Xiaomi shows off phone that can charge to 100% in 8 minutes

Xiaomi's at it again: The company's new fast charging technology can get a smartphone from 0 to 100 percent battery in less than 8 minutes. 

The 200W wired charging tech, used on a modified Xiaomi MI 11 Pro with a 4,000mAh battery, gets the phone from 0-10% in just 44 seconds. The phone gets to 50% in 3 minutes, and it's fully charged in 7:57 minutes. 

In a YouTube video (below), Xiaomi also showcased its 120W wireless charging tech, which gets a smartphone with a 4,000mAh battery from 0 to 100 percent battery in 15 minutes. 

Xiaomi's been showcasing increasingly faster charging tech year after year. In October last year, the company showed off its 80W wireless charging tech which got a phone from 0 to 100 percent in 19 minutes. 

There's no word on when, exactly, the new tech will make its way into a Xiaomi phone you can actually buy. For reference, the regular Xiaomi Mi 11 has 55 wired charging and 50W wireless charging. 

Increasingly faster charging is slowly being implemented in widely available smartphones, but there are limits as to how fast you can charge a battery, as more power means more generated heat and, potentially, quicker battery degradation.

  8. If Google is pulling out all the stops making the Pixel 6 (Pro at least) a flagship phone, it'd be nice to see them use the new 2.1 USB-C standard to offer similar... Maybe tweak the Pixel Stand to offer faster charge times to (and a stand for the Watch)

    Though the standard may not have been finalized in time for Google to add it into their phone this year.

  9. But how long should we expect the battery itself to last before it can stop holding effective charge? These super fast charging speeds must have consequences right?

  11. It’s a relief to some of us. The market needs batteries which last longer. In the future we shouldn’t be charging phones now and again.

  12. USB PD could do 100W last year, this year they increased it to 240W

  13. Everyone knows regular batteries that top out at handling 20W charging give 300-400 charging cycles before they start to degrade.
    Xiaomi already demonstrated how their batteries capable of handling 55W or 65W charging give 600-800 charge cycles before they start to degrade. Same is the case for Oppo.
    Independent tests have confirmed this.

    1. battery degradations with fast chargers are non existent.

      they only degrade when used a lot, or for years.
      fast chargers don't degrade battery, keep your mysterious myths to yourself.

  15. I'd rather take 5000-6000mah battery with 5-10 watt charging over this.

  16. Can't wait to see galaxy note 7 v2

  17. That's called innovation. Samsung and Apple still stuck at below 25W for their flagship

  18. Wow. Amazing 8 minutes only for charging speed. How about temperature during charging? Charging mi 10 ultra with 120w charger is very hot to touch. Now with 200w charger?

  19. Truly explosive feature.

    I wonder if the screen and body will also be roasted, apart from the battery.
