The Chinese electronics giant Xiaomi has released an affordable rival to Apple's iPad: the new Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro entices with generous features, optional accessories such as a stylus and keyboard cover as well as a powerful upper-class processor for demanding users and creative professionals. Krone+ tested the professional tablet from China.

Android tablets with a lot of computing power, a large screen, pen operation and a keyboard cover are a comparatively rare phenomenon; Apple's iPad (Pro) and, if PC hardware is also an option, Microsoft's Surface line are leading the way in this segment. In the Android world, Samsung is holding its own - and now also Xiaomi with its Pad 6S Pro. In the test, the Chinese tablet for around 600 euros made a good impression - but not in every application scenario.
