Besides the stylish, powerful MiPad, Xiaomi is prepping something more down to earth in the Android slate department, it seems. According to the GFXBench database it should sport a 9.2" display with HD resolution, unlike the 8" high-res panel of the MiPad. The choice of display resolution hints that this will be a low-cost device, confirmed further by the silicon mix - a 1.2 GHz Snapdragon 410 by Qualcomm, paired with 1 GB of RAM, and 8 GB of internal storage, of which about 6 GB are user-available.
There is no rear camera to speak of, but the surprising part is that a front-facing shooter is also conspicuously missing, indicating either a non-final specs listing, or a really barebones, affordable device by Xiaomi. The chipset is 64-bit, though, so the purported tablet could be outed with Android 5.0 Lollipop onboard. Furthermore, the device obviously has a SIM card slot, too, so there's obviously more than meets the eye here, so we can't wait for more info to trickle down the pipe.
Mint Mobile is now allowing you to get whichever plan you like for either three, six, or 12 months for just $15/mo. If you go for the six-month unlimited service, for instance, you'll now have to pay just $90 upfront instead of $210.
