AnTuTu has published its Android tablet performance ranking for October 2026, and the Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro Max takes first place with an average of 5,206,401 points in its 16GB RAM + 1TB storage configuration. That score puts it far ahead of every other Android tablet tested last month.
The October ranking
AnTuTu’s October 2026 Android tablet chart looks like this:
- Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro Max: 5,206,401 points
- iQOO Pad Ultra: 4,847,214 points (about 6.9% below the Xiaomi)
- Lenovo Legion Y700 Infinite: 4,456,991 points
- iQOO Pad Pro: 4,411,103 points
What makes the result stand out is how far ahead the winner is. The runner-up iQOO Pad Ultra comes with a built-in cooling fan and runs a Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 chip, yet it still trails the Xiaomi by more than 350,000 points, and the Xiaomi manages this without any fan. Two things are worth keeping in mind: these are AnTuTu V12 average scores, not single peak runs, and the data comes from China only, so the ranking includes models that are not sold globally.
Second month at number one
This is not a one-off result. The same tablet also topped AnTuTu’s September 2026 tablet ranking with 5,233,432 points, making it two consecutive months at the top of the chart. Xiaomi has separately claimed a score above 5.61 million for the Pad 9 Pro Max, which is higher than AnTuTu’s measured averages; this article uses AnTuTu’s published figures rather than the company’s claim.
The tablet behind the score
The performance comes from the Xiaomi Xring O3 chipset, a 10-core processor built on a 3nm process, paired with 8GB, 12GB or 16GB of RAM and 256GB, 512GB or 1TB of storage. The rest of the hardware is equally flagship-grade: a 13.3-inch LCD display with 3408×2272 resolution, a 3:2 aspect ratio, a 144Hz refresh rate and 1,000 nits of peak brightness. A 12,000mAh battery with 120W wired charging keeps it running, and it carries a 50MP rear camera alongside a 32MP front camera. It runs Android 17 with HyperOS 4. The design is slim and light at 5.67mm thin and 645g, and it supports Wi-Fi 7. A handy extra is the USB-C DP-in port, which lets the tablet work as an external monitor for a laptop.

The Pad 9 Pro Max launched in China on 7 September 2026 and remains China-only for now; Xiaomi has not confirmed any international launch. There is no official Pakistan price and no Pakistan launch date at this time. For reference, the official China prices are CNY 4,799 for the 8GB+256GB version, going up to CNY 7,899 for the 16GB+1TB Matte Glass version.
