Xiaomi looks ready to expand its tablet lineup again, and the next generation may be closer than expected. Two unreleased devices — likely the Xiaomi Pad 8 and Pad 8 Pro — have surfaced on China’s 3C certification database, signaling that their debut isn’t far off.
The listings reveal two model numbers: 25091RP04C and 25097RP43C. According to the certification, one supports 67W fast charging, while the other tops out at 45W. That mirrors last year’s split between the Pad 7 Pro and the standard Pad 7, suggesting Xiaomi is sticking to a two-tier approach for its new series. While the company hasn’t confirmed the names yet, Chinese tipsters claim these devices are indeed part of the Xiaomi Pad 8 family.
If the timing holds, we could see the Pad 8 lineup launch as early as late September, possibly sharing the stage with Xiaomi’s next flagship phone, the Xiaomi 16. That would put the new tablets on shelves less than a year after the Pad 7 series arrived — an unusually quick refresh cycle for Xiaomi’s tablet strategy.
Last year’s Pad 7 Pro came equipped with an 11.2-inch 3.2K LCD display at 144Hz, a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset, and quad speakers, while the regular Pad 7 offered the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 and a more modest feature set. Both models shipped with HyperOS, optional matte anti-glare displays, and accessories like detachable keyboards, leaning heavily into productivity and entertainment.
Rumors suggest Xiaomi won’t stray far from that formula. Expect a slim metal chassis, quad-speaker audio tuned for streaming and gaming, and incremental spec bumps to keep pace with competitors. Charging speed appears to be one of the main differentiators once again, with the Pro model offering the faster 67W option.
The 3C approval means both models are cleared for sale in China, and a global launch seems likely, given that the Pad 7 series made its way to international markets earlier this year. With the Pad 8 series now spotted in official listings, the countdown has begun — and Xiaomi fans won’t have to wait long for confirmation.
