Redmi Pad 2 Available for Purchase in Nepal — Best Budget Tablet?

Xiaomi Nepal is making a clear push into the budget tablet market with its new Redmi Pad 2, aiming to offer solid value without breaking the bank.

The Redmi Pad 2 is Xiaomi’s latest shot at the budget tablet space in Nepal, and with so few options available in this segment, it already feels like a strong contender by default.

The device is powered by the Helio G100, a popular processor in the entry-level category and the direct successor to the well-regarded Helio G99.

So, what exactly does the Redmi Pad 2 bring to the table? Let’s break it down.

Redmi Pad 2 Overview

Design

The Redmi Pad 2 introduces a much-needed design upgrade with a flat aluminum body and flat frame, giving it that modern, minimalist vibe. It offers a surprisingly similar experience to the higher-end Xiaomi Pad 7, which is impressive given its affordable price point.

On the back, there’s just a single straight camera. No flashy designs or extra stuff you don’t need. Up top, you’ll find the power button, while the volume rocker lives on the right edge.

In terms of size, the Pad 2 clocks in at just 7.36mm thick—a slight bump from the previous model, but still slim enough to feel sleek in the hand.

At the bottom, there’s a USB-C port and a 3.5mm headphone jack. What you won’t find, though, is a fingerprint sensor. So, you’ll have to settle for face unlock or a traditional PIN. Not a dealbreaker, but worth noting.

Display

The Redmi Pad 2 sports an 11-inch IPS LCD panel with a resolution of 1600 x 2560 pixels. It’s sharp enough for most users, especially at this size—but the 90Hz refresh rate is a bit of a letdown in 2025. With more tablets offering 120Hz and beyond, 90Hz feels… a little behind the curve.

Brightness-wise, you get 500 nits typical, with 600 nits under HBM. That’s fine for indoor use, but take it out under bright sunlight, and you’ll probably find yourself squinting.

On the responsiveness front, the screen features a 360Hz touch sampling rate, which is great for fast navigation and casual gaming. But if you’re using a stylus, the responsiveness drops slightly to 240Hz.

There’s no official mention of Gorilla Glass or any kind of screen protection, so a screen guard might be a smart first accessory. The display does carry TÜV Rheinland certifications for low blue light, flicker-free viewing, and circadian-friendly output.

Hardware

Powering the Redmi Pad 2 is the newly introduced MediaTek Helio G100-Ultra, a 6nm chip that can clock speeds up to 2.2GHz. It’s paired with the Mali-G57 MC2, which isn’t groundbreaking but should hold up just fine for everyday tasks.

And hey, this is the first time we’re seeing the G100, successor to the G99, on a tablet in Nepal, so it’s kind of a debut performance.

The base variant offers 6GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 128GB of internal storage. But for extra headroom, you might want to opt for 8/256GB. And in case that still isn’t enough, the microSD slot supports up to 2TB.

As for audio, you’re getting a quad-speaker setup, with four individual cutouts that create a surprisingly immersive audio experience.

Cameras

Let’s be real. Tablets aren’t really meant for photography, and the Redmi Pad 2 sticks to that idea. The cameras are just there to get the job done.

On the back, you get a single 8MP f/2.0 shooter. Up front, there’s a 5MP selfie camera tucked into the frame. Both cameras support 1080p video recording at 30fps, which is pretty much the standard in this segment.

Battery and OS

Keeping everything running is a massive 9,000mAh battery. However, there’s a catch: charging tops out at just 18W. That’s on the slower side, especially when you’re refueling a battery this big.

On the software front, the Redmi Pad 2 boots up with Android 15, layered with Xiaomi’s new HyperOS 2.

Redmi Pad 2 Price in Nepal and Availability

The Redmi Pad 2 price in Nepal is Rs. 24,999 (6/128GB) and Rs. 29,999 (8/256GB). It is now up for purchase via online stores and authorized Xiaomi stores across Nepal.

The Redmi Pad 2 is a solid upgrade to Xiaomi’s budget tablet lineup. It’s not flashy, but it works well, which is exactly what most people want at this price.

With the new MediaTek Helio G100, it should deliver the right amount of power for day-to-day tasks, casual browsing, and streaming. Pair that with the massive 9,000mAh battery, and you’ve got yourself a reliable workhorse for students, light productivity users, or anyone simply looking to consume content on the go.

If you’re in the market for a budget-friendly tablet that performs well without burning a hole in your pocket, the Redmi Pad 2 is a pretty solid bet.
