Xiaomi has officially lifted the curtain on the Xiaomi Pad 7S Pro 12.5, giving us a complete look at its design, specs, and performance ahead of launch.
With help from teardown experts WekiHome and the ever-reliable Digital Chat Station, we now have a full picture of Xiaomi’s new powerhouse tablet.
The Pad 7S Pro 12.5 sports a slim metal body, just 5.8mm thin and 576g light, available in four colors-beige, blue, black, and purple. Up front is a massive 12.5-inch IPS LCD display with a crisp 3:2 aspect ratio and an ultra-sharp 3200×2136 resolution, capable of a smooth 144Hz refresh rate. Brightness peaks at 827 nits, making it quite readable even under sunlight.
Inside, the tablet runs on Xiaomi’s own Xring O1 chip, paired with 16GB of RAM and 1TB of Samsung UFS 4.1 storage. While this version of the chip has its main core clocked at 3.4GHz (a slight downclock from earlier versions), both benchmarks and real-world gaming tests speak volumes. It powered Genshin Impact on max settings for over 7 hours straight at a stable 60fps-no small feat.
Photography isn’t a major focus, but the device does include a 50MP f/1.8 rear camera with an SKJN1 sensor, and a respectable 32MP f/2.2 front shooter using the OV32D sensor. It’s more than enough for video calls and light content capture.
Powering everything is a beefy 10,610mAh battery with blazing-fast 120W HyperCharge support. The tablet also provides 7.5W reverse charging, letting it double as an emergency power bank.
Productivity gets a boost with Xiaomi’s new floating keyboard accessory, which includes an adjustable stand and glass touchpad, alongside full stylus support-perfect for creators and on-the-go professionals. Think of it as Xiaomi’s answer to Apple’s Magic Keyboard.
While the IPS LCD may disappoint OLED fans, Xiaomi is clearly positioning the Pad 7S Pro 12.5 as a serious rival to Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S10+-especially with its large display, high refresh rate, and aggressive performance-per-dollar ratio. The only real lingering complaint? Software longevity. With this hardware, there’s no excuse not to deliver long-term support.
