Discussion Does the Xiaomi pad 8 is good?

Hi yall I want to get a tablet mainly for gaming, multi tasking, take some notes and drawing, I searched a little bit and the Xiaomi pad 8 seems like a good option, I also saw the OnePlus pad 2 but tbh I rly like the Xiaomi hyperos operation system and I like that the Xiaomi have like a pc mode that's looking great, what you think should I do?

tbh this is a solid shortlist because you already have the right priorities for Android tablet use. For your mix of gaming, notes, and drawing, Xiaomi Pad 8 fits your HyperOS preference and keeps the setup familiar, which lowers setup pain during the first month. If your priority later shifts toward heavier multitasking and smoother frame consistency, OnePlus Pad 2 usually handles that workflow better and has a stronger finish in the long runs. In practical terms, the size and feel are close enough that switching habits is less painful than you fear, so this is mainly a use-case call and not a prestige call. If i had to keep one answer straight: pick the tablet that supports your daily stack without adapter-level friction.

No! It's crap Video streaming out of the box is crap It keeps buffering Sound is only soso NOT the premium you think you're getting at all! Then try service! Logged in so you'd suppose they know everything about you... Irritating questions! Asking everything again that they already have And not in confiring way... Is this your phone nr...? No just make you do everything... That's NOT what thought I bought xiaomi top of the line pad for... I want my money back!
