For other third-party apps, MIUI for Pad has a function which is like the 平行视界 on Huawei Pads. But it's also not perfect. Like the bilibili, the Chinese niconico/YouTube, the left side always shows the first page of the app, even I open a video from the YouTuber's…
Also, currently the multi-window on MIUI for Pad is not as good as the one on iPad OS
You can't slide the Dock out and slide the icon on dock into a window.
You can only long press the tab in recent tabs to change it into a window.

My friend ask me about the rear camera, here is the 10x zoom result.
(My friend needs to take photos of the blackboard so that he can take notes after class.)

Pic. 1/2 is the Mi Pad 5 Pro
Pic 3/4 is the Mi Pad 5
Pic 5/6 is the Mi 9

Back to the daily typing experience.
It's bad, really bad.

For example, I want to search something in bilibili
Then I click the search bar using the pen
Then I need to type the words with the physical keyboard instead of the pen
You might say that I'm connecting the physical keyboard and it's OK.

So I disconnect it.

Then I click the search bar again using the pen
Then the keyboard pop up and I can't write but only type via the virtual keyboard
I need to switch to handwriting mode manually to write things

I return to the home page and then open bilibili again
This time I click the search bar using my finger
Then the keyboard pop up with handwriting mode instead of typing mode

That's really bad considering that I am using the built-in input method. (And it’s also a Mi Special Edition)

What's more, the accessories?
I don't recommend buying the official physical keyboard.
You can't change the viewing angle
It doesn't have a touchpad
The Contact point is on the side of the Mi Pad, not on the back
(It means if you don't attach it precisely, it won't work)
If you are familiar with the iPad accessories then I can tell you that it looks like Smart Keyboard Folio but connects like Smart Keyboard

What about the Pen?
It costs 349CNY
Not cheap (compare to Huawei M-Pen) but also not expensive (compare to Apple Pencil)
According to the official webpage, it can connect automatically when you attach it to the Pad
But when I test it, it needs to pair manually via Bluetooth, I think it might need an update or I just meet some bugs.

I think it worth buying
(otherwise why you need a tablet, for a big screen mobile gaming or just Netflix?)

I asked the clerk if the tip is sold separately and they told me that there is still no news yet.
I try to unscrewed it and failed.
So....
-349CNY xD

My advice:
If you consider buying a tablet under 3000CNY
I think you can take a look at Mi Pad 5 Pro
If your budget is more tight, Mi Pad 5 is OK

Although Mi Pad 5 is lacking in many aspects than Mi Pad 5 Pro
(Like the display/speaker/SoC/WiFi/RAM speed/camera and other hidden things)
It still provides the most basic functions
I mean, the Mi Pen and the 120Hz refresh rate.

If you want a better software experience (flashing third-party ROM or root or Jailbreaking is not included), the iPad 2020 (or maybe iPad 2021 later in September) is better choice.
If Xiaomi can keep on optimizing the MIUI for Pad that Mi Pad 5 series might be the best choice at this price.
