The upcoming Poco Pad M1 has once again surfaced online, this time appearing in the Geekbench AI database. The listing confirms that the tablet runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 chipset and comes with 8GB of RAM. Interestingly, the prototype used for testing was running Android 15, suggesting the final version may ship with the same OS, despite Android 16’s release in June.
Earlier in October, the Poco Pad M1 received certification, fueling speculation about its imminent launch. Now, new leaks hint that the device could be a rebranded version of Xiaomi’s Redmi Pad 2 Pro.
The Redmi Pad 2 Pro, launched in September, features the same Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 processor. It includes a 12.1-inch LCD with a 1600×2560 resolution and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. The tablet also offers 128GB or 256GB of internal storage, an 8MP rear camera, and an 8MP front camera. Powering it is a 12,000 mAh battery with 33W wired and 27W reverse wired charging support.
Although Poco has not confirmed a release date yet, the brand is expected to unveil the Poco F8 Pro and Poco F8 Ultra in the coming weeks. The Poco Pad M1 will likely debut alongside these smartphones.
