Redmi Pad 2 Pro 5G review

The Redmi Pad 2 Pro 5G enters the tablet race with serious ambition: a large 12.1-inch 2.5K display, a 120 Hz refresh rate, the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 chipset, and a massive 12,000 mAh battery.   Design and Construction The Pad 2 Pro sports a large 12.1-inch form factor but keeps a thin profile (7.5 mm) and weighs around 610 g. It’s funny, right before 300% is 200% but when counting how many steps it takes to get to that level from muted, it comes down to less than 20 button presses.   Overall for display and multimedia, the Redmi Pad 2 Pro 5G provides a good multimedia experience. If the end-user's primary concern is camera quality, smartphones still lead but for tablet use, the cameras found on the Redmi Pad 2 Pro 5G are serviceable. OS, Apps and UI The Redmi Pad 2 Pro runs Xiaomi’s HyperOS 2 and supports tablet-optimized features like split-screen, drag-and-drop multitasking, and optional accessories like a smart pen or keyboard (sold separately). Performance and Benchmarks Under the hood the Redmi Pad 2 Pro 5G features a Snapdragon 7s Gen 4, a 4nm chipset consisting of an octa-core processor with clock-speeds that go up to 2.7 GHz and an Adreno 810 GPU.  Our review unit is configured with 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM (with 4GB of virtual RAM extension) and 256GB of UFS 2.2 internal storage.
