Xiaomi’s Pad 9 and Pad 9 Pro could retain LCD displays while gaining larger batteries, according to new information from Digital Chat Station. Notebookcheck reports that both tablets could feature a 9,720mAh battery and an approximately 11.2-inch panel, with the details tracing back to a leaker’s original Weibo post. Xiaomi has not confirmed these specifications.
Digital Chat Station says the exact diagonal could be 11.16 inches, which Xiaomi would likely market as 11.2 inches. The display is expected to remain an LCD panel with 3.2K resolution and a high refresh rate, making an OLED transition appear unlikely again. That would follow the established formula: the current Xiaomi Pad 8 and Pad 8 Pro also use 11.2-inch, 3.2K, 144Hz IPS LCD panels.
The Same Battery for Pad 9 and Pad 9 Pro
Both models could carry a 9,720mAh battery, up from 9,200mAh in the Pad 8 generation. That is an increase of about 5.7%—not a dramatic change, but a practical upgrade for a tablet platform. The current Xiaomi Pad 8 Pro shown at MWC 2026 also has a 9,200mAh battery.
The distinction between the models could remain charging speed: 45W for the Xiaomi Pad 9 and 67W for the Pad 9 Pro. These figures are not based solely on the latest rumor; they previously appeared in the tablets’ 3C certifications. Digital Chat Station has also suggested that the Pro model will use a Snapdragon 8-series processor, although the specific chip remains unknown.
Xiaomi appears to be refining a familiar formula rather than changing direction: the same display size, display technology, and charging speeds, paired with a slightly larger battery and likely newer processors. The Pad 8 and Pad 8 Pro reached global markets in 2026, but Xiaomi has not confirmed a Pad 9 launch date, US availability, pricing, or full specifications.
