October 2024 Colour Name: Blue Size Name: 8+256GB Style Name: Redmi Pad Pro Why they can’t stick with the default version of Android rather than some bastardised version is beyond me. Had it a few weeks, still haven’t worked out how to close a running app other than switch it off.

The BLX-1 battery has been created for the latest [as of 2024] OM-Digital mirrorless Micro-Four-Thirds camera bodies. It is well made and although I have not owned any long enough to give a view as to potential capacity fade with time, but so far the amount of use – the number of shots and active, switch-on time, and performance all appear good. Before I get to a more detailed review, however, I wanted to offer a word of warning to anyone considering buying a third-party battery. A few years ago I was invested in the Canon ecosystem and a work colleague persuaded me that I could “save a lot of money” by purchasing 3rd-party batteries for my camera. One day I was attending a county fair that included a falconry display, and I was shooting in C-AF mode with my camera, taking bursts of shots in groups of say 15-20 at a time. I started to feel my right hand getting hot on the camera grip… and when I investigated discovered that a brand new third party battery was overheating, likely because of the draw that continuous shooting was causing. Another reason for using original batteries concerns the performance/specification of the compatible units. Also with a Canon camera [7D] I found that I had an issue with auto-focus accuracy during C-AF operation. In the end I gave up on the camera and sold it. I later discovered from a friend who owned the same model that the issue with focus lag was caused by the fact that a single 7D battery was simply not capable of driving the camera and the big Canon L-Series lenses… which is why the Canon “Pro” range always uses huge batteries. He solved the issue by purchasing a portrait grip and adding a second battery. OK, to the review of the BLX-1:- Positives: + Very well made + Designed and built to operate with the OM-Digital M43 range + Nice increase in capacity [and therefore shots] compared with my Olympus OM-D EM-1 Mk II Negatives: – Outrageously, offensively expensive for what it is. To give you a like-for-like comparison… at the time of writing this battery is retailing on Gadget Tree for £79. A couple of weeks ago I purchased 2 extra 5.5Ah batteries for my Makita 18v cordless tools… and I paid £65 each, again from Gadget Tree. The Makita batteries have *far* more capacity, *far* more power [they have something like 8x the volume of the BLX-1] and they are designed and built to withstand use on building sites… OM Digital are ripping off customers at this price. – Change for change’s sake. When I put the BLX-1 battery side-by-side with my Olympus-original, the changes are trivial… The BLX-1 runs at 7.2v, the BLH-1 at 7.4. The BLX-1 provides 2280mAh / 17Wh of capacity; the BLH-1 provides 1720 and 12.8, respectively. But the biggest difference here is that the BLX-1 has adopted a “rounded shoulder” profile, a lot like the batteries in my old EOS 7D… which means that the BLH-1 batteries simply won’t fit. This means that if I take 2 bodies out for a day’s shooting [to quickly switch between mounted lenses] I have to take 2 complete sets of batteries. It means I have to run 2 sets of chargers. It means I have to invest in more batteries. Sum-Up I appreciate that OM-Digital are a separate company, but if they want customers to be loyal to the brand, then the brand needs to be loyal to customers. And two of the most important elements of that – apart from producing good quality gear – is to charge fair prices and offer rational upgrade/migration paths. OM-Digital are doing neither of those things with the BLX-1, which is why they only deserve 3 stars. 2 people found this helpful

My first Redmi product and I can say this is a great tablet for the price. I have used the samsungs and a couple of others and apart from camera quality which isn’t a problem the rest of the hardware performs very well. I have run the tests on most casino’s and ram hungry apps and this just doesn’t slow down whatsoever. I always keep the cache clear after every use and this will help and just don’t fill it with crap lol. Charges fast as well and for this price range has impressive sound, I use a graphic EQ to make it sound even better. One person found this helpful

I’ve been using this Redmi Tab Pro tablet for about 2 weeks and think it’s a excellent product. It’s 256GB memory with 8GB of RAM gives excellent storage and rapid processing, so no problems there. There’s even a slot for an SD card to expand the memory even further as well as a 3.5mm jack socket for external speakers. I can’t fault the screen either. At 12.1″ it’s an excellent size and crystal clear. I was a little concerned before I bought it that it was going to be a bit too big and unwieldy but that’s not a concern. It is a bit on the heavy side though, especially in its case, but that seems to me to be a acceptable trade off for its size. One review that I read described it as a slab rather than a tablet but that I think is unfair. My one issue is with the sound quality. It claims 4 speakers with Dolby Atmos sound but I find the internal speakers to be very tinny and not as good as expected hence the 4 stars. I can’t speak for the cameras because I haven’t used them. Overall I’m very pleased, this tablet does pretty much everything I want it to. 5 people found this helpful

Despite this being reviewed everywhere as a budget tablet, it runs like a dream. Better than most laptops I’ve owned. Obviously there will be premium features lacking, but that’s very fairly reflected in the price. What you get for your money is pretty stunning. Highly recommended.

Very nice tablet got it on a deal not full price. If you’re looking at changing from apple to android it might be the one for you. It has a similar interface. I would think carefully about android tablets in general they are not optimised for all programs. Graphics are noticeably bad sometimes which is a shame. Think carefully if you want to change tablets it might not be worth it for you. Sound is great and tv shows etc. it runs normal tasks very well. It has a very fast processor optional sd card tray I got the 256 version access to google play store. Worth purchasing 2 people found this helpful
