Thanks for the comment. I don't know it happened before they tried to "send me a message" by pulling review units delaying them and messing about with me. It happened again and I'm not playing their games with them trying to manipulate my reviews. This doesn't mean I cannot buy Xiaomi tech that interests me like this Pad 6 Pro and 13 Ultra which is coming maybe next week the review. 99% sure I will buy the Xiaomi 14 series and review it (Chinese ROM) and also the Mix Fold 3 when out if it's interesting.

Took Xiaomi long enough to finally put USB3.2 on their products. Am surprised at the fluidity of MIUI 14 for pad and how you commended it! Android tablets have really came a long way.
One of the possible reasons, is inventory. They might have many lower version USB ports lying around. To keep the price low, they order or manufacture in bulk to save cost.
nice and i wonder how about split screen on vertical mode is they can use split screen on top and bottom now ? on previos pad 5 they cant split top and bottom on vertical mode it suck that why most of people go with galaxy tab s instead
i bought Poco F3 after watching your review. and never regret it. your detailed reviews never seems to disappoint. always helps us to buy when other channels always seems to be biased to certain products. keep it up,Chris!
@@potroshutelincognito250Maybe it just Thailand's banks but I can use custom ROM just fine. I use helluvaOS. It doesn't root so I guess it works fine. But you need to disable developer options before use. After using it though you don't NEED custom rom, normal will work absolutely fine.

I have the Xiaomi Mipad 5 and it’s still really good. I prefer smaller tablets but I can’t argue with Xiaomi’s quality. I just wish Netflix would allow the best video quality on them
@@aaronjgeorge Hi mate, i was actually hesitating on buying the pad 6 pro because of the HD video quality vis-a-vis of Netflix. I saw there and there that because it is in Chinese version, there is chances of not having widevine L1. In the end meaning streaming Netflix in HD isn't possible, even tho the screen is more than capable of... Are you telling me it's ok with the 6pro ?
@@luxlivatthana158 I'm saying the widevine issue was fixable on the mipad 5, I'm not sure about the 6 tho I'm certain if it worked on the 5 it should definitely work on the 6
Thanks for the review as always Chris. Tablet looks good, I like the 11" size and the 8+ gen1 is a great choice from Xiaomi. Bezels are fine, we still need something to grab into. Still disappointed in the IPS screen, hopefully if the Galaxy Tab S9 comes back with an AMOLED the Chinese manufacturers will follow suit. Glad you finally got your USB video out lol I wonder what it will retail here in Europe, Lenovo recently always has their P11 Pro gen2 8/256 mediatek model (currently typing from one!) For sale at 349€ from their website and a bunch of etailers and that's a lot of value to go against. Cheers
The P11 Pro gen 2 is a great tablet. I would have loved to have seen this with OLED or AMOLED that was a mistake I think and the removal of MicroSD support.

@@Techtablets owner of a mi pad 5. bought it almost 2 years back and i think it was and still is quite one of the best value / money tablet (now a bit more in the budget friendly area). and i am saying this not because it the most powerful... but more like for the small price for a decent all rounder (great battery life, bright display with dolby vision 120Hz (even though not oled - that's it's only small downside that i see), very good speakers, and snapdragon 860 which is still a great chipset even now - powerful enough to run most things smoothly and also battery efficient and no issues). the price i got it then on offer was like 290euro and now you can find it easily at around 260 euro -> very hard to deny it's value for money. But yes it's time for the new gen to show it's prowess. the pad 6 with the sd 870 - it's also a very hard to ignore offer... and this pro version with that 8+gen one... even though a bit higher prices i still think it's more than a decent price at 430-450$. As much as xiaomi seems to be struggling a bit with the competition in the mobile phone area, I think they nailed it with their tablet offers
Looks like a great tablet. I have the mi pad 5 and it held up pretty well. Still great with all the tasks I through at it. I guess maybe I will upgrade to this new version
Thanks for watching! If you're new to my review videos I always have a Pros and Cons in there. From tablets, mobiles to eBikes it's in there the good and bad :)
Thanks alot for the review on this TechTablets! you are probably the first few to review this. So far Im using my new Doogee T20 Tab, Id love to get a Xiaomi Tab once I decide. Tho the Lenovo Tab Extreme has just released
@@Techtablets look forward to your videos buddy. I'm still thinking whether buy or not the 13 ultra. I'm currently rocking Xiaomi 13 Pro & magic vs as daily drivers.
As always, and consistently, one of the best reviewers out there. If you are in the hunt to buy any device and you want a thorough review and opinion TechTablets is the goto man. I have bought a whole ecosystem of Huawei devices thanks to his reviews. Love from Argentina.
@@Techtablets Thanks for your reply, and yes, although Huawei has been hit by the sanctions it is quite livable using HarmonyOS in my Watch (Fit 2), Phone (Mate 50 Pro), and Tablet (MatePad Pro 11), 99.9% of Apps are available and work well. I also have a MatebookD16, super laptop. Happy with Huawei. All the hardware is phenomenal.
There are a lot of impressive full size tablets coming out, but I prefer small tablets that have decent performance. That leaves me with 3 options total, Apple iPad Mini 6, Lenovo Legion Y700 and Realme Pad Mini (I have all 3). All of these tablets have some annoying problems with them, but the Y700 is the best of the bunch. I would love to see Xiaomi, Lenovo or Google make a good global market small tablet again.
Hi im considering to buy y700 but waiting for the 2023 version to come out.what would you say the cons for the y700 that you have experienced so far compared to the others?
@@maharah93 The typical overly customized Chinese ROM issues. Over aggressive battery saving, background data restrictions, you have to enable a setting to allow Google Play to work. Just weird stuff that should not be in Android and really provides no value. Also, for some reason I can't play Wild Rift anymore. Works fine on my Xiaoxin Pad Pro 2021 which seems to have the same OS.
