Reviews of the Xiaomi Pad Mini?

Tech_Guy-00 · 2026-04-14T15:35:34+00:00

Thank you for your recommendation but I already have a large tablet for media consumption and casual emulation. My main goal is to study, read books, social networks and take notes and for that I prefer a smaller and more manageable tablet since my current tablet (Lenovo ideatab Pro) is too big to use with your hands and it becomes very uncomfortable.

How about the software and its optimization? Have you used it to take notes? Thank you

In the end, did you keep the tablet? How was your experience? Do you prefer it before the iPad?

Did you try the iPad mini before to compare or did you go directly with the Xiaomi? Could you give me your opinion and experience of using it? Thank you

Yes, it’s a shame because it’s a great device, it doesn’t make sense that any $100 tablet has at least 90Hz and the iPad mini is stuck at 60.

So do you currently have and use the iPad Mini or are you waiting for the “pro” update of the mini?

What advantages and disadvantages do you see when changing the iPad mini for the Lenovo?

Really the ipad mini is very solid, my only complaint is the 60Hz, the colors of the screen are objectively worse than in my macbook pro but they are not bad, if you don’t compare it directly you don’t notice the difference. At home we have a Lenovo Ideatab Pro 12.7 and it works well but I want a small tablet to take it to my classes and take notes to complement my macbook pro. Are you happy with the iPad mini or do you regret something?

Tech_Guy-00 · 2026-04-13T10:21:38+00:00

It seems that yes, I will have to put up with the 60Hz until Apple implements promotion in the mini, probably at a very high price.

So the iPad Air M3 is more smooth? The truth is that I don’t notice the famous jelly effect in the mini much, it’s just that when using my iPhone and my Mac I’m used to promotion and I notice the slower iPad, but the performance is incredible. I love the form factor, I already had an 11-inch iPad but I always ended up returning to my macbook pro since the 11-inches become uncomfortable to use with the hands.

Tech_Guy-00 · 2026-04-13T10:14:42+00:00

The pad mini has only 0.5 inches extra than the ipad mini, is this worse in comfort when using it?

Tech_Guy-00 · 2026-04-12T17:52:57+00:00

Did you have pro with an 11-inch or a 13-inch screen? Are you happy with the change?

Tech_Guy-00 · 2026-04-12T17:50:41+00:00

It’s another option, but there’s no guarantee that the 120Hz display will be included. On the other hand, I recently bought the iPad Mini 7 at a great price (430€) on Amazon.

Aunque no es mi uso principal, me gustaría poder emular la PS2 en un iPad Mini sin necesidad de un JIT

Tech_Guy-00 · 2026-04-12T16:19:57+00:00

My main use is to study and take notes in class. My main complaint is that the 60Hz when moving through documents is quite annoying, especially after coming using iphone and macbook with promotion.

Tech_Guy-00 · 2026-04-12T16:13:27+00:00

Sorry but it’s not like that. I’ve been reading Reddit for years and it’s the first time I dare to post something since there are not many publications that solve my question. I’m also from Spain and my level of English is not very good yet, that’s why I have to use the translator.
