Xiaomi's products stand on their own merit, and devices like the Xiaomi 15 Ultra combine class-leading cameras with a gorgeous design and long-lasting battery. But every so often, the brand sees what its rivals are doing, and just decides to emulate those designs. That is the case with the Xiaomi Pad 7; a mid-range Android tablet that comes with the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3, a 11.2-inch LCD panel, and 8,850mAh battery.
There is a lot to like with the Pad 7, but before we get started, we need to talk about the design; Xiaomi did such a convincing job copying the design of the iPad Air that the Pad 7 looks nearly identical. I'm not kidding — even the packaging is similar to the iPad Air, and my wife just assumed it was the new iPad and not a Xiaomi tablet. Heck, even the keyboard accessory has the exact same design as the Magic Keyboard.