They probably were originally planning on adding a sim tray but backed out at the last second due to having to cut costs I wish companies made it more normal to use external storage like a SD card
Unfortunately, the old pen is not compatible to Pad 6 and Pad 6 Pro, so you need to buy the new one. Xiaomi channeling its inner Apple on that one. ;-)
Hello my friend, I am one of your Arab followers and I am from Iraq 🇮🇶, but how much is this device and when will it be available in the Middle East? With all due respect and appreciation to you I hope you will respond to my comment ❤😊🎉🎉
Good specs but frame looks bit thick for "pro"device in my opinion. I'm still in love with my first generation Huawei Matepad Pro. If I need a new tablet I would probably prefer an oled screen. Thanks for the review Chris.
The Matepad Pro's are awesome tablets, I have my Matepad 11 still works great and really nice type cover keyboard. 6.5mm isn't bad Vs 5.5mm 1mm doesn't make too much of a difference.
Wow this surprised me, was expecting the rom performance to be much worse. It seems this really will be the best reasonably priced gaming pad out there given the fact that unless you are willing to pay crazy Samsung prices there is nothing else with a Snapdragon Gen 1 available. Would love to see how this compares to the Oneplus pad / Oppo Pad 2 / Vivo pad 2. Will you be reviewing any of those? I love the aspect ratio and look of those new BBK pads but they won't be able to compete on performance with Dimensity 9000. I think the vivo is also the only one with video out over USB 3.2 as well. I do wonder though what we can expect in terms of android updates as a lot of these Chinese manufacturer pads tend to get neglected, my mipad 4 didn't get a single update.
Mi Pad 4 had terrible updates and yes I also expected to see some performance issues with the rom but nope it runs so well! Not sure if I will review the OnePlus Pad has they said there are no review units. If I buy one it's delivered in June. Far too late by then no interest or views.
@@Techtablets Yeah hopefully nowadays xiaomi is a little better with tablet updates. The OP pad seems to have gained some pretty positive reviews already. I think giztop and ali are both selling the vivo pad 2 and oppo pad 2 currently.
I bought Vivo Pad 2 with its pencil 2 and been using it 1week now. It is 80$ cheaper than Oneplus and Oppo pad 2 and with USB 3.2 while Oneplus and Oppo offer only 2.0 version. I hope you can review it soon Chris.
Another honest tablet review. BTW, I seriously think companies should invest more on putting a dedicated 'Reading mode' on tablets like these, which will not strain the eyes. Focusing on camera tech in a tablet of this size doesn't seem all that necessary.
*Now, there's a new candidate for testing GPU performance: Honkai: Star Rail* It's insane that the GPU of my 8+G1 is already maxing out in their latest map 😐
Hi Chris, again a great review, thanks! @Techtablets A question: I want to purchase a future proof tablet mostly for remote work with zoom. Would you, in terms of selfie video & mics, rather recommend this Xiaomi 6 Pro, or the Xiaoxin Pad Pro which you also highly recommended? 💙
Best size for gaming but not many are aware of it, especially when many (of the few existing) 7-9" tablets have underwhelming performance for gaming.. 🥴🫣
Many thanks for this review. I am thinking about the 512 GB version which is available in Vietnam where I live. I bought their flagship phone 12S Ultra last year and use it exclusively for photography which I am quite pleased with…
Chris, I just love your in-depth reviews. I bought an Alldocube i40Pro tablet based on your review including a Teclast T7 laptop all on your reviews. I now need both in one and would enjoy a review on a Chinese tablet to take over both units for me. Maybe Lenovo tab p12 or Xiaomi pad 6.
Great review, I like this tablet maybe it will be available globally. I already have the the pad 5 and it still perform very well. Battery life is excellent. The camera is actually decent for a tablet but no fingerprint senzor. But I am not going to upgrade with this one. I don't know if there is a big difference.
Nice review. Thanks. Interesting product. Regarding HDR support in Netflix: I had the same issue with my Poco F3 I think. In my case, I went to the apps menu in the settings, flushed the cache and deleted the storage, maybe also restarted the phone (can't recall) and then opened Netflix again. Obviously your user profile and login info will be reset to default, so you'll have to log in again, but when you do, you should have HDR if it's the same issue I had.
Hi, thanks for the tip. I did try that as it was a method to sometimes get from L3 SD to L1 FHD. But still no HDR, I think it must be Netflix isn't reading the widevine correctly or doesn't want to enable HDR10 and Dolby vision support? Hopefully this will change as I've been enjoying Netflix on it some much due to the size and weight. (Coming from my huge S8 Ultra)
For long term use since not everyone is upgrading every year.. we all actually prefer a great IPS screen instead of an OLED.. we dont have to worry about burn in.. screen flicker.. yellow light siber.. etc..
As I said in the video I have the Xiaomi 13 Ultra I bought and Pad 6 Pro. But no more review units coming from them now, anything you see is what I decided to buy that thought was worth covering. None of the constant rebranded Poco and Redmi midrange and low end phones I'm done with all them.
@@joelconolly5574 The problem is with Xiaomi. They're refusing to send review units because his opinions are too honest. He gives both the positives and negatives and Xiaomi don't like that.
@@Techtablets I hope u get more subscribers and likes to earn enough money to buy more Xiaomi unit to give 100% honest reviews. Let them feel the itch in the butt
Well they wont like me reviewing this :) Since it's the Chinese ROM and not global. But yes I will try and buy some of the interesting releases if I can. But no more midrange Poco rubbish or Redmi rubbish unless it really is something special again for the price.
Great video as always! And nothing from Xiaomi bringing a desktop mode in MIUI. Google needs to do this soon so that everyone can enjoy apps with advanced functions, work mode and games.
Hi! Coming from a Huawei matepad t10s user. What are much more better? Xiaomi pad5 or xiaomi pad 6 pro? Because I want to find an amazing tablet for schoolwork, gaming, and videocalls. Unfortunately Huawei Matepad t10s lacks alot of features when I first got it in my birthday, not that I'm dissappointed but just want better specs for a budget price.
As the owner of the Xiaomi Pad 5, I think, that there is absolutely no reason to buy the Xiaomi Pad 6/Pro. In my opinion, the only obvious difference is the more powerful processor. SD 860 is still great. If you do not play heavy games, then this processor is enough for all tasks, including browsing, reading, watching videos, etc. The rest of the changes are minor. I don't need a USB 3.2 with a VideoOut. However, I would buy this tablet if it had an AMOLED screen. But for now I'll stay on the Xiaomi Pad 5. Although I will probably buy a Galaxy Tab S9 (S9+) as soon as it will be available. I want to own a tablet with an AMOLED screen again. And, yes. 3:20 - it's the place to charge the stylus. Will you compare this tablet with the new tablets from BBK? On paper, Xiaomi looks preferable. But how will it be in reality? It would be interesting. Thanks for this video!
