MIUI 13 Pad announced with the same OS except it’s crafted solely for tablets

Xiaomi officially announced a new branch of MIUI 13 built specifically for tablets called ‘MIUI 13 Pad’ with numerous optimizations designed to make Android and some of its apps that look better on a larger screen.

A teaser was posted by company CEO Lei Jun yesterday who revealed that MIUI 13 Pad will be going big on multitasking, allowing at least two apps to be visible at the same time.

On top of that, the OS has also adapted the top 3000 apps for larger screens so that not been a single inch gets wasted. A few other tablet-specific optimizations and features are likely there too but we would have to wait until tomorrow to see them.

Xiaomi has scheduled a major launch towards the end of the year where a number of new products are set to launch including the Xiaomi 12, Watch S1, and of course, MIUI 13 along with MIUI 13 Pad.

The unveiling of the MIUI 13 Pad comes at a time when smartphone OEMs are increasingly focusing on making their Android skins better in order to provide an amazing experience on larger screens.

The reason for this is that the pandemic has acted as a major accelerator for tablet sales due to increased emphasis on WFH culture and online learning. What good is a tablet if its UI does not deliver a good experience on additional screen estate?

Coming to MIUI 13 itself, the update is bringing a number of new features but is still prioritizing fluidity and privacy over everything else.

Still, a few meaningful changes have been done including entirely reworked widgets for system apps.
