Redmi K Pad: Xiaomi’s Redmi K Pad is splashing big in the world of mini tablets, and due to WekiHome’s teardown, we can now open it up in minute detail. Other than being a high-end-looking thin and light tablet, it has great internal hardware for power users. With a performance-driven design and glamorous looks, it’s dominating the field as a serious challenger for flagship compact tablets.
Premium Display with Smooth Visuals
Redmi K Pad features an 8.8-inch IPS LCD screen with a high resolution of 3,008 x 1,880 pixels. Its 165Hz refresh rate provides it with ultra-smooth gaming and scrolling, and Dolby Vision support provides rich contrast and color accuracy. Its high peak brightness is 610 nits when in high-brightness mode, and it can be used both indoors and outdoors. General build is thin, weighing only 336 grams with a thin 6.46mm profile, sandwiched in sandblasted metal unibody.
Flagship-Level Performance Internals
Internally, the tablet is equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 9400+ processor. It is also paired with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1 storage, which provides flawless multitasking, app opening, and data transfer. Under gaming, it compares well with opponents such as the Legion Y700 (4th Gen) and the RedMagic Gaming Tablet 3 Pro, offering top-notch performance.
Advanced Cooling and Balanced Design
Xiaomi has also made a significant emphasis on heat management. The Redmi K Pad employs a 12,050mm² aluminium-alloy vapor chamber to dissipate heat efficiently with no effect on weight. It has a metal midframe that facilitates heat dissipation evenly, and foam cushioning is offered around the sensitive components to dampen shocks in the event of accidental drops.
Good Audio, Battery, and Charging Configuration
Audio is managed by twin Dolby Atmos-certified speakers, providing immersive audio to content consumption and gaming. The tablet has a 7,500mAh dual-cell battery (3,505mAh + 3,995mAh) with support for fast charging at 55W. Xiaomi bundles a 67W charger that can fully charge the tablet in approximately 61 minutes. K Pad also supports bypass charging, which is great for gaming without heat buildup.
Additional Features and Camera Configuration
When it comes to connectivity, the tablet has a USB-C port with USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps) and DisplayPort support. Without a fingerprint reader, the tablet has a 13MP OmniVision camera at the back and an 8MP front-facing camera. They are good enough for regular photography and video calls.
Final Thoughts: Power Meets Portability
The teardown shows that Xiaomi has been able to find an amazing balance of performance and portability. From a top-end display and industry-leading chipset to thoughtful cooling and fast charging, the Redmi K Pad appears to be a great all-around mini tablet choice for 2025.
