    Now available locally, the Xiaomi Pad Mini marks Xiaomi’s debut flagship in the mini tablet category—engineered for multitasking, creativity, and seamless connectivity in a compact form. Built for on-the-go professionals and efficiency-driven users, it combines an 8.8-inch 3K crystal-clear display with a lightweight, ergonomic design that fits comfortably in hand. Whether for work or play, the Xiaomi Pad Mini sets a new standard for portable productivity.

    Xiaomi Pad Mini delivers razor-sharp text and vibrant images with a 3008 x 1880 resolution and 403 pixels per inch. Paired with an adaptive refresh rate of up to 165Hz, the display ensures fluid responsiveness across scrolling and sketching. Dolby Vision® support enriches contrast and color detail, while a 700-nit peak brightness optimizes visibility in all lighting conditions. With full DC Dimming, TÜV Rheinland-certified Low Blue Light (Hardware Solution), Flicker Free, and Circadian Friendly, Xiaomi Pad Mini ensures a comfortable viewing experience. Meanwhile, dual stereo speakers, Hi-Res & Hi-Res Wireless Audio, and Dolby Atmos® deliver an immersive surround audio experience.

    Engineered for ergonomic single-handed usage, Xiaomi Pad Mini measures 132.03mm in width and features a micro-arc middle frame and a metal unibody design with micron-level ceramic sandblasting. As the first Android tablet featuring an SoC-centered design, its key components—including speakers, battery, and motors—are symmetrically arranged around the processor, enhancing overall balance and grip comfort. To complement this structural harmony, the 16:10 aspect ratio enhances vertical viewing and productivity. Moreover, Xiaomi HyperAI delivers an elevated productivity experience, featuring a range of AI-driven tools that include AI Writing, AI Speech Recognition, AI Interpreter, AI Art, and AI Calculator. It also integrates Google Gemini, and supports Circle to Search with Google, for improved device interaction.

    Powered by Mediatek Dimensity 9400+, built on a cutting-edge 3nm process, Xiaomi Pad Mini delivers high-efficiency performance for daily workflows. Optimized for light productivity, the tablet achieves impressive benchmark results with high single-core and multi-core capabilities. A massive 7500mAh (typ) battery delivers extended reading and continuous video playback duration, while 67W HyperCharge provides rapid refueling. Up to 18W wired reverse charging adds utility by allowing Xiaomi Pad Mini to power other devices. Dual Type-C ports on both short and long sides, with the long side supporting USB 3.2 Gen 1 data transfer to deliver versatile functionality in everyday use.

    To further enhance the user experience, Xiaomi Focus Pen, designed for precise operations, delivers a natural writing experience with millisecond-level low latency and high-pressure sensitivity, making it the ideal companion for light productivity and creativity. Xiaomi Pad Mini also pairs with Xiaomi Pad Mini Cover, offering a refined leather-like exterior and reinforced metal rivet wristband for superior portability.