Yes no huge reason to upgrade unless you really need the extra power. Good for gamers this model i fine. As for the BBK tablets I've asked OnePlus and no review.units. not sure I'll buy them maybe. But shipping is in June by then there interest is gone.
4:36 We need more tablets with AMOLED screens. Today I feel like I'm stuck with Samsung as my only option. I hate OneUI 💀 but I use it because the high quality screen is my priority.
They finally listen to your demand Chris, I'm talking about USB 3.2. Mi pad 13 with a good camera, video, sound quality and battery life. Xiaomi should acknowledge you are the one of most honest TH-camrs with 💯 in your reviews.
As i mentioned in the video I have this tablet and the Xiaomi 13 Ultra and then I'll see if I buy anything else form them. Maybe the Xiaomi 14 Pro at the end of the year or Mix Fold 3.
@@Techtablets yeah it is, but with ar glasses on the horizon tablets are gonna become a waste of money soon I just need a Samsung phone with a headphone jack guess I'll stick with a Galaxy s10
My Amazon fire 10 is going onto its 4th year and battery isn’t great anymore. I think I’ll wait for a pad 7 to come out IF my Amazon fire doesn’t die earlier but will definitely go with Xiaomi for my next tablet for sure. Great review as always!
No MicroSD on a tablet is dead on arrival. How do you consume your content when you're out and don't have wifi (airplane). Overpaying for internal storage is a scam when there's so much space to add a microsd slot.
your Xiaomi reviews are very truthful and non bias and yet Xiaomi Marketing Team is still butthurt with facts like 1080p front camera on 13 Ultra. Xiaomi better get things together with you.
Not sure but they have messed about with me since the 10T Pro. And this isn't the first time they delayed or pulled review units. I'll see what happens but after my video from yesterday that's the end of it I would think.
Another brilliant review. Sometimes I read e books on black mode at night - does the screen get really dark when reading inverted e books? Not sure if I should really just wait for an OLED/AMOLED screen!
The title fits perfect , it truly is much better than expected. Makes me wonder if I should buy Xiaomi devices that are using the Chinese Rom instead of the global one. If this gets a global release, then it's going to replace my 2020 Huawei Mate Pad Pro. BTW Chris, what smart watches do you recommend for android? I'm not a person who does sports or get out too much sadly. I was looking at Garmin Fenyx 6 Pro or 7 Pro. I'm sick of Samsungs 1 day battery life and very, very slow charging speeds. What are you using? Thank you for the video.
Title does suit as it was a pleasant surprise I thought it might have bad throttling and thermals but not at all. As for the watches I use myself the Huawei Watch 3 GT Pro and it's fantastic up to 10 days battery life. It just goes so long. I hate the 1-2 day battery life watches.
@TechTablets me too. It's totally useless. To be honest, I'm not a fan of Huawei Watches at all. They don't work too well with Samsung phones. Maybe the newer ones do, I stopped buying them since I last used GT2. I've heard that Garmin is very good. But I've never used any. I'm surprised at how good the tablet is. A bit disappointing with the screen
as a person who likes to mess with my devices, you can do a lot of workarounds in chinese ROM to have for example multi language support and nearby share. It becomes the same experience as the global ROM but with 5x its smoothness (currently doing it with my pad 5 and it's game changer)
15:59 Its perfect for your hand Chris. Do you think this can be use as a stream tablet? Like plugin on streamlabs or OBS and stream in via TH-cam or FB? I hope Xiaomi will do this to all of their products having 3.0 spec USB
Yes I hope Xiaomi will go forward and give all mid and high end devices USB 3.2 with video out now. As for streaming and OBS via TH-cam I think it will as it has the power and good thermals. Throttling is almost not there at all which shocked me.
Xiaomi marketing guy: Chris, we want you to review our products again. Thank you for the nice tablet review! Moments later... Chris: This Xiaomi product is poor quality. Xiaomi marketing guy: You are out man! Don't review our products ever again!
Just ordered this one. Really like the double GPU power on it compared to the normal 6. Means my games use half of the power while running on the same FPS.
Does this not put a 'lump in your throat' after Xiaomi ghosting you, (*after your previous vid)? 🤔 I get you, (and subscribe to you), and LOVE what you do. It's a shame Xiaomi did that to you, especially as you always hold them in quite high regard!? 😐 Anyway, keep up the good work mate, from Mike here, in MANCHESTER, ENGLAND! 👍👍🤘
Will get mine tomorrow. Battery runtime and charging speed is important to me so I bought the Pro. Would have liked a cardslot on that one - at least transfer speeds will be good - other than that on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (Exynos model) which has a cardslot, though. Fortunately, prices for higher configs are not over the top, so the Pro with 256 GB flash (my model) does not cost you an arm and a leg. Will be interested in seeing battery runtime at 90 Hz which would be enough for me. For around 500 bucks not a shabby tablet with all its features. It's insane how much other manufacturers charge for higher end hardware! Xiaomi's update policy for that model hopefully will not be too bad. Would have been great if it came with the pen. Maybe I can get one later at a cheap price. ;-)
I was considering buying one too, but i don't how the Chinese ROM will affect it. What's your reason for not waiting for the global? Did you think about all the downsides?
@@luxlivatthana158 There is still no global version. I can live with the UI being in English. The on-screen keyboard is in German which is good enough for me. Getting the tablet ready took me at least 1 hour. Great tablet! Fortunately, there are no other downsides (yet).
Problem with Xiaomi is there miui which gets laggy overtime and has lot of bugs slow updates there only USP is giving good hardware at low price than flagship device competition but If I will have to choose between this pro and tab s8+ I will without a doubt will go for samsung tab s8+ there timely updates and one UI for tablet has way more function and is stable. Xiaomi's Miui is just streched version of mobile for table
For sure if you want the best software for Android tablets. OneUI it is. I use a S8 Ultra and it's so good, updates like big ones are slow but we get them. MIUI is sure to slow down as it does and sometimes new patches introduce bugs.
