202 1 Xiaomi tablet 5 evaluation: it is more worth starting than Apple iPad 9.

202 1 Xiaomi Tablet 5 is an excellent android tablets, and there is nothing to be picky about in hardware. Its lightweight design is supported by powerful specifications, gorgeous display and excellent speakers. In terms of cost performance, it is more worth starting than Apple's entry-level iPad 9.

Xiaomi tablet 5 evaluation begins:

design

Xiaomi Tablet 5 adopts the design language of high-end iPad, with square edges, slim borders and high-quality materials, which easily reminds people of the beauty of the design of Apple iPad Pro, far ahead of the outdated design of Apple iPad 9.

Its surface feels very smooth, and after polishing, its structure is almost unbelievable-the thickness is only 6.85 mm, which is thinner than almost any mobile phone and the weight is only 511g.

Although the frame of Xiaomi flat 5 is made of aluminum, the back is actually made of plastic, and there is no glass back cover, but the high-end plastic material not only increases the robustness of the equipment, but also brings a more advanced texture than glass.

In terms of control, you will only find a power button and a volume rocker, which are located on both sides of the same corner of the border. There is also a USB-C port and a POGO connector on the side of the fuselage for connecting the keyboard. In addition, Xiaomi is also equipped with a keyboard and a stylus.

From a hardware point of view, there is a frustrating omission: there is no fingerprint sensor. There is a small cylindrical mark on the right side of the frame, which seems to be used to install the fingerprint reader, but it is not. The display does not support it, but you can unlock it with your face.

Display and audio

The biggest highlight of Xiaomi Flat Panel 5 display is that it has a refresh rate of 120Hz, which makes the animation of the whole device smoother and increases the fluidity. If you are an avid gamer, it can also release the potential of frame rate exceeding 60fps.

The display screen is not inferior in other respects. It is a 1 1 inch panel with a resolution of 2.5K (1600 x 2560). Although it is an IPS LCD, not an organic light-emitting diode, Xiaomi Tablet 5 can still get an excellent color gamut, supporting HDR 10 and Dolby Vision.

Whether working, browsing the web or watching some videos, this monitor is pleasant, bright in color and excellent in viewing angle.

It can be said that Xiaomi has put more energy into audio. Xiaomi Tablet 5 has no 3.5mm audio jack, only wireless or USB-C headphones, but the four speakers here are really impressive.

Speakers are more important on tablets than mobile phones, because you are more likely to use them to watch movies or make video calls. Of course, the bass effect provided is limited, but the audio power here is enough for the size of Xiaomi flat 5, not to mention the support of Dolby panoramic sound.

Core performance

Xiaomi Tablet 5 keeps the low price without sacrificing the core performance, and effectively improves the performance to the maximum extent.

The key is to adopt Snapdragon 860, which is an overclocked version of the old Qualcomm flagship chipset. In essence, this means that Xiaomi Tablet 5 has enough power to make most daily tasks simple and to make it easy to run demanding games.

If there is a compromise, it is that Xiaomi Tablet 5 only provides 6GB of memory, and I prefer to see 8GB available. In terms of storage, there are two options: 128GB or 256GB.

The following is a running comparison chart between Xiaomi Tablet 5 and other similar devices:

camera

The camera is not important on the tablet, or the rear camera is not important.

The 8Mp and f/2.0 self-timer cameras of Xiaomi Tablet 5 are not very good. Due to the low resolution, the picture quality is still quite soft. If there is insufficient light, the quality will drop sharply.

However, the 13Mp and f/2.0 rear cameras are excellent. They can capture some amazing solid color photos with bright colors and good details, and the photo quality can remain unchanged even in low light, although it is not designed for real night photography. If necessary, Xiaomi Tablet 5 can even shoot 4K video at 30fps.

battery life

The 8720mAh battery of Xiaomi Tablet 5 is impressive, and I can use it for two days after it is fully charged. In the PCMark battery life test, the battery life of Xiaomi Tablet 5 is about 15 hours, which is better than any Samsung Galaxy Tab we tested in the past two years.

In addition, Xiaomi Tablet 5 supports 33W fast charging, which can quickly supply power to the equipment when the equipment is running out of power.

It is more worth starting than Apple iPad 9.

We know that Apple's iPad 9 still uses an outdated large bezel design and a 60Hz screen. Although Apple may have the upper hand in performance, Xiaomi Tablet 5 has modern mainstream design style, 1 1 inch 120Hz display, flagship processing performance, 13Mp rear camera, super battery life and lower price.
