this is xiaomi's new latest tablet from them it is called the xiaomi pad 6 Pro the top spec
version now it's at the time of this video only an exclusive Chinese release I hope it's going
to be Global but we might only see the xiaomi pad 6 unfortunately it's very thin it's light
it's got a lot of power great battery life so many things going for it so let's find out why
I think this model definitely needs a global release so this unit I got from giztop and I'm
really surprised by their shipping came with DHL and it only took three days amazingly quick so
we get this paperwork here that is in Chinese of course this being the domestic model here it's not
Global just yet I hope it is going to be Global and especially this pro model a 67 watt charger
so it fully charges the tablet in just one hour and that is their claim but I get just over that
it's not bad at all for a 8 600 milliamp hour battery and of course the cable so that's what
is included there is no SIM tray tool because there's no sim support so I'm really liking
the build quality of this xiaomi pad 6 Pro this is a matte finish on the back of it the middle
the alloy feels really good the edges aren't too sharp they're not super rounded off either and
then we've got of course our 15 megapixel camera right here there's a mic on the rear dual tone
LED flash and two megapixel depth camera so great that it's not a two megapixel macro that really
has no point but the depth camera is to help out with the portrait shots so three Pogo Port pin
connectors right here for the attachable optional keyboard there's also an optional stylus now this
review unit did not come from xiaomi that I've got right here and unfortunately I don't have
the keyboard or the stylus it just wasn't ready in time giztop did not have it now I've got some
super exciting news that I am so happy about and I'm going to use it and I have been and that is
the type C Port here yes finally you guessed it it does support video out so we don't have a
3.5 millimeter headphone jack and no micro SD but we've gained that video out and it is USB 3.2 now
it's only the five gigabits per second but I'll take that over USB 2 speeds any day microphone
here we've got two of our loudspeakers and these are Dolby Atmos they do support they'll be at most
the screen also does support Dolby Vision so you can see on the other side there they are and it's
marking there the Dolby Vision Dolby Atmos now this is not a SIM tray sadly this model unlike
the previous it does not have SIM support so no network connectivity with it this is a capacitive
always on fingerprint reader slash power button there is face unlocking with a 20 megapixel
camera right here and it does seem to work pretty well but remember it's not that secure but the
fingerprint reader is and this is working really well so I've enabled through the settings that
this to touch it to enable it which can sometimes trigger some accidental ones but I simply just tap
it and you'll see there it goes and unlocks just like that now that isn't the fastest I
have seen from a fingerprint reader but it's not bad I'll do that one more time so touching it now
all right that was a lot quicker that was under a second and the bezels they're not bad at all okay
with it now the tablet is light it is just 490 grams and the thickness is the best part I think
it is 6.5 millimeters now you see up here we have a blank here now that's not anything it's not a
button it's not a SIM tray that's probably where the SIM tray would be if they did have the network
support with it so we've got microphones here and a metal volume and up and down button now these
buttons do not rattle they have a very good feel to it so overall the build quality is excellent
from the xiaomi pad 6 Pro our display here is an IPS now 144 Hertz is the refresh rate now I
do have this widget enabled through the developer options because I want to look at the frame rate
and the refresh rate now I've been monitoring this and I can happily report here yes it is
144 Hertz and it is running at normally 144 frames per second you see the occasional dip down to like
135 or something like that but it's normal that is going to happen on any tech there so that is just
fine there now looking at the screen brightness is 450 Nets is what I'm measuring just over that
they claim it's 550 so I'm not able to quite get that it could be down to my panel or it could be
that they've just upped that result a little bit that could be also my measuring equipment but it's
good it's a bright screen looks great now when you look at it at certain angles because it's
an IPS you're going to see this slightly darker edges to it so there is that now if it was OLED
or an AMOLED screen which personally I would have preferred this to have been it wouldn't
have this issue the colors would be a little bit more uniformed so what you're looking at is the
out of the box here configuration the colors so what they do have set is the the vibrant mode
so I'll just go sorry into our display settings here and I'll just show you that so you can see
the UI performance is really good everything's running fantastic really really fast so it's 128
gigabytes ufs 3.1 storage and 8 gigabytes of RAM time that I do have with us but non-expandable
now you see here uh the different modes we've got so color scheme you can adjust that oh it's
original color Pro that I do have it on sorry you've got Vivid then saturated so if you want
something that mimics a little bit like an OLED screen then just whack it into uh saturated there
but no it's a very good screen I'm happy with it now in direct sunlight you'll you'll struggle a
little bit with it with that 400 and about 58 or so nits that I'm measuring it's all right it's
