Thanks to a detailed teardown by WekiHome, we’re getting a close look at what Xiaomi’s compact tablet brings to the table. Slim, lightweight, and loaded with high-end hardware, the REDMI K Pad looks like a serious contender in the mini tablet space.
Disassembled ahead of release, the K Pad was shown to pack plenty of premium features in a tidy footprint. It features an 8.8-inch IPS LCD with a sharp 3,008 x 1,880 resolution, 165Hz refresh rate, Dolby Vision support, and a peak brightness of 610 nits in high-brightness mode. The tablet weighs just 336 grams and is only 6.46mm thick, housed in a sandblasted metal unibody for a sleek, sturdy feel.
Under the hood is MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400+ chipset, paired with LPDDR5X RAM and fast UFS 4.1 storage. For cooling, Xiaomi has equipped the tablet with a large 12,050mm² aluminum-alloy vapor chamber—a lighter alternative to copper—alongside a metal midframe to help spread and dissipate heat. The tablet also shines in gaming tests against Legion Y700 (4th Gen), RedMagic Gaming Tablet 3 Pro.
Inside the K Pad, foam padding helps protect key components from damage in case of drops, while the centrally located motherboard aids in balanced heat distribution. On the audio front, the K Pad includes dual Dolby Atmos speakers, and power is handled by a two-cell 7,500mAh battery (3,505mAh + 3,995mAh), supporting 55W fast charging. Xiaomi includes a 67W charger in the box, and a full charge reportedly takes about 61 minutes. The tablet also supports bypass charging, which is great for extended gaming sessions.
Additional hardware includes a USB-C port with USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps) and DisplayPort support, though there’s no fingerprint scanner. For imaging, you get a 13MP rear camera (OmniVision OV13B) and an 8MP front-facing sensor (OV08F).
Overall, WekiHome’s teardown highlights a tablet designed with performance and portability in mind.
