100% battery in just 8 minutes: Xiaomi showcases 200W ‘HyperCharge’ tech

Xiaomi on Monday demonstrated its latest fast charging technology. The company claims its new technology fully charged a Mi 11 Pro (custom build) with a 4,000mAh battery in just 8 minutes using a 200W wired “HyperCharge”. The company adds the phone can get fully charged in 15 minutes with 120W wireless charging. Xiaomi says the technology has set a new world record for both wired and wireless charging.

As The Verge points out, charging speeds and capacity are the new areas where Chinese handset companies are competing with each other. Xiaomi has been one of the top players in this regard. Just a couple of years ago, the company showcased a 100W charging technology that could charge a 4,000mAh battery in just 17 minutes.
