Xiaomi Pad 8 Review Highlights Performance, Design, and Price Increase

The Xiaomi Pad 8, priced at Rs. 33,999, offers a faster Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chip, slimmer design, larger battery, and improved software compared to its predecessor, the Pad 7. While its premium metal build and portable design suit everyday use, some users find the price increase significant. The included Xiaomi Focus Keyboard features a backlit hinge beneficial for unstable surfaces, though typing experience receives mixed feedback. Android tablet app compatibility remains a general limitation noted by reviewers.
