The Xiaomi Redmi Pad has cleared its certification via UAE’s TDRA (Telecommunication and Digital Government Regulatory Authority).

Tipster Abhishek Yadav shared the upcoming Redmi Pad tablet’s certification
The only information confirmed by the TDRA certification website related to the Redmi Pad tablet is the availability of the Wi-Fi variant. Previous leaks suggested the launch of a Wi-Fi+ LTE variant as well. This suggests Xiaomi is bringing both Wi-Fi only and a Wi-Fi+ LTE variant of the Redmi Pad tablet giving the audience a range of options to choose from.
If we go by the previous leaks, the Redmi Pad tablet will be a premium mid-range tablet that will be driven by the MediaTek MT8781 chipset which is an octa-core chipset built on a 6nm fabrication process. Xiaomi could launch this Redmi tablet with up to 4GB RAM and 128GB storage configuration. However, the exact details will be confirmed once the device is announced. It is likely to launch with Android 12 OS topped with a MIUI interface customized for tablets.
The handset is expected to be announced with an LCD screen. That’s a standard panel type smartphone and tablet OEMs are using for affordable and mid-range Android tablets globally. The Redmi Pad tablet’s screen will possibly offer a 2K screen resolution. The exact refresh rate is yet to be confirmed.
The rumor mill hints the Redmi Pad tablet might ship with a single 8MP AI camera at the rear. Xiaomi is rumored to use a 7,800 mAh battery along with 22.5W fast charging technology to keep this tablet’s processor ticking.
