The Poco Pad 5G has just been launched in India, and it’s a major upgrade over its predecessor with the introduction of 5G connectivity. This new feature sets it apart from the previous Poco Pad and makes it a more future-proof choice for users who want faster mobile internet.
Introducing the Poco Pad 5G: Affordable and future-proof technology
Aside from 5G, the Poco Pad 5G shares many features with its predecessor. It has a large 12.1-inch IPS LCD display with Full HD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. This means you get smooth, vibrant visuals that are perfect for browsing, social media, watching videos, and gaming. The large display size is also great for being more productive, especially when paired with accessories like a keyboard and stylus.
The device is powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset, which is designed to deliver smooth everyday performance. Whether you’re multitasking, streaming, or running more demanding apps, this processor handles it all without slowing down. The 7s Gen 2 is also energy efficient, ensuring the device’s 10,000 mAh battery lasts all day. Plus, 33W fast charging means you can top up in no time and get your tablet up and running again without having to wait long.
