Poco Pad gets certified, will be a rebranded Redmi Pad Pro
Poco is one of Xiaomi's value brands, alongside Redmi, and while we've already seen Redmi tablets, Poco is yet to launch one. That will however change soon, since a Poco tablet has already received its FCC certification, and it was also spotted in the Camera FV-5 database. Thus we know a tiny little bit about it.
The Poco tablet will apparently be called Poco Pad. It will have the model number 2405CPCFBG for global markets, and it will ship running Xiaomi's HyperOS 1.0, presumably on top of Android 14. The Poco Pad supports Wi-Fi 6 and comes with a 33W charging adapter, which implies it supports 33W wired charging.
Now for the funny stuff. The FCC listing confirms that the Poco Pad and the recently unveiled Redmi Pad Pro are identical devices, so this is yet another case of rebranding a Redmi to a Poco. The Camera FV-5 listing confirms that the Poco Pad has an 8 MP rear camera and an 8 MP front-facing camera, just like the Redmi Pad Pro.
The Redmi Pad Pro has a 12.1-inch 1600x2560 120 Hz IPS LCD touchscreen, the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 SoC at the helm, 6/8GB of RAM, 128/256GB of storage, and a 10,000 mAh battery with - you guessed it - 33W wired charging support. So the Poco Pad should have these exact specs too when it launches internationally in the near future.

I use a computer at work, a tablet at home and phone when I'm out and about. A tablet certainly has it's place for me.
