Not much have changed, I did not find any new features introduced. However the best thing I love about this tablet is full Widevine L1 support, this is a true multimedia powerhouse. And those GOD awesome quad Dolby Atmos speakers and amazing battery life.

Anonymous, 18 Oct 2021I'd have got one if it had WiFi only 4/128 variant. 🥺Well my Realme Pad is of 4/64GB memory configuration and supports both WiFi and 4G LTE. It comes with a hybrid SIM slot, so a proper dual 4G VoLTE support. Then again at the price it is offered currently, I better bent my needs to have one that Realme offers. And support for microSD card upto 1TB makes it a no brainer choice.

NeonHD, 13 Oct 2021Nice, I'm sure you'll enjoy it a lot. Actually YES, I am enjoying quite a lot.
Things I like about Realme Pad:
1) Premium metal build, slim, elegant & minimalistic design. Fortunately no screaming "DARE TO LEAP" logo at back, just a subtle "realme" logo in the corner. I have the grey variant and this looks classy with those neat chamfered edges running all around. It is also pretty light at just 440 grams.
2) Bright & beautiful 10.4" IPS LCD display with oleophobic coating on top. Hence no smudges on display while using. At over 400 nits, very bright for indoor use for a tablet. Colors just pop and viewing angles are great. For this IPS panel, I get amazing contrasts like OLED panels. You get very deep inky blacks. The panel also gets very dim at night and causes no strain in my eyes. Even with (2000 × 1200) & 224 ppi I observe no pixelation issues. All in all for less than $300 tablet, Realme have cut no corners and is providing the best display. Period.
3) Mediatek Helio G80 SoC in this tablet may not win any races now, but will plough the field from day to night. Best SoC you can get on a tablet under $250. It runs cool and is very well optimized to run efficiently. Its GPU is respectably powerful and i can play games at medium settings. G80 uses the same proven TSMC 12nm fabrication process of the Mediatek G90T, G95 & G96 Helios range.
4) I own the 4GB LPDDR4x RAM variant, which to me was the oblivious choice for long term use. With Andriod apps getting RAM heavy and fatter day-by-day, I never looked back at 3GB variants. The 4GB variant have no lagging issues and works smoothly during navigation and browsing. I do get once-in-a-blue-moon stutters, but those are nit picking. 6GB variant is not available in India.
5) Provided 64GB eMMC 5.1 internal storage is enough to install 200 apps if required. For the rest of the multimedia contents, photos & documents we get the option to expand the memory with an additional memory card. I am using a 256GB card which is enough for my needs. So no worries about running out of memory with support for upto 1TB.
6) Comes with 3.5mm audio jack. Thank GOD. A must have for me to enjoy any type of lag/ latency free audio, multimedia experience without disturbing others. Audio quality is just OK for me. Gets the job done and still far superior than garbage TWS. Smartphones & tablets have pretty much taken over as the primary source of music for most people and smartphone manufacturers took this opportunity to kill the wired audio market so they could sell overpriced, mediocre wireless garbage to consumers.
7) Awesome 4 speaker stereo setup, very loud and clear. Provides an unheard immersive audio experience with Dolby Atmos. Right up there with $400 tablets. Just blew my mind. Period.
8) For tablets, selfie camera is more important to me than the back camera. Realme have put a 8MP wide angle selfie camera which gets the job done. Rear is also a 8MM with no flashlight. Just OK performance here and the camera app is bare bones.
9) Big internal 7100mah battery when paired with an efficient SoC like G80 provides outstanding battery life. For my usage lasts for 3 days to get down to 25% battery. No complaints here.
10) Modern USB Type-C port and 18 watts fast charger included in the box. I use a 10 watts charger instead to prolong battery life and it takes me 2 hours approx to charge from 25% to 80%.
11) Clean Android 11, though I would have loved the customized Realme UI on top of this instead. I like the rich set of customization's that comes with Realme UI, but I think it is too much of an ask for the 3GB model. Happy with what I got but missing double tap to wake or sleep functions.
12) Very good LTE performance with support for all Indian telco 4G LTE bands. I tested with JIO, and the 4G VoLTE worked just fine.
13) However the price at which Realme is offering this tablet is just mind boggling. The 4/64GB memory configuration generally retails for ₹18K at Flipkart. During recent Flipkart BBD Diwali sales, flat ₹2K discount was provided, making it the best but at ₹16K. Chip in the Axis Bank Flipkart co-pay card and you get almost 15% discount. I had to pay ₹13.68K ($183, 158 euros) and got one at a heartbeat. Even at $300, this tablet has no competition in India.
All in all a big thumbs up to Realme for their first ever tablet as they have successfully disrupted the tablet market and provided the consumers the best value tablet under $300 tablet segment. Full marks to Realme for their efforts.

NeonHD, 28 Sep 2021It's very cheap, offers premium build quality, and runs near stock Android, what is there... moreThe Realme Pad is a steal considering the current price they are retailing in Flipkart. Few days back I bought the 4/64 GB memory variant with both Wifi + LTE support for ₹13,680 ($183, 158 euros) after card discounts.
Here, Realme is using an off the shelf ODM product for Longcheer Electronic HUIZHOU Co LTD to have zero R&D costs and provide better specs for the same price. The pad specifications are chosen by Realme and there is hardly any specification or design change that can be altered largely. The same pad may be sold to both Realme & Lenovo and the only difference will be in logos.
These ODM partners also provide the software. That's why this one comes with stock Android devoid of any Realme UI overlay.
I am yet to receive it, will share my thoughts after using it.

Someone please give actual review on reading in this tab. I am looking for buying ipad 9. only taking back is due to lightning port. As EU is forcing Apple to move to Type C, in long term lightning port may get ignored by Apple. My primary need is reading.
