Xiaomi MiPad gets certified in Malaysia; launch coming soon?

The Xiaomi MiPad tablet has received certification from Malaysia's SIRIM database, which is the equivalent to China's TENAA and the FCC in the U.S. This apparently means that Malaysia will be the second country after China, to play host to Xiaomi's Android flavored slate. While pricing and availability are unknown at present, based on the selling price of the tablet in China, we should see it sell for the equivalent of $209.75 USD in Malaysia.

The Android powered Xiaomi MiPad tablet offers a 7.9-inch screen with a resolution of 1536 x 2048. Under the hood is a 2.2GHz quad-core NVIDIA Tegra K1 CPU. 2GB of RAM is inside, with 16GB of native storage. A 128GB capacity microSD slot is available for those needing additional memory. On back of the slab is a Sony manufactured 8MP camera, and a front-facing 5MP "selfie" snapper is on the front of the tablet. A more than capable 6700mAh battery keeps the lights on.

While most of the focus when it comes to Xiaomi has been on its handsets, there is no reason to skip over this slate. We should point out that the Xiaomi MiPad is available with Wi-Fi connectivity only. There is no model of the tablet that connects to a carrier's cellular network.  .


Thanks for the tip, Chris!
