The Xiaomi Poco Pad X1 measures 251.2 x 173.4 mm with a thickness of just 6.2 mm and a weight of 500 g, resulting in a total volume of 270.06 cm³. The tablet does not include a stylus, a detachable keyboard, or backlit keyboard support, and it offers no water resistance rating. Tilt sensitivity is also absent, making this a straightforward tablet form factor without additional input or environmental protection accessories.
The Poco Pad X1 features an 11.2″ IPS LCD touchscreen with a resolution of 3200 x 2136 pixels and a pixel density of 344 ppi, paired with a 144Hz refresh rate for smooth on-screen motion. The display supports both HDR10 and Dolby Vision for a broad range of HDR content, and includes an anti-reflection coating to reduce glare, though HDR10+ is not supported. It does not use branded damage-resistant glass or sapphire glass, and it is not an e-paper display.
The Poco Pad X1 runs on a 4nm octa-core processor configured as 1 x 2.8 GHz, 3 x 2.6 GHz, and 4 x 1.9 GHz cores using big.LITTLE technology, with a TDP of 6W and 8 CPU threads, posting Geekbench 6 scores of 1913 single-core and 5098 multi-core. It comes with 8GB of RAM at 4200 MHz and 256GB of internal storage, with no external memory slot available, though the system supports a maximum memory configuration of up to 24GB at a peak bandwidth of 64 GB/s. Graphics are handled by the integrated Adreno 732 GPU clocked at 950 MHz, with 768 shading units and support for DirectX 12, OpenGL ES 3.2, and OpenCL 2. The chipset also includes integrated LTE, TrustZone security, and 64-bit support, and the tablet ships with Android 15 out of the box.
The Poco Pad X1 features a 13 MP rear CMOS camera with an f/2.2 aperture, capable of recording video at up to 2160p at 30 fps, along with slow-motion video support and a single LED flash with a video light. Manual controls include ISO, focus, exposure, and white balance, while touch autofocus and continuous autofocus during video recording are also supported; however, optical zoom, optical image stabilization, burst mode, and manual shutter speed are not available. The rear camera does not have a BSI sensor, and neither HDR mode, HDR10 recording, nor Dolby Vision recording are supported. On the front, an 8 MP camera with an f/2.3 aperture handles video calls and selfies, though it lacks a front-facing flash. Neither 360-degree panorama nor 3D recording capabilities are present on either camera.
The Poco Pad X1 includes stereo speakers for built-in audio output, but does not have a 3.5 mm headphone jack or a radio tuner. On the wireless audio side, none of the advanced Bluetooth codec standards are supported, meaning aptX, aptX HD, aptX Low Latency, aptX Adaptive, aptX Lossless, and LDAC are all absent.
The Poco Pad X1 is equipped with an 8850 mAh rechargeable battery that is non-removable and includes a battery level indicator for monitoring charge status. The tablet does not support fast charging or wireless charging, so it relies on standard wired charging only.
The Poco Pad X1 connects wirelessly via Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), with backward compatibility for Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 4, and pairs with peripherals over Bluetooth 5.4, while download and upload speeds reach up to 5000 Mbits/s and 3500 Mbits/s respectively. It uses USB Type-C 3.2 for wired connectivity but lacks HDMI output, Ethernet support, NFC, and a cellular module, meaning it has no 5G support or GPS. On the software side, the tablet supports split screen, Picture-in-Picture, dark mode, dynamic theming, theme customization, widgets, media picker, full-page screenshots, customizable notifications, notification controls, child lock, multi-user support, battery health check, and the ability to play games while downloading. Privacy features include location privacy options, camera and microphone access controls, app tracking blocking, and clipboard warnings, though cross-site tracking blocking, Mail Privacy Protection, and Wi-Fi password sharing are not present. Sensors on board include a gyroscope, accelerometer, and compass, while a barometer, infrared sensor, fingerprint scanner, iris scanner, and 3D facial recognition are all absent. The device also supports on-device machine learning, offline voice recognition, voice commands, sharing intents, phone tracking, Live Text, an extra dim mode, app offloading, and device position tracking, but does not offer focus modes, Quick Start, direct OS vendor updates, Galileo navigation, or a built-in projector.
The Poco Pad X1 uses DDR5 memory and supports multithreading, allowing the processor to handle multiple threads simultaneously for more efficient workload distribution.
