What reviewers say
Reviewers praise the bright display, slim metal build and clean software for reading and everyday use. Both consider the pen unsuitable for serious drawing and performance limited for demanding work. ITPro finds battery life commendable at the price; MyNextTablet reports only acceptable endurance and weak demanding-game performance beside the Redmi Pad 2 Pro.
