Xiaomi has officially unveiled the highly anticipated Redmi Pad 2 Series, featuring two impressive variants designed to revolutionize affordable tablet computing. The new lineup includes the standard Redmi Pad 2 and its 4G-enabled counterpart, both powered by HyperOS 2 and equipped with premium entertainment features previously reserved for flagship devices. Starting at just $199 USD for the base model, these tablets deliver exceptional value with their 11-inch 2.5K displays, quad-speaker Dolby Atmos audio systems, and massive 9000mAh batteries that ensure all-day usage without compromise.
Stunning Visual Experience
The Redmi Pad 2 Series features an expansive 11-inch display with 2.5K resolution (2560 x 1600) and 274 ppi pixel density. The 90Hz AdaptiveSync refresh rate ensures smooth scrolling and responsive touch interactions, while the 500 nits typical brightness extends to 600 nits in outdoor mode for excellent visibility in any lighting condition.
Enhanced eye protection comes through multiple certifications including TÜV Rheinland Low Blue Light, Flicker Free, and Circadian Friendly technologies. The DC dimming feature further reduces eye strain during extended viewing sessions, making these tablets perfect for reading, streaming, and productivity tasks.
Powerful Audio and Performance
Both tablets incorporate a sophisticated quad-speaker setup enhanced with Dolby Atmos and Hi-Res Audio support. This premium audio configuration delivers immersive sound quality that rivals dedicated entertainment devices, whether users are watching movies, listening to music, or gaming.
The MediaTek Helio G100-Ultra processor powers both variants, built on a 6nm manufacturing process with ARM Cortex-A76 and A55 CPU cores. Available in three configurations:
- 4GB RAM + 128GB storage
- 6GB RAM + 128GB storage
- 8GB RAM + 256GB storage
Storage expansion up to 2TB via microSD cards provides ample space for apps, media, and documents.

Running on Xiaomi’s latest HyperOS 2 operating system, the Redmi Pad 2 Series offers seamless integration with other Xiaomi devices. Key interconnectivity features include Call sync for answering phone calls directly on the tablet, Network sync for instant hotspot access, and Shared clipboard functionality for effortless content transfer between devices.
