The latest Android tablet from Xiaomi is the Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro 12.4, which is a head turner. It boasts a sleek metal body and a 3K display measuring 12.4 inches. The tablet is a powerful one and has been designed to do pretty much anything. Plus, it is also competitively priced, which makes it an excellent purchase.
Design and Build
Xiaomi has used a metal alloy to build the body of the Pad 6S Pro 12.4. It is only available in a dark silver color that the company has named graphite grey. It has a tidy and smart look, thanks to the 7mm bezel and the metal jacket. The thin edges actually comprise of six external speakers, as two speaker grilles can be found on each edge.
The power button is on the left-hand edge of the Pad 6S Pro, while the volume button is on the corner of the top edge. There is also a magnetic strip on the top edge for the Focus Pen stylus. A Type-C USB port can be found on the right, but the bottom does not have any connections, grilles, or ports. The tiny front-facing camera sensor is barely visible.
The camera module on the rear is about 2mm up from the body, which means the Pad 6S Pro is unlikely to rest flat on a desktop. A Pro Cover has been developed with rubber coating to make the tablet easier to hold and grip and it has a clasp that keeps the stylus in place when it is charging.
Screen and Speakers
The 12.4-inch display of the Pad 6S Pro is LCD and while it does not come close to OLED, it is still able to offer good contrast. The 144Hz refresh rate and the high resolution means that video and game content looks well-detailed. The brightness is very impressive and the audio sounds downright fantastic through the stereo speakers. Dialog also sounds clear and the audio remains quite clear at all times.
Specs and Performance
The performance of the Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro is good. General everyday tasks, such as web browsing and jumping from menu to menu feels amazing. This is all thanks to the 144MHz display. You can choose between two versions of the tablet; one that comes with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, while the other comes with 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. No microSD card support is given for expansion.
Both the versions are quite powerful, as they boast the octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor. As far as connectivity is concerned, you get Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.3.
The Verdict
The Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro fares better than other tablets in terms of battery life. Therefore, anyone looking for a high-end tablet who wants to engage in some digital art and Netflix binges will find this tablet to be the perfect fit. It is smaller than its competitors, offers a better battery and is also less expensive.
