Xiaomi Pad 6 review: At a glance
- What is it? The Xiaomi Pad 6 is a mid-range Android tablet with plenty of performance on tap for multitasking and heavy gaming. It packs a bright and vivid 11-inch IPS display with quad speakers, making it a great fit for media consumption. The tablet supports Xiaomi’s second-generation Smart Pen and keyboard case, but you’ll have to buy them separately.
- What is the price? The Xiaomi Pad 6 starts at £369 in the UK, €399 in other European regions, and Rs. 26,999 in India. It’s also frequently available from Amazon sellers in the US for around $400.
- Where can you buy it? The Xiaomi Pad 6 is available to purchase via mi.com as well as offline retailers and Amazon in select markets.
- How did we test it? I tested the Xiaomi Pad 6 for two weeks. Xiaomi supplied the review unit.
- Is it worth it? If you need a cheap Android tablet that’s well-designed and plenty powerful, the Xiaomi Pad 6 fits the bill almost perfectly. However, you’ll have to look elsewhere for a strong Android update commitment.

After a half-decade-long hiatus from the tablet market, Xiaomi made an excellent comeback with the Xiaomi Pad 5 in 2021. It delivered heaps of processing power, a fast and beautiful display, and slick software with nifty multitasking features — all at a very competitive price point. The Xiaomi Pad 6 is a much more modest refresh by comparison, but it still manages to improve upon nearly all of its predecessor’s strengths.