fine and indoors will you'll probably be using the tablet no it's looking really good now it does run
Android 13 and we have MIUI pad they call it 14 so this is specific to the tablets and as I just said
before the performance is excellent now I believe and I've experienced this with all my reviews
of xiaomi products that the Chinese ROMs seem to just have the best performance overall they really
seem to just be a bit faster they don't show that little spinning icon when you unlock things it all
seems to this pop up really quick there so you can see there that it's a new iPad 14.0 0.3 there was
one update that I'll show you later on for it and storage here I don't have an amazing amount so I'd
probably be better off at least with my own needs to get the 256 gigabyte model but no it's been
really quick gestures touch is working quite well and they do have a few features here that they've
customized for tablets so they've got their kids space keywords for tablet you can go through but
I just run gboard here and floating windows you can do split screen all of that good stuff we do
of course have and I'll just go into Chrome here for example and show you like you can set this
up as split screen so you can just hold it here and go there you go I want to have it on one side
here then bring up my gallery that's possible and again when you're using both of them at least with
chrome here because it's reasonably lightweight it's very fluid and still we are managing to pump
out yeah 144 frames per second although it's just telling me 60 now depends on the content so this
here the album has gone to 60 oh no there we go since I touched it it's gone back up to 144. so
it is a variable reflex refresh rate which I will also show you there too so I forgot to
mention that just before about our display do apologize for that very important so refresh
rate override I always just force it to 144 I want that performance but this is really good
I'm so happy that I'm sitting here and saying this look they have 90 Hertz The Sweet Spot so if you
want that battery life but you don't want to take a huge hit on it of course we're only 144 but you
still want things to be smooth it's definitely 90 Hertz you want to run with this tablet so the UI
their performance I'm not really seeing any lag everything seems to be great and I'm loving this
I can't believe I'm actually saying this this MIUI version this is good this is very good
what I'm seeing out of this Chinese ROM so it's not Global and it doesn't come with Google Play
installed but you can install it yourself now the tablet does not have any flicker it doesn't suffer
from that issue you won't see any banding or any flick or any problems you get that with the OLED
screens AMOLED screens but this is IPS so we're not suffering from the pulse width modulation
issue that some of you do have the latest patch here so we have a security patch level of April
now so we are up to date and here this is what the ROM is like after you remove all the Chinese
bloatware so yes there is quite a bit there's all these different Chinese apps on there but when you
clean it up just remove here Netflix wasn't there Amazon Prime video and gentian those are my Omen
stalls there but once you get rid of that you are basically bloatware free I think it's even better
here than the global ROMs from xiaomi that tend to be quite bloated this doesn't seem to be as
bad and a lot of things you can just completely get rid of so it does have a wide Vine level one
cert so this means well Netflix is going to be in full HD Disney plus Amazon Prime video and
Netflix I've been watching a lot of on this tablet because I love the size of it being 11 inches
very comfortable and only 490 grams it's great I think for just media consumption like that so
full HD but we don't have HDR support now this is an HDR 10 supporting tablet it also does have
Dolby Vision but for some reason Netflix is not recognizing that so maybe that'll be fixed when
the global version does come out I really do hope so battery life phenomenal super good here
I think it's because of I don't know various factors probably the IPS screen but more but
probably because of just the optimization of this ROM really good and an 8 600 milliamp hour battery
is a decent size for an 11 inch tablet so what I'm looking at is around about 9 to 10 hours is what
you can squeeze out of this thing and even just using it over a few days and use it a few hours
every day the battery drain the standby battery drain has been excellent really good and it drops
down a little bit and when you're watching video I've been watching a lot of Netflix has mentioned
it really hardly loses anything so the battery life is great I only probably need to charge this
maybe once a year five days or so and that's using it every day a few hours now stress testing it
this is the 20 minute very demanding graphically that is Benchmark the loops and Loops from 3dmark
Wildlife extreme test and look at this it only throttled down not even four percent brilliant
really good you see this when you game and I have my gaming test coming up soon that The Thermals
are great doesn't seem to really throttle at all and they've done a very good job there with the
cooling of the Snapdragon 8 plus gen 1 with this 11 inch tablet now internal storage very
quick this says ufs 3.1 so yeah it's not ufs 4.0 the latest and greatest uh but you need
the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for that of course but these speeds no one's going to be complaining
about them I mean look at the random reads and writes they are very good and there is no layer
coming from this tablet when you're installing or loading your applications or even just viewing
