Xiaomi is expected to launch the 4th device in its Mi Pad series of Tablets which is dubbed as Mi Pad 4 at an event a few days from now in China. Only recently, the company confirmed to us the device could come with theĀ Snapdragon 660 SoC and an 8-inch screen with Full-HD, while other specs are also flying around in the form of rumors.
Now, ahead of the official unveiling, the company has confirmed via its official Weibo account that the upcoming Mi Pad 4 could be the first of its Mi Pad series to sport the AI unlock, and if that pans out, then users of the upcoming device would only just have to gaze at their tablet in order to get their units unlocked. While this is something exciting, it should be noted that the feature which relies on the front facing camera may not be as secured as theĀ Find X’sĀ front-facingĀ 3DĀ camera, and theĀ 3D module found in some other devices.