Good on ya mate for being objective and still reviewing their products while not holding back in it even though they removed you from their preferred reviewer list.
Which models? I really stopped buy those Xiaomi laptops because I lost a lot of money covering them, inflated prices from retailers on Aliexpress, import charges and then poor resale. Every one I lost 300-400 euros after taxes. And Xiaomi never wanted to end them to me.
@@Techtablets I liked your RedmiBook 15 Pro review last year, but you unfortunately did not cover the XiaomiBook Pro 14/16, and there are no english reviews of it on TH-cam, even though I believe that it's a great machine. Maybe TradingShenzhen could provide you with a review unit?
nice review btw the long wait is over finally they have added hdmi out over usb c in xiaomi pad 6 pro because i dont need to use annoying and hassle displaylink adapter anymore in xiaomi pad 6 pro all you need is usb c hub with hdmi and pd fast charging unlike before in xiaomi pad 5 you need to have a displaylink adapter and usb c hub in order to have a hdmi out the displaylink pressenter app sometimes is working and sometimes is not working
Hi there, Your content has always been helpful in terms of understanding the specs of a device especially the ones that aren't released in US market. I'm interested in getting the Xiami pad 6 pro but I'm a little bit concerned since there is not a global ROM. How's your experience using the Chinese ROM outside of China? Thank you!
great review, as always. pretty detailed and focused on things we actually need to know. are you considering testing Oneplus tab? i would really like a comparisson between the 2 best android tablets
I'm not sure OnePlus told me no review units. If I buy one the deliver is in June I saw so by then the interest is gone and no views. Unless I import it from china not sure.
@@Techtablets oh ok, that's a bummer. I would make an interesting video for sure, they are pretty similar in a lot of things but each has its own pros. And also, testing their native pens, for me it's a must as it's my most used input method 😅 but I get it that business wise, doesn't make a lot of sense
The cut on the top that you said was for sim card, its for the wirlees pencil charching, the pencil rest on the top on the tablet and the cut on the metal allows the charge
Its abt screen size and aspect ratio Oneplus pad 11.6 in (7:5) Xiaomi pad 6s pro 12.4 in (3:2) Ipad 11in , pro 12.9 in (4:3) Samsung tab plus 12.4 in or ultra 14.6 in (16:10) If u got money just go ipad regular or pro for snappier isntant pdf loading (even heavy size pdfs are loaded instant, no waiting to load pdf pages)
Hmmm, I don't really see why anyone would go for these when the Mi Pad 5 itself is already available with half its original price for some decent used units, unless they need the video out...
Hey @TechTablets, any chance you'll be reviewing the Vivo Pad 2 anytime soon? I'm interested, but at the moment there's not a lot info about it out there

This and then the 13 Ultra reviewing coming, but no POCO F5 coverage from me, no more Redmi or others unless I decide to get them myself to review.
You should review them. Now we would come to your reviews to get the unbiased version❤
It would be too hard now 2-3 weeks after the first videos.
Thanks for the review as always Chris.
Tablet looks good, I like the 11" size and the 8+ gen1 is a great choice from Xiaomi. Bezels are fine, we still need something to grab into. Still disappointed in the IPS screen, hopefully if the Galaxy Tab S9 comes back with an AMOLED the Chinese manufacturers will follow suit.
Glad you finally got your USB video out lol
I wonder what it will retail here in Europe, Lenovo recently always has their P11 Pro gen2 8/256 mediatek model (currently typing from one!) For sale at 349€ from their website and a bunch of etailers and that's a lot of value to go against.
Cheers
The P11 Pro gen 2 is a great tablet. I would have loved to have seen this with OLED or AMOLED that was a mistake I think and the removal of MicroSD support.
Comparing an MTK device with a tsmc made snapdragon, lol
Amolers degrade, specially when used at high brightness.

I have had Xiaomi Pad 5 for 1.5 years and the thing is excellent... Best tablet I ever owned.
Does it support 5G wifi?
@@BenSXD. If you mean 5 GHz Wifi, yes it does.
Alright !! Thanks for the info
Same here. Had it since it was launched..
@@jackwilson5542 do you use stylus? If yes, how good is it? Also how good service does it give for taking notes?
Nice, I've been using Mipad4 since it came out, and it's working still and awesome. Could be an upgrade :)
Mi Pad 4 was a great tablet.
@@Techtablets owner of a mi pad 5. bought it almost 2 years back and i think it was and still is quite one of the best value / money tablet (now a bit more in the budget friendly area). and i am saying this not because it the most powerful... but more like for the small price for a decent all rounder (great battery life, bright display with dolby vision 120Hz (even though not oled - that's it's only small downside that i see), very good speakers, and snapdragon 860 which is still a great chipset even now - powerful enough to run most things smoothly and also battery efficient and no issues). the price i got it then on offer was like 290euro and now you can find it easily at around 260 euro -> very hard to deny it's value for money. But yes it's time for the new gen to show it's prowess. the pad 6 with the sd 870 - it's also a very hard to ignore offer... and this pro version with that 8+gen one... even though a bit higher prices i still think it's more than a decent price at 430-450$. As much as xiaomi seems to be struggling a bit with the competition in the mobile phone area, I think they nailed it with their tablet offers
Me using MiPad 1:
@@theirregularadventurersI dont know where you are from in europe but in giztop the pad 6 (non-pro) is at 350euros
@@nassiml4852 yep... that's one device that i didn't mention the price for, and it totally makes sense to be in between the 5 and the 6 pro. :))
Looks like a great tablet. I have the mi pad 5 and it held up pretty well. Still great with all the tasks I through at it. I guess maybe I will upgrade to this new version
Not a huge atep up mostly the performance. If you game a lot it would be worth it.
Thanks for the honest review! Unlike others only talking about positive things when reviewing products..
Thanks for watching! If you're new to my review videos I always have a Pros and Cons in there. From tablets, mobiles to eBikes it's in there the good and bad :)
Thanks alot for the review on this TechTablets! you are probably the first few to review this.
