POCO has finally launched its first ever tablet in India, the POCO Pad 5G. After entry into the tablet segment, POCO is included with a 12.1-inch 2.5K+ 120Hz LCD that should give users dazzling visuals while running games or apps seamlessly. The tablet is powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 SoC. Also, it is available with up to 8 GB of RAM.
The POCO Pad 5G is instantly recognizable with its svelte 7.52 mm metal body and premium feel. For that next level in your entertainment, the POCO Pad goes a step further to include quad speakers, all powered within a huge 10,000mAh battery with support up to 33W fast charging to keep you powered all day.
For enhanced productivity, it offers a Smart Pen stylus with 4096 levels of pressure sensitivity and a minimal latency of 5ms, which is quite suited to making notes and creating graphic visuals. In this regard, POCO’s very first keyboard-style double-sided protective case adds another layer of versatility to the device.
