Xiaomi tipped to bring Redmi Pad 5G Android tablet in India soon

The upcoming Redmi Pad 5G Android tablet is expected to cost less than Rs 20,000

After launching the mid-range Xiaomi Pad 5 in India, the Chinese company is planning to bring another model soon.

Reliable tipster Mukul Sharma on Twitter has hinted Xiaomi may launch a Redmi-branded Android 5G tablet in the subcontinent.

Redmi range of phones, fitness watches, and smart TVs--all have received good responses from the public for affordable price offering and we expect the upcoming Redmi Pad 5G will find takers in the price-conscious market like India.

For a long time, the tablet segment has been dominated by Samsung and Apple with the Galaxy Tab S (& A) series and iPads, respectively. With work-from-home and online studies becoming the new normal, there is a lot of pent-up demand for gadgets with big screens, which can not only assist in learning for long hours but also a great medium to watch movies and other types of multimedia consumption.

Now that Xiaomi Pad 5 gives good competition to Galaxy Tab A and generic iPad models in the Rs 20,000 and Rs 30,000 price range, the Redmi Pad (Wi-Fi only) series is most likely to be placed under Rs 20,000 and Rs 10,000 segment. However, the 5G tablet models will cost more.
