On sale for a good price and cheaper than launch last month is this more budget friendly Android tablet from Xiaomi's sub-brand Redmi. If you're looking for general use, playing media like Netflix in HD and a bit of gaming, then this is a good option. Plus it has more premium quality control over some cheaper brands.

Featuring Android 12 (MIUI 13 for Tablets), Widevine L1 DRM for Netflix HD, 10.61" 2000x1200 display with 90Hz refresh rate & 400nits brightness, 4GB RAM, 128GB storage (supports MicroSD), MediaTek Helio G99 CPU, 8000mAh battery with 18W PD charging, 4 speakers with Dolby Atmos, 8MP Front & Rear Cameras, WiFi AC, Bluetooth 5.3 and USB-C.

The downsides of this tablet is that there's no GPS and the MediaTek Helio G99 is a weaker CPU than some Qualcomm counterparts. The Helio G99 however is more power efficient so it offers good battery life paired with the 8000mAh battery and can still handle games. In terms of reviews this one covers it well

    @clear this or the Lenovo Xiaoxin Pad 2022 you posted on 24/11, is widevine main plus of this one over the Xiaoxin?

    • Clear on 27/11/2022 - 20:46

      Yeah Widevine is certainly a plus. Now that the Xiaoxin Pad 2022 has been revealed to have no Widevine. What else are you planning on using it for?

      • Kanu on 27/11/2022 - 20:54

        will be used by kids to play games predominantly and surf net, no real HD content viewing.

        • Clear on 27/11/2022 - 20:56

          This would be sufficient then.

          • crackman on 27/11/2022 - 21:56

            @Clear: Sounds likes the xiaoxin would be sufficient too?

            • Clear on 27/11/2022 - 22:57

              @crackman: If you don't care about updates or widevine the Xiaoxin 2022 is fine.

      • aussieprepper on 27/11/2022 - 20:56

        I bought a Xiaoxin pad P12 the boot loader is unlocked so no widevine L3 and also no global rom yet which i didn't know when i bought it, Its using software from the K10 pro. You can trick android into thinking the boot loader is locked but i have not tried it yet. Or you can lock the boot loader but it could brick the device i guess.
        Wait for the global rom.
        The G99 is faster than the SD680.

    I thought 6GB RAM is the new norm these days?

  • RedHab on 27/11/2022 - 21:37

    Good description, thank you.

  • paloverde88 on 27/11/2022 - 21:42

    No 5 gee

  • Poor Ass on 27/11/2022 - 21:44

    Are these better than the Lenovo M10 HD? Because Lenovo just know how to freeze

    • Clear on 27/11/2022 - 21:47

      Which gen do you know?

      • Poor Ass on 27/11/2022 - 21:47

        2nd

        • Clear on 27/11/2022 - 21:50
          +2

          Same RAM but a much more snappy CPU. Xiaomi tend to have more optimised software than Lenovo so it should outperform it.

          • Poor Ass on 27/11/2022 - 22:29

            @Clear: I've never had a decent tablet unless it was a Samsung S or A8… Everything just lags

    • Griffindinho on 28/11/2022 - 02:09

      2nd gen Lenovo M10 sucks. 3rd gen is better which has a better chipset (Helio G80) and 2k Res. Andriod 12 with 3 years of updates.

      • Poor Ass on 28/11/2022 - 12:02

        is it also slow?

        • Griffindinho on 28/11/2022 - 12:11

          Nah it’s good. Can play FIFA mobile on it lol.

    Can you download more RAM?

    • Clear on 27/11/2022 - 21:49
      +2

      Funny you should say that. Android 12 does have expandable RAM where you can use a portion of the storage as virtual RAM. I'm not sure if MIUI in this tablet has it.

    • paul11 on 27/11/2022 - 21:50

      Yes definitely, but it depends on your download speed. The higher your download speed, the more RAM you can download.

  • montorola on 27/11/2022 - 22:28

    Is this a good upgrade from my 2012 Nexus 7?

    • quackie on 27/11/2022 - 23:25

      Is yours still going?

      Had to give mine up when the battery started to bulge.

      • wildchill on 28/11/2022 - 00:05

        I was about to ask the same thing.. Lol

        My touch screen developed dead spots yrs ago.
        And got super laggy too, even after factory reset.

        I hope my battery doesn't bulge, coz mine serves as a wall Clock now (plugged into charger 24hrs)!

        • montorola on 28/11/2022 - 10:09

          Oh wow, yours is legit still going, nice!!

      • montorola on 28/11/2022 - 10:10

        Haha nah I was just taking the piss. Mine died within two yrs of buying it, wouldn't turn on

  • wildchill on 28/11/2022 - 00:01

    This should be significantly more grunty than all those unisoc T618 tablets right ?

  • mutantdoc on 28/11/2022 - 00:55

    My 2012 Nexus 7 is still going strong!

    • ripprind on 28/11/2022 - 07:00

      I wonder why that is, that some keep going some dont. Should be exactly the same hardware, from the same factory?

  • Wonderstache on 28/11/2022 - 08:37

    Anyone here have experience using one of these to install Windows? I've seen some tutorials online but not sure if it's worth using as a cheap surface replacement.

    • xoom on 28/11/2022 - 08:50

      If doing it to tinker. Sure why not but to actually use instead of a surface device. Dont do it.

  • jasonh on 28/11/2022 - 08:46

    Cheers Clear, another banger. I think this would be a winner, except for the lack of cover/stylus options - which is for some, myself included, a dealbreaker. Any good deals on the Pad 5?

    • Clear on 28/11/2022 - 08:49

      The usual sellers for the Pad 5 aren't included in the sale. I'll look later to see if I can find others

  • GoldAlwaysGold on 28/11/2022 - 10:37

    BigW have Tab A8 for $379 go to OW or JB beat it by 10% for $50 or so more and better specs and device support why go with Xiaomi?

    • dowhatuwant2 on 28/11/2022 - 10:45

      but officeworks have it for $347?

    • Clear on 28/11/2022 - 10:48
      +4

      Better specs? Are you sure? A8's T618 CPU is almost 50% less powerful than the G99, it has half the storage, smaller battery, no fast charging, lower resolution display, lower brightness and lower refresh rate to name a few. It does have GPS however.

      When it comes to updates Samsung provide 3 years of major updates and Xiaomi 3 major updates.

  • Archdon on 28/11/2022 - 15:22

    Redmi Pad or the M10 Plus 3rd gen?

    • spoonmugen on 28/11/2022 - 16:24

      M10 has G80 cpu this has G99…
      and im gonna guess lenovo has 60hz… this is 90hz screen…
      camera is better

      i'm in the same boat - prob go for this

      only thing is i havent ordered from aliexpress in a long time/not sure about delivery times/service?

      • Clear on 28/11/2022 - 17:09

        My orders from 11/11 have been arriving the last 2 weeks. It could be similar with this hopefully. Then again it is close to Christmas.

        • [Deactivated] on 29/12/2022 - 11:57

          Does your redmi pad comes with global custom rom? or official xiaomi rom?

  • nakata on 28/11/2022 - 22:39

    Hey Clear, what tablet do you recommend around $400 for Netflix/light gaming?

  • StealSeeker on 09/01/2023 - 00:44

    Anyone knows the average delivery time to Aus (Melb) if anyone ordered?
