There have been numerous leaks concerning the Redmi Pad as of late but the latest information comes directly from Xiaomi itself (via MySmartPrice). Apparently, the Instagram account for Xiaomi’s Kuwait team featured an accidentally posted photo of the Redmi Pad tablet, which was soon deleted. However, screenshots had already been taken, and the post itself revealed two bits of new information about the device.
Firstly, it seems that there will be a third color choice for the Redmi Pad, which is expected to be launched in October. We have already reported about the moonlight silver and graphite gray color options, but it is clear to see in the leaked real-life photo that the Redmi Pad will also come in a refreshingly cool mint green. The real-life tablet matches recent concept renderings of the device, with the slate supposedly coming in 4G and Wi-Fi only variants.
According to the same source, the post also included this marketing text:
Stay connected with your friends and family using video calls on Redmi Pad, which boasts the highest quality video and audio.
In addition to this surprising and bright color choice, another Redmi Pad price tag has been unearthed. The leaked Xiaomi post stated 71.9 Kuwaiti dinars for the tablet, which equates to about US$233/£204/€233/₹18,551. This is presumably for the entry level model with 3 GB RAM + 64 GB, while there is purportedly another variant with a 4 GB + 64 GB configuration. This price leak is close to the recent rumored European prices for the Redmi Pad that suggested a starting amount of €250 for the affordable tablet.
