r/XiaomiPad7

I was using Xiaomi notes but after the recent update, the app became weirder. So now I'm thinking of switching to another app.

So I have the Xiaomi focus pen for almost over 2 years now (Xiaomi 6s Pad Pro 12.4), and I want to fix it by hand since i cant replace since it has no warranty.

The pen is already dying as soon as you take it out, so Im guessing its a battery problem. It would write good lines for 10 seconds, then the lines would be thin like there are no pressure sensitivity until it completely dies. But tablet says that it still has battery like 60 percent plus when charged again(I dunno if thats faulty PCB or firmware).

The problem is I dont know how to open it, there are no manuals or youtube videos, and I kept searching for it. I don't wanna "too much" risk it since its my only pen and I dont wanna buy a new one since that costs around almost 60 usd or PHP 3500. So I would rather fix it on my own and buy alternative parts.

I dunno if I should Sacrifice my pen for the sake of learning it for general knowledge and share it with others. So if anyone knows what can I do, Please give me some insights.

Which one is better for notes taking in Xiaomi pad 7?

Guys I use the official focus pen for my pad 7. But now I'm quite concerned abt the tip replacements. How do one know when it's time to replace the tips ? Also after the replacement tip given is finished, from where would we buy the replacement tips ? Xiaomi isn't selling it ryt.

Hi, anyone know when we can get WPS PC Level in xiaomi pad 7? Im in a dilemma of should I wait for it to happen or buy new cheap laptop. Thank you.

Bought the Xiaomi Pad 7 Ultra for around €754 all-in, including shipping.

No extra VAT, customs, or import fees, TradingShenzhen’s Global Priority shipping handles that.

Delivery from China to the EU took about 2 weeks. It came with a 120W charger, USB-A to USB-C cable, and EU travel adapter.

Hardware The hardware is genuinely the main reason to buy this. The 14-inch OLED/AMOLED display, 3.2K resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and HDR support are insane for the price. At 5.1mm thick and around 609g, it is absurdly thin and light for its size.

The 8 Dolby Atmos speakers are legitimately loud and clear, at full volume it almost feels like a speaker that happens to have a screen.

Battery life has been excellent. I got around 12 hours of screen-on time across two days and still had about 40% left. Standby drain is also minimal.

The Xring O1 3nm chip with 12GB RAM feels overkill for my use case, but smooth is smooth.

Software / CN ROM Google Services, Play Store, and Play Store certification all work on my unit. It also passes Play Integrity on my units.

Banking apps will most likely work fine, but I have not tested every single one directly on the tablet, so take that as personal experience rather than a guarantee.

Gemini and Circle to Search work, but they can occasionally stop working after clearing RAM/background apps. OTA updates also work.

You can remove about 99% of the Chinese bloatware. Setup took around 30 minutes before it felt clean and usable. Some search-related UI areas are still in Chinese.

Notifications need manual configuration: enable autostart, remove battery restrictions, and lock important apps in recents.

Important limitations Streaming DRM/Widevine: Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video, and similar apps likely will not play in Full HD or UHD. I mainly use Jellyfin for local media, which gives full control over resolution, HDR, bitrate, and audio and with 8 speakers it is a great combo.

No proper GPS: Google Maps works for maps and search, but only shows approximate Wi-Fi/network location on my unit. I would not rely on it for navigation.

No Google Wallet payments: NFC exists, but it is mainly used for Xiaomi ecosystem features and data transfer, not payments.

Wi-Fi only: No cellular or SIM slot. Hotspot from any phone works fine; Xiaomi phones can use Interconnectivity Center for a more seamless experience.

Extras Works as a secondary touchscreen monitor on Windows 11 via SuperDisplay max resolution, 120Hz, no issues. Xiaomi’s built-in screen casting also works. I added a cheap AliExpress case for around $10 and a Nillkin screen protector, the same brand I used on my Xiaomi 17 Pro. Solid quality so far.

I have not tested the official keyboard or stylus yet, so no comment there.

For media, Reddit, browsing, Jellyfin, email, remote desktop, and secondary monitor use, it is excellent.

It is not a full laptop replacement for everyone, but for €754, the hardware is hard to beat. If you know what you are getting into with a CN ROM device, this is a seriously impressive tablet.

If you have any questions, please ask them!
