Redmi Pad is confirmed to launch in India. The Xiaomi sub-brand has announced that it will launch its first-ever tablet on October 4th at 12 noon. The announcement tweet does not reveal much info about the upcoming offering apart from giving us a look at the back panel and colour option of the device. The Chinese brand re-entered the tablet market in India earlier this year with the launch of the Xiaomi Pad 5.

Xiaomi is also conducting a global launch event on October 4th where it is expected to unveil the Xiaomi 12T series, Redmi Pad, and Redmi Buds 4 Pro. The India launch of the Redmi Pad is earlier than its global counterpart.

The screen is surrounded by symmetrical bezels on all four sides and there is a rectangular camera module on the back panel. Dimension-wise, the tablet is said to measure 7mm thick and weighs 445 grams.ย