So far Im using my new Doogee T20 Tab, Id love to get a Xiaomi Tab once I decide.
Tho the Lenovo Tab Extreme has just released
Nice video bro. Great to see that u are still reviewing Xiaomi device 👍👍 I hope Xiaomi global will appreciate your efforts more 💪💪
This and the 13 Ultra and then will see what I decided to buy to review maybe the Mix Fold 2 next.
@@Techtablets look forward to your videos buddy. I'm still thinking whether buy or not the 13 ultra. I'm currently rocking Xiaomi 13 Pro & magic vs as daily drivers.
As always, and consistently, one of the best reviewers out there. If you are in the hunt to buy any device and you want a thorough review and opinion TechTablets is the goto man. I have bought a whole ecosystem of Huawei devices thanks to his reviews. Love from Argentina.
Huawei tech is great even handicapped with sanctions they are still pushing out some awesome tech. I'll have more Huawei content soon!
@@Techtablets kind a looks like copy of iPad Pro
It does but that's what they all seem to do, copy apple and constantly compare themselves to Apple.
@@Techtablets Thanks for your reply, and yes, although Huawei has been hit by the sanctions it is quite livable using HarmonyOS in my Watch (Fit 2), Phone (Mate 50 Pro), and Tablet (MatePad Pro 11), 99.9% of Apps are available and work well. I also have a MatebookD16, super laptop. Happy with Huawei. All the hardware is phenomenal.
There are a lot of impressive full size tablets coming out, but I prefer small tablets that have decent performance. That leaves me with 3 options total, Apple iPad Mini 6, Lenovo Legion Y700 and Realme Pad Mini (I have all 3). All of these tablets have some annoying problems with them, but the Y700 is the best of the bunch. I would love to see Xiaomi, Lenovo or Google make a good global market small tablet again.
Why do you need 3 tablets?? Serious GAS problem there!
@@paulneedham9885 I can't deny it.
Hi im considering to buy y700 but waiting for the 2023 version to come out.what would you say the cons for the y700 that you have experienced so far compared to the others?
@@maharah93 The typical overly customized Chinese ROM issues. Over aggressive battery saving, background data restrictions, you have to enable a setting to allow Google Play to work. Just weird stuff that should not be in Android and really provides no value. Also, for some reason I can't play Wild Rift anymore. Works fine on my Xiaoxin Pad Pro 2021 which seems to have the same OS.
They probably were originally planning on adding a sim tray but backed out at the last second due to having to cut costs
I wish companies made it more normal to use external storage like a SD card
Still running strong on Mii pad 5. Great review.
Mi Pad 5 is still great!
Unfortunately, the old pen is not compatible to Pad 6 and Pad 6 Pro, so you need to buy the new one. Xiaomi channeling its inner Apple on that one. ;-)
Are these considered reliable? I'm in the USA and it's hard to trust other brands for tablets not named Samsung or Apple. Do you trust the quality?
@@StopLyingBro There are global versions so you should not have any problems.
Hello my friend, I am one of your Arab followers and I am from Iraq 🇮🇶, but how much is this device and when will it be available in the Middle East? With all due respect and appreciation to you I hope you will respond to my comment ❤😊🎉🎉
Good specs but frame looks bit thick for "pro"device in my opinion. I'm still in love with my first generation Huawei Matepad Pro. If I need a new tablet I would probably prefer an oled screen. Thanks for the review Chris.
The Matepad Pro's are awesome tablets, I have my Matepad 11 still works great and really nice type cover keyboard. 6.5mm isn't bad Vs 5.5mm 1mm doesn't make too much of a difference.
Wow this surprised me, was expecting the rom performance to be much worse. It seems this really will be the best reasonably priced gaming pad out there given the fact that unless you are willing to pay crazy Samsung prices there is nothing else with a Snapdragon Gen 1 available. Would love to see how this compares to the Oneplus pad / Oppo Pad 2 / Vivo pad 2. Will you be reviewing any of those? I love the aspect ratio and look of those new BBK pads but they won't be able to compete on performance with Dimensity 9000. I think the vivo is also the only one with video out over USB 3.2 as well. I do wonder though what we can expect in terms of android updates as a lot of these Chinese manufacturer pads tend to get neglected, my mipad 4 didn't get a single update.
Mi Pad 4 had terrible updates and yes I also expected to see some performance issues with the rom but nope it runs so well! Not sure if I will review the OnePlus Pad has they said there are no review units. If I buy one it's delivered in June. Far too late by then no interest or views.
@@Techtablets Yeah hopefully nowadays xiaomi is a little better with tablet updates. The OP pad seems to have gained some pretty positive reviews already. I think giztop and ali are both selling the vivo pad 2 and oppo pad 2 currently.
If I buy one it will be the Vivo Pad 2 less coverage.
@@Techtablets Sweet, that would be great, no English reviews out yet, love to see that.
I bought Vivo Pad 2 with its pencil 2 and been using it 1week now. It is 80$ cheaper than Oneplus and Oppo pad 2 and with USB 3.2 while Oneplus and Oppo offer only 2.0 version. I hope you can review it soon Chris.
Another honest tablet review. BTW, I seriously think companies should invest more on putting a dedicated 'Reading mode' on tablets like these, which will not strain the eyes. Focusing on camera tech in a tablet of this size doesn't seem all that necessary.
Thanks Chris, great informative video as usual! Do you think it is worth paying the extra $ for the pro version over the standard?
*Now, there's a new candidate for testing GPU performance: Honkai: Star Rail*
It's insane that the GPU of my 8+G1 is already maxing out in their latest map 😐
Thanks I'll take a look.
Been following you since redmi note 3 pro days, ive been growing fond of this channel
Thanks for the support it means a lot!
Hi Chris, again a great review, thanks!
@Techtablets A question: I want to purchase a future proof tablet mostly for remote work with zoom. Would you, in terms of selfie video & mics, rather recommend this Xiaomi 6 Pro, or the Xiaoxin Pad Pro which you also highly recommended? 💙
I am thinking the same, i was gonna buy the Xiaoxin Pad Pro but now i can't decide. @Techtablets give us a help :)
One of the few legit review channels on youtube.
