Xiaomi is on a roll. In the wake of its Xiaomi 15 series announcement at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2025, the Chinese giant has unveiled a slate of new and refreshed ecosystem offerings, including *takes a deep breath* the Pad 7 lineup, the Watch S4, the Smart Band 9 Pro, the Buds 5 Pro range, the refreshed TV Max 100, and the 212W HyperCharge Power Bank 24500, all of which are coming to Singapore.
Starting with the AI-powered tablet, the base model touts an 11.2-inch 3.2K display (3,200 x 2,136) with a 144Hz refresh rate and a Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 chipset under the hood. It measures 251 x 73 x 6.18mm and weighs 500 grams, carrying a 13-megapixel (MP) shooter (1/3.06″ 1.12μm pixel size, f/2.2) on the rear and an 8MP selfie camera (1/4″ 1.12μm pixel size, f/2.8).
The Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro shares the display specs, but is powered by a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor and packs an upgraded 50MP rear camera (1/2.76″ 1.28μm pixel size, f/1.8) and a 32MP always-on front shooter (1/3.6″ 1.22μm pixel size, f/2.2). Both devices also boast a Qualcomm Adreno GPU and 8,850mAh battery, with 67W HyperCharge support for the Pro – versus 45W turbo charging on the standard build. For those seeking a desktop-like experience or mobile workstation, the tablets are compatible with the Focus Keyboard, default keyboard, and Focus Pen, alongside options for a cover and screen protector.
As the Xiaomi Pad 7 range runs on its HyperAI10 operating system, users can expect artificial intelligence (AI) tools like AI Writing for text composition, AI Speech Recognition, and AI Art with Mi Canvas. Additionally, AI Calculator offers problem-solving capabilities to handle complex calculations, with Xiaomi Share allowing instant file transfer and device pairing by tapping devices together.
The Xiaomi Pad 7 series is available for preorder till 7 March. The base model retails for S$449 (8GB ROM + 128GB RAM) and S$499 (8GB + 256GB), while the Pro iteration is priced at S$549 (8GB + 256GB), S$649 (12GB + 512GB).
Next on the list is the Watch S4 (S$199), sporting a 1.43-inch AMOLED display with a 60Hz refresh rate and 466 x 466 resolution. The bezels and straps are interchangeable, and battery life is rated at 15 days. In addition to functional dials like Clearheaded and Wild Walker, which automatically tracks stress levels and provides real-time direction and altitude, respectively, it also includes all-day monitoring of heart rate, blood, oxygen, stress levels, and sleep patterns, as well as one-tap health insights.
Another addition to the smartwatch family, the Smart Band 9 Pro (S$119) features a narrow-edge quadrilateral AMOLED display and is now available in the all-new Cream White variant. The wearable tech supports over 150 sports modes and round-the-clock monitoring of heart rate, blood oxygen, and stress levels, with a new built-in compass function offering direction guidance for outdoor sports. It packs a 21-day battery life and touts various strap options, including TPU, leather, magnetic designs, and more.
For audio enthusiasts, the Xiaomi Buds 5 Pro (Wi-Fi) marks the company’s first earbuds to support direct wireless connectivity with smartphones, ensuring an industry-leading lossless experience. The combination of Snapdragon Sound Technology Suite and Qualcomm XPAN technology supports 96kHz / 24-bit lossless transmission at a bandwidth of up to 4.2Mbps, and battery is expected last up till 40 hours (with the case).
In comparison, the standard non-Wi-Fi model delivers 48kHz / 24-bit sounds at a transmission bandwidth of up to 2.1Mbps through a dual-amplifier coaxial triple-driver system. Other notable features include up to 55dB hybrid noise cancellation (ANC), dual-device connectivity, personalised dimensional audio, and support for AI-powered translation and transcription. The more affordable of the two retails for S$235, with its Wi-Fi counterpart coming at S$270.
Rounding out the showcase are the TV Max 100, which currently has no details announced, and the 212W HyperCharge Power Bank 24500. Priced at S$115, the latter boasts a multi-functional display, a 89Wh large battery, and multi-brand compatibility, alongside a 140W PD 3.1 single-port output and a three-port output.
Si Jia is a casual geek at heart – or as casual as someone with Sephiroth’s theme on her Spotify playlist can get. A fan of movies, games, and Japanese culture, Si Jia’s greatest weakness is the Steam Summer Sale. Or any Steam sale, really.
