At the Xiaomi 14 Ultra launch event, the company unveiled a new wireless charger with an extensive name - the Xiaomi 80W Lift-type Air-cooled Wireless Charging Set. Priced at ¥499 (~$70), this combo set includes an 80W Wireless Charger, 120W Power Adapter, and a 6A USB Type-C Cable.
Compatibility and Speeds
The wireless charger is designed to be compatible with all Qi-supported devices, although higher charging speeds are specifically optimized for Xiaomi smartphones. The newly introduced Xiaomi 14 Ultra can achieve a rapid charging speed of 80W, allowing the handset's battery to reach full capacity in just 49 minutes.
Charging Limitations
While Xiaomi devices can benefit from the full 80W charging speed, iPhones are restricted to 7.5W charging rates, and Samsung flagships are limited to 10W charging speeds.
Unique Design Features
As indicated by its name, the charger is a lift-type device, requiring phones to be positioned vertically for charging. Dual coils within the charger enable faster charging rates, while a built-in cooling fan helps maintain optimal thermal conditions, operating silently during use.
The Xiaomi 80W Lift-type Air-cooled Wireless Charging Set is currently available for purchase in China through various platforms. However, details regarding a potential global release for this product remain undisclosed.
