Xiaomi is reportedly testing various battery and charging configurations for its upcoming smartphones, according to renowned tipster Digital Chat Station.
The most notable among these is a 7,500mAh battery paired with 100W fast charging, capable of fully charging in 63 minutes.
The Chinese tech giant is considering several other combinations, including:
- 5,000mAh battery with 120W charging (18-minute full charge)
- 5,500mAh battery with 100W charging (34-minute full charge)
- 6,000mAh battery with 120W charging (30-minute full charge)
- 6,500mAh battery with 100W charging (49-minute full charge)
- 7,000mAh battery with 120W charging (40-minute full charge)
This move represents a shift in smartphone battery trends, with manufacturers now focusing on larger silicon batteries rather than lithium-ion types, while maintaining fast charging capabilities around 100W.
Several recent Xiaomi models, including the Redmi Note 13 Pro series and Xiaomi 13T Pro, already feature 5,000mAh batteries with 120W charging. The upcoming Xiaomi 15 series is rumored to incorporate silicon batteries of around 6,000mAh, with the 15 Ultra potentially boasting a 6,200mAh battery.
As phone manufacturers continue to develop silicon batteries with increased energy densities, we may soon see smartphones equipped with 7,500mAh batteries, a capacity typically associated with entry-level tablets.
