Xiaomi is expanding the Redmi K Pad 2 lineup with a higher-end configuration that targets users who need more memory for demanding tasks. This new setup brings 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage to the device, offering a significant upgrade for multitaskers and gamers who previously had to settle for lower specs. The move gives buyers a clearer path to a powerful tablet experience without waiting for a completely new model release.

New 16GB RAM config launches July 20 in China

The tablet retains its core hardware identity while upgrading its internal capacity. It runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 system-on-chip, which the source notes holds a strong position in AnTuTu benchmark charts. This processor choice ensures that the additional memory has a robust foundation for handling intensive applications and heavy workloads efficiently.

Specifications

  • SoC: MediaTek Dimensity 9500
  • Display Size: 8.8-inch
  • Refresh Rate: 165Hz
  • Panel Type: IPS
  • Peak Brightness: 1,100 nits

Visuals and power management remain central to the device's design. The 8.8-inch IPS display delivers a 165Hz refresh rate and reaches 1,100 nits of peak brightness for clear visibility in bright environments. A 9,100mAh battery supports the system, while dual USB-C ports and a Bose-tuned stereo speaker setup provide versatile connectivity and audio quality.

This specific 16GB RAM and 256GB storage configuration becomes available to purchase in China starting July 20, 2026. Pricing information for this new configuration has not been disclosed. Buyers in other regions should note that the device is expected to launch internationally as the Xiaomi Pad Mini 2, though global launch dates and pricing remain unconfirmed.

The update solidifies the Redmi K Pad 2 as a competitive option in the compact tablet market. Users in China can now access the higher memory tier on the specified date. International customers will need to wait for the Xiaomi Pad Mini 2 branding to clarify global availability and pricing structures.
