Following the launch of the Pad 9 Pro Max, Xiaomi released two new additions to its tablet lineup on its home turf. Much like the top-tier model, the vanilla Pad 9 and the Pad 9 Pro both offer displays with a high refresh rate and large batteries. However, the duo misses out on the company’s in-house XRING O3 chipset, equipping Qualcomm’s Snapdragon processors instead.