I hope xiaomi consider to bring back 8 inch tablet with respectable spec, to compete with ipad mini.
We small tablet power users seem to be too small a niche for manufacturers
Would be great to see an 8-inch version.
Best size for gaming but not many are aware of it, especially when many (of the few existing) 7-9" tablets have underwhelming performance for gaming.. 🥴🫣
Many thanks for this review. I am thinking about the 512 GB version which is available in Vietnam where I live. I bought their flagship phone 12S Ultra last year and use it exclusively for photography which I am quite pleased with…
I got it yesterday after 13 days of waiting guys it's a true masterpiece a beast a living legend 🔥🔥🔥🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤❤🔥❤❤😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Nice enjoy the tablet!
@@Techtablets 🥰🙏🙏🙏
I bought it 2 days ago can't wait to get it but it still saying processing on my status hope it comes I live in Champaign IL
Watching it on my xiaomi Pad 6 !!
how is it for taking notes.. does it support pencil?
Chris, I just love your in-depth reviews. I bought an Alldocube i40Pro tablet based on your review including a Teclast T7 laptop all on your reviews. I now need both in one and would enjoy a review on a Chinese tablet to take over both units for me. Maybe Lenovo tab p12 or Xiaomi pad 6.
Great to hear that!
Great review, I like this tablet maybe it will be available globally. I already have the the pad 5 and it still perform very well. Battery life is excellent. The camera is actually decent for a tablet but no fingerprint senzor. But I am not going to upgrade with this one. I don't know if there is a big difference.
I probably will launch globally
Great video
Have you been able to upload to HyperOs?
Or at least ROM change?
Nice review. Thanks. Interesting product.
Regarding HDR support in Netflix: I had the same issue with my Poco F3 I think.
In my case, I went to the apps menu in the settings, flushed the cache and deleted the storage, maybe also restarted the phone (can't recall) and then opened Netflix again.
Obviously your user profile and login info will be reset to default, so you'll have to log in again, but when you do, you should have HDR if it's the same issue I had.
....flushed the cache *of the Netflix app* I mean, obviously. 😁
Hi, thanks for the tip. I did try that as it was a method to sometimes get from L3 SD to L1 FHD. But still no HDR, I think it must be Netflix isn't reading the widevine correctly or doesn't want to enable HDR10 and Dolby vision support? Hopefully this will change as I've been enjoying Netflix on it some much due to the size and weight. (Coming from my huge S8 Ultra)
warched over 30 videos but no one ever reviewed like you using tablet. u got 1 subscriber
Thanks!
i will subscribe when @Techtablets will answer my question.....@@Techtablets
Kinda annoyed by xiaomi how they make like 100 products a year but only release 20 globally 😑
Yes it's annoying and what's the bet that the Xiaomi Pad 6 is the only global model not this 6 Pro?
@@Techtablets Yep and at that point the SD870 isn't that big of an upgrade compared to the 865 of the Mi pad 5
@@Techtablets absolutely. Good thing Oneplus is also starting to produce their own tablet. Might want to check it out
Well I can drive to Shenzhen and they have like 1000 more Xiaomi products than global
For long term use since not everyone is upgrading every year.. we all actually prefer a great IPS screen instead of an OLED.. we dont have to worry about burn in.. screen flicker.. yellow light siber.. etc..
That's true
I thought you no longer will review Xiaomi Products?
As I said in the video I have the Xiaomi 13 Ultra I bought and Pad 6 Pro. But no more review units coming from them now, anything you see is what I decided to buy that thought was worth covering. None of the constant rebranded Poco and Redmi midrange and low end phones I'm done with all them.
@@Techtablets why? Too similar?
@@joelconolly5574 The problem is with Xiaomi. They're refusing to send review units because his opinions are too honest. He gives both the positives and negatives and Xiaomi don't like that.
@@Techtablets I hope u get more subscribers and likes to earn enough money to buy more Xiaomi unit to give 100% honest reviews. Let them feel the itch in the butt
Well they wont like me reviewing this :) Since it's the Chinese ROM and not global. But yes I will try and buy some of the interesting releases if I can. But no more midrange Poco rubbish or Redmi rubbish unless it really is something special again for the price.
Ordered mine with the pencil and keyboard. Thanks for the review.
Will there be Google Play?
Great video as always! And nothing from Xiaomi bringing a desktop mode in MIUI. Google needs to do this soon so that everyone can enjoy apps with advanced functions, work mode and games.
Desktop mode would be great if they had their own POC mode like Lenovo and Huawei do with their tablets.
But they had desktop mode in MIUI with pad 5. I don't know why did they disabled it with pad 6.
Hi! Coming from a Huawei matepad t10s user. What are much more better? Xiaomi pad5 or xiaomi pad 6 pro? Because I want to find an amazing tablet for schoolwork, gaming, and videocalls. Unfortunately Huawei Matepad t10s lacks alot of features when I first got it in my birthday, not that I'm dissappointed but just want better specs for a budget price.
As the owner of the Xiaomi Pad 5, I think, that there is absolutely no reason to buy the Xiaomi Pad 6/Pro. In my opinion, the only obvious difference is the more powerful processor.
SD 860 is still great. If you do not play heavy games, then this processor is enough for all tasks, including browsing, reading, watching videos, etc.
The rest of the changes are minor. I don't need a USB 3.2 with a VideoOut.
However, I would buy this tablet if it had an AMOLED screen. But for now I'll stay on the Xiaomi Pad 5.
Although I will probably buy a Galaxy Tab S9 (S9+) as soon as it will be available. I want to own a tablet with an AMOLED screen again.
And, yes. 3:20 - it's the place to charge the stylus.
Will you compare this tablet with the new tablets from BBK? On paper, Xiaomi looks preferable. But how will it be in reality? It would be interesting.
Thanks for this video!
Yes no huge reason to upgrade unless you really need the extra power. Good for gamers this model i fine. As for the BBK tablets I've asked OnePlus and no review.units. not sure I'll buy them maybe. But shipping is in June by then there interest is gone.
That giztop link is interesting. I love the China tech; but I wish I could install a privacy OS like grapheneOS on these devices. Thanks for the vids!
What shocked me was their postage time. Only 3 days from China to Spain and in my hands.
