Redmi, which was once known for delivering “more bang for your buck” devices, has been losing ground in the affordable and mid-range smartphone segment in recent years, due in equal measure to its own strategic choices and the rise of its competitors. Dissatisfaction among retailers, poorly positioned products, and gains made by its rivals are just some of the reasons its shipments have seen a steep decline, and the outlook now appears grim. The Redmi 15 5G was launched in India last month as yet another attempt to reverse the company's fortunes.

The high-value, do-it-all Redmi Pad is finally back after a 3-year wait. Aptly called the Redmi Pad 2, the tablet appears to be slightly different and features some essential additions that were missing from the first model. There's a new processor, a slightly more pixel-dense display, and a slightly bigger battery, all of which I found to be questionable at best. However, there are also some new additions, such as stylus support and cellular connectivity, which seem to make it even more attractive than the previous model. I have been using this tablet for a couple of weeks, and I feel that despite the minor upgrades, the Redmi Pad 2 offers good value, and here's why.
