Xiaomi is developing a 7500 mAh battery with 100W charging power

Xiaomi was once the first company to release a smartphone with more than 200 watts of wired charging power, but now it’s shifting its focus to building higher-capacity batteries, instead of chasing the dwindling benefits of ever-higher charging speeds.

At the time, Xiaomi was the first company to release a smartphone with more than 200 watts of wired charging power.

The Chinese manufacturer is developing technology that would allow a 7,000mAh battery with 120W charging or a 7,500mAh battery with 100W charging to be installed in a smartphone, Digital Chat Station reported on its Weibo channel.

Xiaomi is just one of many companies giving up high speeds for better battery capacity. Honor, vivo and OnePlus are also moving to silicon-carbon cells, which offer higher energy density but not necessarily the fastest charging.
