Ufs 2.2 holds this back, and is a deal breaker for me.
Should be at least 3.1.
Is a 2.2 chipset really so much cheaper to Warren such performance hit?

"The Poco Pad is identical to the Redmi Pad Pro, which we recently reviewed"
Why do a full review then? Complete waste of time.

Another dumb argument to justify a crippled tablet. The photo above clearly shows a tablet with a qwerty keyboard.
But where is desktop mode? None.
People spend money to get more features, there are many other tablets with more features (GPS, 5G, etc.) for insignificant price different. No need to defend, except if you are one of those elementary schooler. 🤣

In phones it has reached 9W, so I wouldn't be surprised it is going up to 12-15W on tablets. It is the same consumption the 870 had, on a 7nm process from TSMC (7s Gen 2 is 4nm from Samsung). Also HyperOS has poor battery optimization. I'm not surprised at all at the battery results.

No desktop mode
No 5G sim connection
No GPS
No minimum 4 years software support

Maybe it is perfect tablet for elementary schooler, who knows nothing about technology.

Wha... moreYour comment is dumber.
No GPS means Poco pad is a crippled tablet during the use of any transportation or delivery app (uber etc.) , useless on e-commerce app and useless on google maps.
No GPS = no buy.

Also Xiaomi pad 6 has a slighty higher resolution screen.
A 1200mah bigger battery should still give way better battery results on Poco Pad.

For once, I like Xiaomi's idea of launching their Redmi phones/tablets internationally under the Poco branding. Before Poco existed, it wasn't difficult to understand the Redmi market. Since the launch of the Poco brand, it wouldn't make sense to launch two identical products with different brandings in the same market. Now, if I want the Chinese ROM of this tablet, I'd buy the Redmi, in the same way that I'd buy the Redmi K70 if I want to have the Chinese ROM version of Poco F6.

a good productivity tool at it's price.
but missing alot function and features to be super productivity android tool:
no 5G,
no GPS
no 512gb to 2Tb built in storage like iPad Pro
external card slot is optional, but also could provide dual-USB-C like lenovo tablet.
no flagship processor like iPad Pro M4 processor, could use Snapdragon X-Elite to be a killer
no various size like iPad Mini-Pro Max/Samsung Galaxy Tab S series.
