Xiaomi India on Friday announced that the MiPad tablet will now be available at Rs. 10,999, down Rs. 2,000 from the launch price.
The Chinese company announced the news in a tweet and confirmed that the tablet will be available at the new prices from the company's store and Flipkart. Notably, this is the first permanent price cut of the MiPad tablet in India. To recall, the MiPad tablet was unveiled in India back in March last year at Rs. 12,999.
The price cut of the Xiaomi MiPad indicates that we may see the successor being unveiled in India soon. The company launched the Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 tablet with Android OS-based version in November. The tablet came in two storage variants - 16GB and 64GB - which were priced at CNY 999 (approximately Rs. 10,300) and CNY 1,299 (approximately Rs. 13,500) respectively. A version running Windows 10 was also launched in only a 64GB variant, and was priced the same as the 64GB Android variant.
