It’s always good to be able to give readers news of device price slashes, and today’s news might interest readers in India looking for an affordable tablet. There’s a Xiaomi Mi Pad price cut for India, and this is for the original version of the tablet that launched in the country in March last year.

When the Xiaomi Mi Pad launched in India in Q1 2015 the price was announced as Rs. 12,999. It was available exclusively from Flipkart and that was already a competitive price for what the tablet offers. Now the Xiaomi Mi Pad price in India has been permanently cut to Rs. 10,999, making it even more value for money. Availability of the tablet with this new Xiaomi Mi Pad price is through Flipkart or the company’s website.

It’s worth noting that the tablet was previously sold in December for one day only at Rs. 9,999, but Rs. 10,999 is its new permanent price. Another thing to point out is that the Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 was officially introduced in November last year. Therefore it could be that this new lower price for the original Mi Pad in India is because the Mi Pad 2 will be launching in the country soon.

Xiaomi Mi Pad specs include a 2.2GHz Nvidia Tegra K1 quad-core processor, Kepler graphics, and a 7.9-inch display with resolution of 2048 x 1536. It has 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal memory (expandable with microSD card), and is juiced by a 6700 mAh battery. Further specifications consist of an 8-megapixel rear camera with 1080p video capture, and a 5-megapixel front-facing shooter. It runs Xiaomi’s Android-based MIUI ROM.
