Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro Tipped to be the First “Pro” Model to Launch Globally

So far, Xiaomi has exclusively introduced the Pro variants of its tablet series within the borders of China. Take the Xiaomi Pad 6, for instance, which is officially available in the markets outside China including India and Europe while the Xiaomi Pad 6 Pro has yet to make its official debut in any of the international markets. But we might see this trend shift next year. As per a recent report by GSMChina, the rumored Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro might just be the first “Pro” variant in the tablet lineup to break free from its local market and make a global debut.

How do we know this? This details about the global launch of Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro was found within the source code of HyperOS, Xiaomi’s new Android skin. The firmware build 23.12.10 includes an entry for the alleged Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro, identified by its code name “sheng,” hinting at a global release. If these indications hold true, Xiaomi seems poised to break away from its tradition of confining the Pro tablets to the Chinese market.
