Xiaomi is all set to launch their Mi Pad 5 series of tablet on August 10. Additionally, the company will also launch the Mi MIX 4 smartphone alongside the premium tablet. However, the company has now revealed the tablet’s official retail box ahead of its official launch. Moreover, a live image of the tablet’s keyboard case has also surfaced online.
The upcoming premium Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 will be packed in a large white box. The box seems pretty wide, from the looks of it. However, it is only a couple of inches thick with the Xiaomi logo located at the top right corner of the box. We can see the name of the tablet etched in the center as well as the side of the box.

Going by the thickness of the box, the Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 does not seem to come with a charger. However, that is not surprising for the company’s flagship phones that have been released this year did not come with a charging adapter either. So, buyers of the Mi Pad 5 will have to buy the charging brick as an additional charge. However, those who already have Xiaomi phones can easily charge the tablet using a USB Type-C cable.
