The lack of storage expansion is the other.

So, 10 Jun 2024Its a mix of video and other usecases. 16:10 doesnt mean &#... moreYes people tend to forget that aspect ratio plays a huge part in display surface area and screen real estate. to me, 3:2 is the perfect ratio and that's why Microsoft has stuck with it in its Surface line for so long. I have a 13.5in Surface Book 2 and the screen is amazing for productivity, creative design work, web browsing, and media consumption. lots of games in my Steam library also take advantage of 3:2 as well.

Have been a Xiaomi User and Fan for almost a decade and have bought 10 Mi devices in my family.
However, Xiaomi's software support is exceedingly poor. Mi Pad 5 has not been updated to Android 14. This shoddy software support is something you can justify on lower priced Redmi devices, but on "premium" tablets in the present era is unacceptable.
Potential buyers be warned. Apple, Samsung and even, Google are much better in this regard and the slight premium over the increasingly expensive Xiaomi devices is well justified and it gives you years more of usage on your premium devices.

SigmaR, 10 Jun 2024And an amoled display. I wouldn't have any doubt, the ... moreAmoled it is not essencial - at least for me - if IPS is good. This IPS is quite good and with 700-900 nits it beats the S9+ in brightness.
From notebookcheck test since GSM arena did not review S9+
Xiaomi:
Brightness middle
867 nits
Brightness
810 nits
Brightness Distribution
87%
For Samsung S9+ the numbers are 574 nits, 551 nits, 89%

Anonymous, 09 Jun 2024This one isn't 16:10 either though, it's 3:2. Als... moreIts a mix of video and other usecases. 16:10 doesnt mean 'primary goal video', its just a ratio good for a lot of stuff. Im giving some info to the guy who said to 'just get a large phone'. 3:2 is even more area than 16:10. i say 16:10 cus thats what android tablets of 7 to 9 usually come in. He and the guy who wanted the 8 inch can decide for himself.
Atleast read the comment i replied to.

For most people considering tablet as a working device the only laptop alternative is macbook air atm, laptops with snapdragon x are a nice addition if you can wait a little bit.

Anonymous, 07 Jun 20248"? You might as well just get a big phone for that...Other than a foldable nothing comes to 8 inch 16:10 screen area. Phones are 19.5:9 to 21:9, a 7 inch phone is way smaller area than the 8 inch tablet. And foldables are much smaller for video area.

It has HyperOS- no thanks. Forget about customization, widgets cannot be resized and they stay small on screen.

I ordered it 2 weeks ago, it's pretty incredible, I can switch between productivity and entertament in a blink of eyes, it is doing everything you need to do on a laptop since Microsoft 365 improved enough to work correctly now on phone and tablet. The battery life is huge and the 120W charger full it in 40 minutes. the Keyboad and stylus make it way more easy to use compared to an Ipad pro or the Samsung S9 while costing way less money. also the connectivity between it and my Xiaomi 13T Pro is the cherry on the top if the Sunday.

For the reasonins that there is no headphone jack or extra io on a device this large, i'm going to just stick to the lower specced Lenovo Y700 or Redmi Pad Pro / Poco Pad
