Xiaomi has expanded its tablet lineup in Indonesia with the launch of Redmi Pad 2 9.7, a device that combines a 2K 120Hz display, a large 7,600 mAh battery, and HyperOS 3 at a price of Rp2.399.000. The positioning is clear: this is meant to be a practical all-in-one tablet for students, young users, and anyone who wants one device for both work and entertainment.
The appeal is not limited to the price. Xiaomi is pairing compact hardware with a specification set that includes Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 2, Android 16, and expandable storage, making the tablet look more complete than many devices in the same class.
Built for daily mobility
Redmi Pad 2 9.7 follows the Simply Smart, Simply Fun concept, with a design aimed at learning, streaming, gaming, and content creation. The body measures 7.4 mm thick and weighs around 406 grams, which makes it easier to carry throughout the day.
Xiaomi also says the tablet has passed more than 40 durability tests. Its metal body adds a more premium feel while supporting everyday use in a portable format.
Display stands out in its segment
One of the strongest selling points is the 2K panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. Xiaomi says the screen is designed to deliver sharper images, richer colors, and clearer detail, while the higher refresh rate should make navigation feel smoother and more responsive.
The display also reaches up to 600 nits of brightness, which helps it remain usable in indoor settings and under brighter light. Xiaomi adds TÜV Rheinland Low Blue Light, Flicker Free, and Circadian Friendly certifications to help reduce eye fatigue during longer sessions.
Performance, storage, and connectivity
Under the hood, the tablet uses Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 2 built on a 6nm process. The octa-core chipset reaches speeds of up to 2.9 GHz, and Xiaomi claims it brings up to 51 percent CPU performance improvement over the previous generation.
The Indonesian model comes with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. For users who need more room, the storage can be expanded with a microSD card up to 2TB.
Xiaomi also notes that Snapdragon 6s Gen 2 scores more than 400,000 points on AnTuTu, reinforcing the tablet’s position for gaming and everyday multitasking.
Battery life and bundled charger
Power comes from a 7,600 mAh battery, which Xiaomi claims can last more than a day on a single charge. That capacity is intended to support online classes, work sessions, movie playback, and gaming without frequent charging stops.
A 15W charger is included in the box, so users do not need to buy an adapter separately. That detail makes the package more practical for a tablet in this price range.
Software features for work and cross-device use
Redmi Pad 2 9.7 runs Android 16 with Xiaomi HyperOS 3. The software is designed to make cross-device tasks smoother, including document sharing, text copying, and receiving calls from other Xiaomi devices.
The tablet also includes Circle to Search by Google, which lets users search for information by circling objects or images on the screen. Another notable feature is Wireless Display Extension, allowing the tablet to work as a second screen for a laptop or PC.
Price, color options, and availability
In Indonesia, the tablet is offered in Graphite Gray and Silver. The available configuration is 4GB RAM and 64GB storage, priced at Rp2.399.000.
During the initial sales period, buyers can also receive Redmi Buds 6 Play as a bonus. Redmi Pad 2 9.7 is available through Mi.com, Shopee, Tokopedia, TikTok Shop, Blibli, Lazada, Xiaomi Authorized Store, Erafone, Erablue, Blibli Store, Digiplus, and other official Xiaomi retail partners.
With its combination of a 2K 120Hz display, 7,600 mAh battery, Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 2, and expandable storage, Redmi Pad 2 9.7 enters the affordable tablet segment with a package that targets productivity and entertainment in one compact device.
