After the Xiaomi MiPad, there’s a new tablet coming from this brand, judging by a fresh leak from GFXBench. The benchmark reveals the specs of a new model, codenamed for now Xiaomi 2014811 and supposed to be an affordable slate with pretty decent specs.
The newcomer has 1 GB of RAM and a Snapdragon 410 quad core processor, as the benchmark shows. This one is expected to be a 9.2 inch tablet, with Adreno 306 GPU, a 720p screen resolution and front and back camera. The OS here is Android 4.4.4, probably with MIUI on top and we’ll also get a SIM card slot for 3G access. Judging by Hugo Barra’s recent statements, we can also expect to see Android 5.0 Lollipop on this device, soon after launch.
We’ve also getting 8 GB of storage, an accelerometer, compass, GPS, gyroscope and light sensor. If you ask me, this sounds like a cheaper rival for the Nexus 9, if I can say that, judging by the huge difference in specs. Anyway, I’d say the right price for this model is below $200, to be honest. Anything more than that would serious challenge the market value of the product.
