Over the years, Xiaomi has expanded its presence in the Indian market offering smartphones, smart TVs, smart wearables, and smart home solutions. The brand however has not tried to capitalize on the growing tablet market since its first tablet launch in the country back in June 2014.

But that is about to change as the brand has teased a new tablet launch which will take place on April 1 at 12 PM IST.

The Xiaomi India head Manu Kumar Jain also took to Twitter to announce the same stating “Mi Fans, weโ€™re gearing up to make your wish come true. Always Believe in the power of making dreams come true.”

The brand has also set up a dedicatedย microsite on the Xiaomi India website which has a count down going till April 1st at 12 PM IST. It remains to be seen if this countdown will reveal a launch timeline, more details about the device, or will turn out to be an April fools joke.

While the tablet device could be a brand new model, there are chances it could be theย recently launched Mi Pad 5.