@@Techtabletsdid you actually get it in 3 hours?
4:36 We need more tablets with AMOLED screens. Today I feel like I'm stuck with Samsung as my only option. I hate OneUI 💀 but I use it because the high quality screen is my priority.
120hz AMOLED wpiod have been perfect in this.
Can you recommend a good tablet for college students? Other than Samsung and iPad
Cool
They finally listen to your demand Chris, I'm talking about USB 3.2. Mi pad 13 with a good camera, video, sound quality and battery life. Xiaomi should acknowledge you are the one of most honest TH-camrs with 💯 in your reviews.
They wouldn't acknowledge anything or I've been reviewing their tech since the mi 2s. But yes great they listen to the feedback sometimes.
This will kill the iPad Pro m2 If it is released globally
It should do well.
You just said "Goodbye Xiaomi" in your last clip. However, I appreciate you still doing its clip haha...
As i mentioned in the video I have this tablet and the Xiaomi 13 Ultra and then I'll see if I buy anything else form them. Maybe the Xiaomi 14 Pro at the end of the year or Mix Fold 3.
2 words: Samsung dex
Yes much better DeX! I use it a lot with my S8 Ultra.
I use it all the time. Dex is one of the best feature of Samsung devices!
@@Techtablets yeah it is, but with ar glasses on the horizon tablets are gonna become a waste of money soon I just need a Samsung phone with a headphone jack
guess I'll stick with a Galaxy s10
Since they want to keep us in the dark they are avoiding you It's kinda sad but we'll continue to support you
first
Ok
Im waiting for the global version! Thanks for the review mate
I am from India 🇮🇳,
Can i buy it ?
If yeshow ???
FINALLY!!! USB 3.2, honestly, this alone make the tablet worth buying 100%
Yes it does!!!! and finalllllllyyyy!
Thankss for the great review! Are you also going to review the vivo pad 2 what seems like a good offer for the price in combination with the specs?
My Amazon fire 10 is going onto its 4th year and battery isn’t great anymore. I think I’ll wait for a pad 7 to come out IF my Amazon fire doesn’t die earlier but will definitely go with Xiaomi for my next tablet for sure.
Great review as always!
The Xiaomi Pad 7 this year should be just as good if not better.
No MicroSD on a tablet is dead on arrival. How do you consume your content when you're out and don't have wifi (airplane). Overpaying for internal storage is a scam when there's so much space to add a microsd slot.
It really does need that MicroSD slot. My 128GB base model here of the Pro will be out of storage soon if I download a few more games.
your Xiaomi reviews are very truthful and non bias and yet Xiaomi Marketing Team is still butthurt with facts like 1080p front camera on 13 Ultra. Xiaomi better get things together with you.
Not sure but they have messed about with me since the 10T Pro. And this isn't the first time they delayed or pulled review units. I'll see what happens but after my video from yesterday that's the end of it I would think.
you are the only youtuber that i find very good at reviewing xiaomi products
Thanks a lot for the great, fair & trusted review as usual.
Do you plan to review Oneplus pad & compare with Xiaomi's pro pad?
What is the downside of using Chinese rom then?
Another brilliant review.
Sometimes I read e books on black mode at night - does the screen get really dark when reading inverted e books?
Not sure if I should really just wait for an OLED/AMOLED screen!
No as dark as OLED or AMOLED of course, but it's not and for IPS.
The title fits perfect , it truly is much better than expected. Makes me wonder if I should buy Xiaomi devices that are using the Chinese Rom instead of the global one. If this gets a global release, then it's going to replace my 2020 Huawei Mate Pad Pro. BTW Chris, what smart watches do you recommend for android? I'm not a person who does sports or get out too much sadly. I was looking at Garmin Fenyx 6 Pro or 7 Pro. I'm sick of Samsungs 1 day battery life and very, very slow charging speeds. What are you using? Thank you for the video.
Title does suit as it was a pleasant surprise I thought it might have bad throttling and thermals but not at all. As for the watches I use myself the Huawei Watch 3 GT Pro and it's fantastic up to 10 days battery life. It just goes so long. I hate the 1-2 day battery life watches.
@TechTablets me too. It's totally useless. To be honest, I'm not a fan of Huawei Watches at all. They don't work too well with Samsung phones. Maybe the newer ones do, I stopped buying them since I last used GT2. I've heard that Garmin is very good. But I've never used any. I'm surprised at how good the tablet is. A bit disappointing with the screen
as a person who likes to mess with my devices, you can do a lot of workarounds in chinese ROM to have for example multi language support and nearby share. It becomes the same experience as the global ROM but with 5x its smoothness (currently doing it with my pad 5 and it's game changer)
The non pro version 8 GB + 256 GB gonna release on June 21st in India for 315$ USD. Will most likely buy it for my mum!
15:59 Its perfect for your hand Chris. Do you think this can be use as a stream tablet? Like plugin on streamlabs or OBS and stream in via TH-cam or FB? I hope Xiaomi will do this to all of their products having 3.0 spec USB
Yes I hope Xiaomi will go forward and give all mid and high end devices USB 3.2 with video out now. As for streaming and OBS via TH-cam I think it will as it has the power and good thermals. Throttling is almost not there at all which shocked me.
Xiaomi marketing guy: Chris, we want you to review our products again. Thank you for the nice tablet review!
Moments later...
Chris: This Xiaomi product is poor quality.
Xiaomi marketing guy: You are out man! Don't review our products ever again!
Sounds about right 🤣
A flagship snapdragon processor, with 8gb of RAM and 128gb rom for $429? This is a fantastic price/ performance proposition. We need it in the US!!!
Just ordered this one. Really like the double GPU power on it compared to the normal 6. Means my games use half of the power while running on the same FPS.
How's it going
Once again just an overall excellent and honest review. Thanks.
Great review here, but long-term reviews would probably also gain some fans. Keep up the good work.
So genuine question here.
Why get this over an iPad?
To me an iPad juts seems like the obvious choice.
Can someone explain this to me/
Genuine answer: Because some people like Android over iPadOS. :D
I hate apple would never consider buying any of their products..
