              Not including Micro SD support/expandable memory in a media device is a real deal killer

                  Samsung s6 lite has Dex

                    Xiaomi did it (again)...
                    For €300 it's a great proposition.If you're after affordable Android tablet with great specs...look no further,I guess.👍

                      Anyone have any sites that are doing the preorder and shipping to the United States? I bought my mother one from GizTop last month but would like to take advantage of the early bird discount to get one for my gf. Goboo has a 299€ preorder but they don't ship to the states.

                        zodiacfml, 17 Sep 2021you wasted my time on the Lenovo Pad Pro consideration. The... moreXiaomi Pad 5 has no direct competitor in Lenovo line-up within the same generation and same pricepoint. Lenovo's current 2021 line-up are the:

                        Lenovo Pad Plus (2021) around 280USD and Lenovo Pad Pro (2021) around 436USD here in SEA.

                        Pricewise, Xiaomi Pad 5 is much more comparable to the Pad Pro 2021.

                        Here's a comparison of the 3:
                        https://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=10925&idPhone2=10927&idPhone3=11042

                        What hasn't been shown in the comparison was that all the 2021 Lenovo variants have video-out support via type-c enabling users to use any monitor/TV you wanted as external display and you're not just confined with smart TVs via wireless casting (higher latency compared to wired) with the Xiaomi Pads.

                          Another 16:10. Unusable in vertical orientation. Is it really that difficult to design 4:3 tablet with UFS memory, decent CPU and Windows on it?

                            GG, 17 Sep 2021compare the specs..! if you just want a large functional ta... morebecause this mi pad 5 released before ipad 10 and realme pad, if xiaomi released after these two maybe xiaomi will follow their spec.

                              Lenovo Pad pro can be had for as low as €400 through giztop

                                Anonymous, 17 Sep 2021Yeah and the 350 Euro they keep mentioning wont be correct ... moreAre we? One of retailers in Croatia is giving it for 260 euros if you preorder.

                                  Anonymous, 17 Sep 2021No, phones with LCD + 10bit have been around years. I only know https://www.gsmscore.com/model-finder/display-colors/1B-Colors/ to find 10bit phones but it listed only mi 11. Where to find those models?

                                    I think it's because the Omnivision sensor. Omnivision sensor is usually good, even better than Samsung ones. Sadly they're pretty underated. I prefer Omnivision any day than Samsung.

                                      better go for the pro, sd 870

                                        Daany, 17 Sep 2021Of all things, the removal of 3.5 audio jack from a device ... morePointless for the consumer, but it means big bucks for the organization as you'd buy their wireless headphones.
