Xiaomi released its first tablet back in 2014, but successive generations of products have obvious flaws. The Tegra K1 of the first generation of Xiaomi tablets and the second generation of AtomX5-Z8500 processors have the problems of high power consumption and high heat, poor compatibility, and the response is not good, and the MT8176 processor on the Xiaomi tablet 3 has not been recognized by the market due to the weak performance of the GPU, so the market performance has been tepid, and there have been more than one news of Xiaomi's internal decision to abandon the tablet product line.
 
However, all this ended with the release of Xiaomi in 2018 Xiaomi Pad 4 series, like previous generations, Mi Pad 4 series still uses Android system, there are a total of 2 models, namely 7.9-inch Mi Pad 4 and 10.1-inch Mi Pad 4 PLUS, both of which focus on high cost performance. Mi Pad 4 can choose WIFI/LTE version, Mi Pad 4 PLUS only LTE version, for now, it is unlikely that there will be no objection to saying that Mi Pad 4 series is the most cost-effective Android tablet.
 
Compared with previous generations of products,Xiaomi Pad 4Series is obviously more balanced,There are no obvious shortcomings,Although there are two models,But it's actually more like a different screen size version of a single model,Except for the difference in screen size and memory、Capacity,The rest of the configuration is almost the same,All use16:10Screen ratio,The resolution is the same1920*1200,Equipped with Snapdragon660Processor,The current mainstream games can basically run。
 
If there is a need for portability, the Xiaomi Pad 4, which is claimed to be able to be held with one hand, is undoubtedly the first choice. Xiaomi Pad 4The length of the body is almost the same as that of iPad mini4,But it is narrower,Divided into3 32GB basic version and4 64GB high-configuration version,The price of the basic version has dropped to1099element,It does not support4G,The high-configuration version has WIFI version and LTE version to choose from。
 
3GB running memory is still relatively tight for Android, so it is more recommended to 4 64GB of high-configuration version, in the high-configuration version, the LTE version is more worth buying. LTE high-profile version can support 4G Internet access by inserting a mobile phone SIM card, the price is only 1399 yuan, this price is only 100 yuan higher than the high-configuration WIFI version, and the price difference is only 300 yuan compared to the basic WIFI version, and the cost performance is very good. It should be pointed out that the LTE version only supports Internet access and cannot make phone calls.
 
Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 is equipped with an 8-inch 1080P level 16:10 screen, 1200:1 contrast ratio, compared to Mi Pad 3, the resolution is a bit regressive, but 284 PPI is still on the upper side at the moment, and no obvious particles can be seen under normal conditions. Thanks to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 processor equipped with Xiaomi Mi Pad 4, popular mobile games can basically be played, and "Honor of Kings" can turn on high frame rate mode, and there will be no sudden frame drops or stuttering, and the game experience is very good.
 
For users who prefer a large screen, they can choose the 10.1-inch Xiaomi Pad 4 PLUS, many people compare this model with the iPad 2018, but in fact the two are not comparable, mainly because the price gap is too large and the market positioning is completely different. Xiaomi Pad 4 Plus 4 128GB LTE top version is only 2099 yuan, the lower 64GB version is only 1899 yuan, and iPad 2018 The lowest version is also more than 2500 yuan, it should be said, the price range of the Xiaomi Pad 4 series can just avoid head-on competition with the iPad, and fully play the price advantage of the local tablet.
 
However, the Xiaomi Pad 4 series is only a mid-range mainstream model that focuses on cost performance, and many places have shrunk to varying degrees. The volume button adopts a cheap shrapnel design, and the life will be a little lower, whether it is the Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 or the Plus version, it does not support fast charging, the charging power is only 10W, and the charging process will be relatively long.
