Earlier this month, news broke that Xiaomi is developing a new tablet, the Redmi Pad SE 8.7 4G. We also recently shared a live image of this device. Now, the Redmi Pad SE 8.7 4G, identified by the model number 24076RP19I, has obtained BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) certification, indicating an imminent launch.
The same model number has appeared in the IMEI database as well. While the BIS certification doesn't reveal detailed specifications, other certifications provide some clues.
Key Features
According to the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) certification, the tablet will operate on Xiaomi’s Hyper OS 1.0. It will support dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, 4G LTE, and include an FM receiver. Additionally, the device has been listed in Singapore’s IMDA (Info-communications Media Development Authority) database, suggesting a global release is forthcoming.
The tablet’s name indicates it will have an 8.7-inch screen. For comparison, the Redmi Pad SE, which launched in September 2023 in China and April 2024 in India, features an 11-inch display. Therefore, this new model might be a more budget-friendly version of the Redmi Pad SE.
