Redmi Pad “All in one, pad for fun” - Gaming Experience Review

Although the Redmi Pad comes with a bigger screen and the battery, it’s also important to have a high performance processor to ensure the smoothness of the device while using. Redmi Pad features the latest MediaTek Helio G99 which is built in flagship 6nm manufacturing process. I would like to try out the gaming experience in the brand new Redmi Pad (4GB RAM + 128GB Storage). Before getting started, let’s have a quick recap on the MediaTek Helio G99 in Redmi Pad. 

MediaTek Helio G99

• 6nm Advanced Process
• Octa-core CPU, 2 x Cortex-A76 (up to 2.2GHz) + 6 x Cortex-A55 (up to 2.0GHz)
• Arm Mali-G57 MC2 GPU

I have run a few benchmark tests in AnTuTu Benchmark and Geekbench 5 to test the performance for Redmi Pad and will share the results from each platform below.

In my observation, you can play graphics-demanding games with the highest available graphics and frame rate settings in Redmi Pad smoothly. Although the bigger screen is good for viewing in gaming, it feels weird and slightly inconvenient if you want to play the games with the thumbs of both hands. After 30 minutes of gaming, Redmi Pad achieved the highest temperature of 33°C and consumes up to 4% of battery. For me, Redmi Pad did a great job to maintain the temperature and battery usage too. In conclusion, if you are looking for an affordable tablet with great performance, Redmi Pad is one of the best choices for you.
