With the 11T Pro, Xiaomi has launched a new high-end smartphone that has surprisingly good technical features and does not cost a lot of money. In the area of charging speed, however, there is a prejudice that Xiaomi finally does away with.
Xiaomi 11T Pro: 120 watt charge hardly harms the battery
More and more smartphone manufacturers are installing more powerful fast charging functions in their devices. Xiaomi is one of the innovation drivers. The recently introduced Xiaomi 11T Pro charges from 0 to 100 percent in just a few minutes with the 120 watt fast charging function. Precisely this fast charging is supposed to cause massive damage to the battery – at least that’s what many think. Xiaomi has now explained to The Verge, why this is not the case.
The Chinese manufacturer relies on several of its own technologies that extend the life of the 5,000 mAh battery in the Xiaomi 11T Pro. There are several safety mechanisms that do not overload the energy storage device during fast charging. The temperature plays a major role in this. If this is too high, the battery suffers particularly. To avoid that comes the Dual-cell technology used. With two charging points, more energy can be charged in the same time without the battery breaking into a sweat. At the same time, there is a higher amperage over a longer period of time, which shortens the charging time.
Xiaomi says that the 5,000 mAh battery will last after 800 charge cycles under maximum load with the 120 watt power supply a maximum of 20 percent of the capacity loses. For comparison: Apple’s iPhone charges considerably more slowly and is said to lose the same capacity in just 500 charging cycles. Normally, the loss of performance in the life of the Xiaomi 11T Pro should hardly be noticeable, even if you use the 120 watt charging technology every day.
