This iPad Rival is a WINNER | POCO Pad X1 Review

Reviewing Xiaomi's POCO Pad X1, an upgraded version of their original budget tablet with similar specs to the Redmi Pad 2. Performance has been boosted for gaming and the battery life is great, but is the 11-inch POCO Pad X1 your best affordable Android tablet option? Well, if you want to stay productive on the go (student perhaps?), this is a strong rival vs the Honor Pad V9 and OnePlus Pad Lite. You've got a Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 on board, which can happily cope with multi-tasking and handle games too. Even Wuthering Waves was playable on the Xiaomi POCO Pad X1 in my testing. Battery life is dependable while the IPS screen is sharp and pumps out natural colours. Of course, this isn't one of the best tablets for movies, with that 3:2 aspect ratio. But films still look and sound great (with Dolby Vision and Atmos support). The Xiaomi POCO Pad X1 runs HyperOS 3, in a slimmed-down, less customisable fashion. It's not as ideal for tablet multi-tasking as ColorOS/OxygenOS but it does the job, with some excellent features including a proper gaming mode. As for the cameras, they're pretty basic but as expected. So that's my review of the Xiaomi POCO Pad X1. Let us know what you think below!
