I realize this is a entry level table.
But hasn't GSMArena had it long for a Review?
Thanks

This isn't bad for 130 usd (1999000 idr)
I wished it was like 8 inch or something, but i'm kinda lean more towards the upcoming tab a9, its small, and uses helio g99 which i guess is decent

Looking at the spec it is not so bad actually.
I just need budget tablet to watch videos and browsing so this is probably fine but the problem is the price and 10W charging. The regular Redmi Pad is around 190 euro with 18W charging in my country.

silvermistvio, 07 Sep 2023Please remember that this is a budget tablet. So, you will ... moreYeah, I definitely realize that now, or rather at the time of writing that comment. As I mentioned in the end it's fine for watching content but that's pretty much it. It doesn't have much else going for it.

Daffyt, 31 Aug 2023Disclaimer: 4GB/128GB I already wrote a lengthy comment ... morePlease remember that this is a budget tablet. So, you will only get what you have paid. If you paid low, you'd get low. If you paid high, you'd get high. You can't just expect you can do anything and it can do anything for you without getting hanged ON A BUDGET TABLET. A budget tablet only can do little things compared to high ends. If you hope you can do many things on a budget tablet, then don't buy one. It will just let you down and you will say their products can't do anything, something bad like that. It will just make unnecessary bad reviews. Just go and buy high end tablets in the first place.

fran6325, 29 Aug 2023It is, and a lot worse, G99 is faster than SD685 tooHelio G99 is better than Snapdragon 680 as it (G99) is designed for gaming and multimedia but G99 consumes more power, hence, battery life is not good. But this one uses SD680, so, you'd get longer battery life. As they say, each has its own merits.

Disclaimer: 4GB/128GB
I already wrote a lengthy comment but I have a few more points to add. I mainly bought it for watching YouTube and movies. It's honestly fantastic for that one purpose. The screen is big, speakers are loud and headphone jack is a nice feature to see. Once I realized that there's a lot more a tablet can do, I tried using it for that. So, games, web browsing, drawing and kind of a media center for music when I'm doing chores around the house.
As I mentioned earlier the tablet runs at 90hz in Xiaomi browser, settings, home screen and remaining Xiaomi pre installed apps. You want to browse using your favorite browser at advertised 90hz? Too bad. Want to draw? Nope. Wanna play games? Not gonna happen. I'm sure that it will be resolved at some point in the future but as of today, it is not. Seeing as it is one of their main selling points and it's broken on release, that's not a good look.
Again, as mentioned earlier when you connect it to a Bluetooth speaker (I tried 3 different brands), you can't control the volume from the tablet. Why that is I don't know but it's yet again such a fundamental 'feature' which is either missing or broken.
The last issue is its speed. Or rather, sluggishness. 4 browser tabs? Too much. 3 apps open at once? The tablet will close everything to focus resources on the currently running one. Using 2 apps with split screen also wasn't really an ideal experience.
And yeah. I know this is one of the cheapest tablets there are but my previous experience with Xiaomi phones made me think this was going to be a good purchase despite its sad looking spec sheet. I'm left somewhat disappointed after my nearly 2 weeks with the tablet.
Overall, if watching stuff on it is your goal, go for it with clear conscience. If you wanna do anything else, pay up and get something proper like a Xiaomi pad 5 or 6.

Yuri84, 28 Aug 2023Are you sure you're talking about Xiaomi Redmi Pad SE?... moreYes, I'm sure. GSM arena is obviously wrong in this case. I bought it a while ago but already took it back because it's just bad.

really depends on the price, if this is price at 100 USD then it's kinda okay i guess, but if you have a bit more to chew a redmi pad will be better with better chipset, ufs, and etc.

Lucas, 27 Aug 2023SD680 is weaker than G99 from the Redmi Pad 1 I think It is, and a lot worse, G99 is faster than SD685 too
