Joining the recently unveiled Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro Max today are two additional models: the Xiaomi Pad 9 and the Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro. These models will be available globally.

While the top-tier Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro Max—featuring the proprietary Xring processor—will remain exclusive to the Chinese market, the newly unveiled Xiaomi Pad 9 and Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro are expected to become available worldwide soon, despite currently being announced only in China.

Both feature LCD displays with a resolution of 3200 x 2136 pixels, a 3:2 aspect ratio, and a 144 Hz refresh rate. The screens offer a 12-bit color palette, HDR10, HDR Vivid, and Dolby Vision certifications, as well as advanced eye-protection features. Styluses and keyboards are available as optional accessories for both models. Both run on Xiaomi HyperOS 4, enhanced with AI and additional utility software, including WPS for Pad and CapCut Pro.

The Xiaomi Pad 9 features an 11.2-inch display with 800 nits of brightness, a Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor, and a 9,720 mAh battery with 45W charging. The tablet is also equipped with 8-megapixel and 13-megapixel cameras. Meanwhile, the Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro comes with a 12.5-inch display offering 1,000 nits of brightness, a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor, and an 11,000 mAh battery supporting 67W charging and 22.5W reverse charging.
