Redmi introduces 300-watt charging technology for smartphones, promises a full battery in less than 5 minutes
Redmi is now entering the fast charging arena with the ridiculous 300-watt charging technology for smartphones. Xiaomi’s sub-brand has shared a teaser of this new feature for its devices that should hit the market in the near future. With this charging speed, Redmi says you can get a fully charged phone in less than 5 minutes, which is absolutely insane.
The company also has a video to prove its claim, showing us how the Redmi phone manages to pull this off. Redmi says that it used the Redmi Note 12 Discovery version for testing, which contains a 4100 mAh battery.
The charging technology used in the phone gives you 50 percent juice in 2 minutes 11 seconds and it manages to touch the full level in less than 5 minutes as claimed by the company.
Interestingly, in Redmi’s video showing this charging technology, there is a charging reader on the left side of the screen, and we noticed that the phone seems to reach its maximum power at 290W, which isn’t bad either.
It’s also clear that most of the fast charging happens up to 65%, and then we saw the charging speed drop to 100 watts, probably to preserve battery health for long charging periods. Redmi hasn’t talked about its plans to launch this charging technology, so until then, Realme 240W charging has a leading brand in this arena.
But it’s hard to argue that these download speeds are literally getting out of hand. And we also notice that the faster the charging speed, the lower the battery capacity.
We hope that offering a faster charging speed doesn’t mean compromising on battery life. And yes, how soon before we see a 400W charging speed that goes from 0 to 100 in about 2 minutes (faster than you can do Maggi)? Not understating it at all.
