Xiaomi Pad 8 Price In India: Xiaomi has expanded its tablet lineup in India with the launch of its latest flagship device, the Xiaomi Pad 8. The new tablet joins the company’s existing models, including the Xiaomi Pad 6 and the Xiaomi Pad 7 series. The company comes with four years of Android OS updates and six years of security updates.
The company claims that the Pad 8 is “India’s slimmest flagship Android tablet of 2026,” designed to deliver powerful performance in a sleek form factor suitable for users on the move. The tablet runs on HyperOS 3 out of the box and comes with several new features, including updated lock screens, fresh wallpapers, and customizable widgets. It also introduces a new dock that allows users to access more apps easily, along with a workstation mode that enables PC-like browser support for improved productivity.
The Xiaomi Pad 8 features an 11.2-inch display with a 3.2K resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate, offering smooth visuals for everyday use. The screen supports DC dimming and has TUV Rheinland eye protection certification, which helps reduce eye strain during long hours of use. Xiaomi says the display is suitable for activities such as watching videos, playing games, taking notes, and working on documents.
The tablet is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor. This is an upgrade over the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 chipset used in the previous Xiaomi Pad 7. It is backed by a 9,200mAh battery with 45W fast charging support. According to the company, the battery is designed to support long usage for tasks such as media playback, browsing, and gaming. It is also slightly larger than the 8,850mAh battery used in the Xiaomi Pad 7.
