Question about Xiaomi Redmi Pad Pro

There is an optional smart pen for data entry for this tablet. Can a pen from a third-party supplier (e.g. pen for Samsung Galaxy S24 or Lenovo tablet) be used instead of the original xiaomi smart pen?

The Xiaomi Redmi Pad Pro supports the Xiaomi Focus Pen as the official stylus.
There is no information on whether it is also compatible with other suppliers.

Whether a stylus from a third-party provider such as the Samsung S Pen or a Lenovo stylus is compatible depends on the technology used:

- Samsung S Pen uses Wacom EMR technology, which is mostly not compatible with Xiaomi tablets.
- Lenovo pens use different technologies (AES, EMR or USI), which also do not necessarily work with Xiaomi devices.

If you want to use a third-party pen, you should look for USI or passive capacitive pens, as some Xiaomi devices may work with them. However, a full-fledged replacement with pressure sensitivity and tilt detection is unlikely.

Recommendation:
For the best functionality, you should use the Xiaomi Focus Pen.

I don't know exactly. I don't use a pen for this tablet. But I can well imagine that it could also work with a pen from a third-party supplier.
Scrolling with my finger works perfectly.
I even tap a password on the display with my finger and paste it (from the clipboard) into the corresponding field!