your gallery with a lot of photos and apps and different documents there's no lag with that at
all so a very respectable great score here we are looking at Flagship performance still even though
yes it's the last gen chip so just over a million points here for our antutu score that's great and
it only went up 3.9 degrees Celsius losing three percent battery three very good result here a
great use of this tablet is this too as well so ebooks PDF files I will just jump into this which
is quite a heavy uh file here that is running now through this PDF file through Google Books and you
can see here I'll just dismiss that it wants me to go over into the night mode the performance is
excellent now this is not still quite iPad level when it comes to heavy PDF files I don't think
they'll ever be able to match that but it still does really good it plays a little bit of catch up
so holding it and portrait comfortable it's only the 400 of course and 90 grams and really I have
found it to be a great device here for ebooks and PDFs so have a look now quickly at a eBook
and this is great it does look good the text is sharp I don't find I really strain my eyes and do
remember that you can invert the text so you can have the background black the text white if you
find that a little bit more comfortable you can put a blue light filter on and you can also make
this all grayscale and just change a few things there to make it even more comfortable so as an
ebook reader it is fantastic for that a little bit Overkill too with that kind of performance
every Gamers out there you've got fantastic performers here with the xiaomi pad 6 Pro it's
very good so I have it on the highest visual settings here again chain impact and you can
see the frame rate well it's 60 frames per second normally solid I do sometimes see it occasionally
dipped to 51 51 or 50 is the lowest that I have seen with this game which is great and yes I do
realize I'm not in a super built up area so it could lag a little bit more but this is probably
one of the best kind of performances you're going to see out of a tablet with this price
point here so great for gamers great gaming performance and because of the Quad speakers
very immersive great audio and just in general I love gaming on the xiaomi pad 6 Pro and what
about our audio so we have the four speakers on this side and if you are holding it like so and
you're watching for example some YouTube videos you can accidentally block at least two of those
speakers but I don't find it to be too much of an issue now of course if you've got a tablet stand
you'll use that or if you have the keyboard you can use that instead and these speakers here so
they are Adobe audio speakers the four of them quite loud reasonable amount of bass well just a
little bit meds are fine they're actually pretty good speakers for an 11 inch tablet so I'll give
you a sample of them but just before I do this is YouTube playback here at 1080p I've set it to
the higher picture quality in fact no that's 4K that it is currently playing right now and look
at it it's smooth it's fine it does not seem to be dropping any frames per second because
it's running at 29 to 30 frames per second here but anyway here's a sample of the four speakers
oh
so those speakers they sound really good good volume to them xiaomi overall they have done
an excellent job with the quad speakers we get with the pad 6 Pro and over to the video now you
can expect out of the xiaomi pad 6 Pro so this is the front facing camera 1080p 30 frames per
second or 60 frames per second yes 60 is there now the audio sounds a little bit scratchy we
do have yet again that 96 kilobits per second audio bitrate uh they've gone back to that now
and then the rear camera this is our 50 megapixel sand so you can shoot 4K quality doesn't seem to
be quite as good as their phones but for a tablet it's not too bad here the focus seems to be fine
no real issues with it and it does have electronic image stabilization so just like the front facing
camera you can see that the focus yeah no problems with it so not bad video quality for a tablet
so xiaomi has done a lot of things right with this model so first off I've got to mention it
is finally finally finally yes we have video out via the type C port and USB 3.2 it's only
five gigabits per second but hey I'll take that over USB 2 specs any day so the screen IPS it
does show a little bit of dark edges around the corners but overall it's not a bad screen super
responsive to touch and I think most people are going to be very happy with it it doesn't have
any flickering or any of those problems you get with oleds or amoleds 144 Hertz and even a 90
Hertz Sweet Spot option performance is fantastic the Chinese rhyme here while it only has English
and Chinese it's really well optimized none of that little spinning loading the UI icons no
none of that it's just spot on performance is great and it seems to be bug free which
is a rarity especially when I review the global ROMs of MIUI but no this one is fantastic build
quality fantastic very good great loudspeakers really good performance for gamers out there and
then the loudspeakers they are also impressive and it will fully charge in just over an hour
for me around about an hour and eight minutes we'll charge the 8 600 milliamp hour batteries
it takes so many boxes but it's not Global no micro SD card no 3.5 millimeter headphone
jack sadly and it does not have 5G or 4G support pricing of the global version if we get it I hope
it's closer to the Chinese pricing but it'll likely be quite a bit higher so thank you so
much for watching my review here of this fantastic Android 13 tablet from xiaomi the xiaomi pad 6 Pro
