Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 lineup: Everything we know so far

It’s no brainer that Apple’s iPad lineup has overshadowed its Android counterpart. Android tablets have become quite rare with only a handful of manufacturers launching them on a regular basis. Samsung, Honor, and Huawei are among the few brands that are still in the Android tablet market.

Talking about Xiaomi, they have launched tablets in the past under the We Pad series. The last tablet from the company was the Mi Pad 4 which came back in 2018. Now, almost three years later, Xiaomi is prepping to add to the series with the Mi Pad 5 lineup.

Evidence in the source code

The upcoming tablets have been referred to as “nabu”, “enuma” and “elish” in multiple MIUI 12.5 system apps, reports XDA Developers. There is also an “isPad” method (function) in this source code allowing the apps to detect these tablets from other MIUI devices and thus run accordingly.

Leaked specs

According to the reports, Eon onea and Elish are different variants of the same tablet. They have model names that end in K81 and K81A, respectively. The model number of Nabu, on the other hand, ends in K82. Also, only Enuma is said to support mobile connectivity while the other two could be Wi-Fi-only devices.

This means Xiaomi is targeting the premium market segment and will go against Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S-series. Enuma and Elish will be powered by either Snapdragon 865, 865+, or 870. Nabu, on the other hand, will be powered by one of the following SoCs: Snapdragon 855, 855+, or 860.