Much more control over the software and value for money. This is cheaper than 4 year old “certified refurbished” iPads
Hands down better then Samsung Tab S8 I think I'm get this tablet looks really good
I bought it 3days ago can't wait to get it!!!
Does this not put a 'lump in your throat' after Xiaomi ghosting you, (*after your previous vid)? 🤔
I get you, (and subscribe to you), and LOVE what you do.
It's a shame Xiaomi did that to you, especially as you always hold them in quite high regard!? 😐
Anyway, keep up the good work mate, from Mike here, in MANCHESTER, ENGLAND! 👍👍🤘
Will get mine tomorrow. Battery runtime and charging speed is important to me so I bought the Pro. Would have liked a cardslot on that one - at least transfer speeds will be good - other than that on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (Exynos model) which has a cardslot, though. Fortunately, prices for higher configs are not over the top, so the Pro with 256 GB flash (my model) does not cost you an arm and a leg. Will be interested in seeing battery runtime at 90 Hz which would be enough for me. For around 500 bucks not a shabby tablet with all its features. It's insane how much other manufacturers charge for higher end hardware!
Xiaomi's update policy for that model hopefully will not be too bad. Would have been great if it came with the pen. Maybe I can get one later at a cheap price. ;-)
I was considering buying one too, but i don't how the Chinese ROM will affect it.
What's your reason for not waiting for the global? Did you think about all the downsides?
How long did it take for you to get it
@@The_Supreme_Savage It took 12 days for the package to arrive which is quite fast.
@@luxlivatthana158 There is still no global version. I can live with the UI being in English. The on-screen keyboard is in German which is good enough for me. Getting the tablet ready took me at least 1 hour. Great tablet! Fortunately, there are no other downsides (yet).
@@linuxtuxfriend9155 Okay, I just bought me one 3 days ago can't wait to get it I'm upgrading from Samsung Tab A 8.0"
Problem with Xiaomi is there miui which gets laggy overtime and has lot of bugs slow updates there only USP is giving good hardware at low price than flagship device competition but If I will have to choose between this pro and tab s8+ I will without a doubt will go for samsung tab s8+ there timely updates and one UI for tablet has way more function and is stable. Xiaomi's Miui is just streched version of mobile for table
For sure if you want the best software for Android tablets. OneUI it is. I use a S8 Ultra and it's so good, updates like big ones are slow but we get them. MIUI is sure to slow down as it does and sometimes new patches introduce bugs.
Good on ya mate for being objective and still reviewing their products while not holding back in it even though they removed you from their preferred reviewer list.
Doesn't stop me from still buying the odd Xiaomi tablet or phone. But no more Redmi, Poco etc they would send me. Not buying that stuff.
Sir please tell me
how can I buy it in India😊😊
??
Please do review the Xiaomi/Redmi laptops coming up soon, as noone english speaking is reviewing them.
Which models? I really stopped buy those Xiaomi laptops because I lost a lot of money covering them, inflated prices from retailers on Aliexpress, import charges and then poor resale. Every one I lost 300-400 euros after taxes. And Xiaomi never wanted to end them to me.
@@Techtablets I liked your RedmiBook 15 Pro review last year, but you unfortunately did not cover the XiaomiBook Pro 14/16, and there are no english reviews of it on TH-cam, even though I believe that it's a great machine. Maybe TradingShenzhen could provide you with a review unit?
nice review btw the long wait is over finally they have added hdmi out over usb c in xiaomi pad 6 pro because i dont need to use annoying and hassle displaylink adapter anymore in xiaomi pad 6 pro all you need is usb c hub with hdmi and pd fast charging unlike before in xiaomi pad 5 you need to have a displaylink adapter and usb c hub in order to have a hdmi out the displaylink pressenter app sometimes is working and sometimes is not working
Thnx,chris for the grt review ❤❤
Hi there,
Your content has always been helpful in terms of understanding the specs of a device especially the ones that aren't released in US market. I'm interested in getting the Xiami pad 6 pro but I'm a little bit concerned since there is not a global ROM.
How's your experience using the Chinese ROM outside of China?
Thank you!
great review, as always. pretty detailed and focused on things we actually need to know.
are you considering testing Oneplus tab? i would really like a comparisson between the 2 best android tablets
I'm not sure OnePlus told me no review units. If I buy one the deliver is in June I saw so by then the interest is gone and no views. Unless I import it from china not sure.
@@Techtablets oh ok, that's a bummer. I would make an interesting video for sure, they are pretty similar in a lot of things but each has its own pros. And also, testing their native pens, for me it's a must as it's my most used input method 😅 but I get it that business wise, doesn't make a lot of sense
The cut on the top that you said was for sim card, its for the wirlees pencil charching, the pencil rest on the top on the tablet and the cut on the metal allows the charge
Sorry yes the wireless dock pad for the pen.
Need a tablet recommendation for pdf book viewing.
From a student with 2-3 of pdfs needed to be loaded side by side 🤧
Its abt screen size and aspect ratio
Oneplus pad 11.6 in (7:5)
Xiaomi pad 6s pro 12.4 in (3:2)
Ipad 11in , pro 12.9 in (4:3)
Samsung tab plus 12.4 in or ultra 14.6 in (16:10)
If u got money just go ipad regular or pro for snappier isntant pdf loading (even heavy size pdfs are loaded instant, no waiting to load pdf pages)
Nice Review, which is better this or Lenovo p11 pro gen 2?
Hmmm, I don't really see why anyone would go for these when the Mi Pad 5 itself is already available with half its original price for some decent used units, unless they need the video out...
Video out and much better performance (Mostly gamers) But yes the Pad 5 is still great and cheaper.
Я купил себе для книг и серфинг в интернете, pad 4, для небольших нагрузок, он вполне адекватный. Xiaomi forever
We need your honest reviews on iPhones and Samsungs too. You need to get deep down on their products.
Im genuinely impressed how xiaomi grabs its bad things to improve them to a better state, im very happy :DDD
Yeah
Can u compare the reflections on the screen vs reflections on iPad Air or pro?
MIUI14 fixed so many issues.
Great video m8
Hey @TechTablets, any chance you'll be reviewing the Vivo Pad 2 anytime soon? I'm interested, but at the moment there's not a lot info about it out there
No plans to buy it.
