Xiaomi announces industry-leading 80W wireless charging

Beijing, Oct 19 : Chinese brand Xiaomi on Monday said it is working on the industry-leading wireless technology that will fully charge the battery in less than 20 minutes.
The 80W Mi wireless charging technology is a major leap forward from Xiaomi’s 30W wireless charging technology introduced last year.
“The technology is capable of filling a 4,000mAh battery to 10 per cent in 1 minute, 50 per cent in 8 minutes and 100 per cent in just 19 minutes,” the company said in a statement.
For comparison, 30W Mi wireless charging technology from 2019 was capable of charging a similar battery to 50 per cent in about 25 minutes, and 100 per cent in 69 minutes.
The introduction of the 80W Mi wireless charging technology is expected to set a new benchmark not only in the area of wireless charging but in charging as a whole.
“Xiaomi has been spearheading this trend by recognizing the importance of battery life and faster charging for the future development of smartphones,” the company said.
