What we like about Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 LTE (4GB + 64GB)

  • Excellent battery life with up to 10-12 hours of screen-on time and strong standby performance
  • Smooth gaming and multitasking performance powered by the Snapdragon 660 chipset
  • Compact and portable 8-inch form factor with a 16:10 aspect ratio ideal for reading and media
  • High value for the price compared to other tablets in the same size category
  • Inclusion of a 3.5mm headphone jack and expandable storage via microSD
  • Reliable LTE connectivity and built-in GPS exclusive to the LTE variant

What we don't like about Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 LTE (4GB + 64GB)

  • Lack of Widevine L1 certification, limiting streaming services like Netflix and Amazon Prime to SD (480p) resolution
  • Software limitations including no pre-installed Google Play Services on original Chinese ROMs and wonky notifications
  • Slower charging speeds due to the absence of official Quick Charge support
  • No fingerprint sensor, relying instead on face unlock which can be unreliable in low light
  • LTE model missing Band 20, which can affect 4G coverage in certain regions like parts of Europe
  • MIUI interface issues such as oversized UI elements and lack of tablet-specific optimization

Verdict

The Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 LTE is a compact 8-inch tablet featuring a 1920x1200 Full HD IPS display with a 16:10 aspect ratio and 283 ppi. It is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 AIE octa-core processor, paired with 4GB of LPDDR4x RAM and 64GB of eMMC 5.1 internal storage, which is expandable via microSD up to 256GB. Key characteristics include a premium unibody metal design, 4G LTE cellular connectivity with GPS support (exclusive to this variant), and a large 6,000mAh battery that offers up to 12 hours of video playback. Its primary pros are its portable one-handed form factor, smooth gaming performance for its class, and loud stereo speakers. However, notable cons include the lack of a fingerprint sensor (relying solely on face unlock), the absence of Widevine L1 support which limits Netflix streaming to 480p, and a camera that lacks a flash.
