This morning, Xiaomi officially confirmed that they have created a new wireless charging technology that can charge phones (wirelessly) at 80W for the first time, breaking global mobile phone wireless charging records.
Xiaomi claimed that this new wireless charging technology could charge half of a 4000mAh battery in just 8 minutes, and a full charge will take 19 minutes. This is also the third technological breakthrough from Xiaomi’s wireless charging team this year.
Xiaomi has customized a more efficient wireless charging architecture and chip, independently designed a composite coil system, and adopted MTW multi-pole fast-charging batteries, dual 6C series cells, and several acceleration technologies, such as multi-level converter control and MiFC fast charging.
The wireless charging base uses a high-speed silent fan, charging fast and low heat. At the same time, it can still maintain more than 90% of the effective capacity after 800 complete charging and discharging without sacrificing battery health.
Currently, the Xiaomi Mi 10 Commemorative Edition is one of the smartphones that supports the highest wireless charging speed (50W) ever and is available in the market.
As per information revealed by Xiaomi yesterday, the wireless charging of Xiaomi mobile phones has been improved from 7.5 watts to 50 watts in August 2020 and to 80 watts today, which is a considerable improvement.
- March 2018: Xiaomi MIX 2S 7.5W
- October 2018: Xiaomi MIX 3 10W
- February 2019: Mi 9 20W
- September 2019: Mi 9 Pro 30W
- March 2020: Technical pre-research 40W
- August 2020: Mi 10 Extreme Commemorative Edition 50W
The 80-watt wireless charging technology has been officially confirmed, but it has not yet been revealed which devices will support it. It took only two months for Xiaomi to build more fast (80W) wireless charging technology after 50W charging.
