad 6 be released? Ans) The Pad 5 first announced in China in August 2021, going on sale in the rest of the world later in early 2022. That means it’s been more than a year since the Pad 5, and so in some ways the Pad 6 already feels overdue. The next plausible opportunity for a launch is the MWC 2023 tradeshow at the end of February, where Xiaomi has already confirmed it will have a booth – but will it launch products too? As with most Xiaomi products, we wouldn’t expect to see it available in the US, and if the previous generation is any guide then the Pro model may stay China-only, with only the regular Pad 6 making it overseas. 4) How much will the Xiaomi Pad 6 cost? Ans) There’s no confirmation on an official price for the Pad 6 yet, so we need to look at how much the previous generation cost to give us some idea. Here’s the prices for the Xiaomi Pad 5: * Xiaomi Pad 5 6GB/128GB – £369/€349/₹26,999 * Xiaomi Pad 5 6GB/256GB – €399/₹28,999 Prices are already quite competitive against the 10.2in iPad against which it directly competes. Because of that, we’d expect to see them stay pretty much the same when the Xiaomi Pad 6 arrives. 5) What specs and features will we see in the Xiaomi Pad 6? Ans) We’re only beginning to see the first leaks about the Pad 6 series, which is expected to include the Xiaomi Pad 6 and Pad 6 Pro. The best information from XiaomiUi was the code hinting at both of these tablets, with the code names ‘pipa’ and ‘liuqin’ respectively. According to the code dive, the regular Xiaomi Pad 6 will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870, the natural step up from the 860 in its predecessor. The Pad 6 Pro will be more powerful, using the flagship Snapdragon 8+ Gen1 chip. The code details more specs here too, including a 1880×2880 120Hz AMOLED display, quad stereo speakers, and a dual rear camera setup that will apparently consist of a main camera and a depth sensor. The two tablets will use the Snapdragon 870 and 8+ Gen 1 respectively, adding that the Pro will go as high as 12GB of RAM and 512GB storage. He disagrees slightly on the screens though, predicting that both tablets will use similar 11in displays with a resolution of 1800×2880 – similar to that above, but not exactly the same – adding that while the Pad 6 will use a 120Hz refresh rate, the Pro will be faster at 144Hz. Interestingly he also adds that both tablets will feature fingerprint scanners – which weren’t featured on last year’s models – and will have the same 67W wired charging. In the Xiaomi Pad 5 review, one of the few hardware improvements we thought were necessary came in the area of connectivity. First up, there is no LTE version available, which can be a problem if you find yourself out of Wi-Fi range. So, we’d hope for at least a 4G model on the Pad 6 if 5G capabilities are still too expensive to hit those low price points. Wi-Fi 6 would also be nice, although it’s not really that pressing as most people still don’t have compatible routers at home. While Xiaomi offers two storage variants on the Pad 5 – 128GB and 256GB – both come with 6GB of RAM. Admittedly, this isn’t too bad, but we’d be much happier to see 8GB in the Pad 6, especially if the expected Android 12L system that’s optimised for tablets arrives this year.
