Xiaomi 120w fast charging solution does not affect battery life
Fast charging is one of the fastest growing areas in China’s smartphone industry. That’s why we hear about new solutions every few months. In this case, the upcoming Xiaomi Mi 11T Pro, which will be launched this month, will also support 120W fast charging. The manufacturer has not provided any information about the charging time of the device. For reference, the Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra launched last year also supports 120 W fast charging. And it only takes 23 minutes to fully charge the battery. Xiaomi 120w fast charging solution does not affect battery life. The general reaction from users of such fast charging technology will definitely have a negative impact on battery life. They also believe there will be security issues or both. In response, The Verge interviewed Xiaomi’s head of international communications and global spokesman Daniel DeJarles to discuss the company’s efforts in fast charging technology and what people outside of China can expect from the Xiaomi Mi 11T Pro. HOW DOES RAPID 120W WORK? First, how does it work? “It’s like having two different gas inlets in your car and two separate tanks.” So it works like any other powerful fast charging technology. “Instead of filling one side at a certain slow pace, you can now fill two sides at once. All of this is done on the side of the phone, the 120 watt charger and instead of trying to squeeze the maximum five volts, one channel splits it into two, three, four channels. This allowed us to step up everything – all done with 20 amps. ” In terms of battery life, Daniel says it will offer an almost identical experience to other traditional cell phone batteries. He said, “We tested it really, really hard,” he said. “Overall, with the batteries we tested at this charge rate, you still have 80 percent battery condition after 800 charge cycles. Now 20 percent might sound like “oh wow, I lost 20 percent”, that’s pretty standard with all charging technologies. 800 cycles, about two years for most people. So it’s pretty solid. “ In comparison, Apple claims that the iPhone’s lithium-ion battery “can hold 80% of its original capacity for 500 full charges”. If the Xiaomi test data is correct, the battery life should match the normal characteristics. Must Read: TPL Trakker and Dukan.pk Come Together To Serve Pakistan When asked if using a slower charger would further improve battery health, Daniel said, “There is a relatively small difference between the two. Of course, the optimal situation is to use a slower charger if you charge overnight and a faster charger for a faster situation. “ SECURITY Speaking of security issues, Daniel said there were many tests carried out, including third parties. In addition, the device itself contains 34 different battery protection functions. “Overall, that is one of the reasons why this technology is now on the world market. We want to make sure that we comply with all regulations, but are also very safe for everyone. “ But is such a charging system really harmless? For example, can a phone that uses more traditional charging methods be thinner or can accommodate a larger battery? According to Daniel, there are no bad effects. However, the actual charger is larger than average. Xiaomi believes that its fast charging technology will continue to exist and there may still be room for improvement. For example, earlier this year the company presented a prototype 200W fast charging system. It charges a 4000 mAh battery in 8 minutes. Daniel simply said: “Whether this will come in a commercial product or not, you will have to wait and see.” The Verge also asked whether consumers in Xiaomi’s global marketplace would see this as a big selling point. Daniel said, “I think our big goal here is that there are a lot of people who think that fast charging is a foreign function. But there are also many people who find this a big plus. You only notice how good everyday life is when you have to run through the door to catch a taxi in five minutes and your phone doesn’t charge properly. ” Reuters
Vivo, OPPO and Xiaomi Partner to Bring New Wireless File Transfer System to Global Consumers
Vivo, OPPO and Xiaomi have established the “Peer-to-Peer Transmission Alliance” to provide users with an unparalleled file transfer experience. The new wireless file transfer system will allow consumers of these three brands to easily transfer files between their mobile devices without the need for any third-party applications or network data, supporting a wide range of files, including photos, videos, music, documents and more. The move is also in anticipation of 5G adoption, where the average file sizes are expected to significantly increase with the availability of varied and richer content. “Vivo, OPPO and Xiaomi all share a strong user base, and such partnership will benefit even more consumers globally. For vivo, this partnership reinforces our commitment to bringing a fast, secure, first-in-class mobile experience by making it even easier for our users to share files with their friends wirelessly.

Must Read: Instagram starts checking photos and videos on the platform to combat misinformation Instant and stable connection with low power consumption The wireless file transfer system provides a streamlined mobile experience which does not require internet connection. It uses Bluetooth for fast pairing and WiFi P2P (Peer to Peer) technology for the data transfer, bringing together an instant, stable and high-speed connection between devices, as well as low power consumption. This technology delivers an average transfer speed of 20MB/s. Also, the WiFi P2P technology does not interrupt the WiFi connection, meaning users remain connected and can continue their activities on the device during the file transfer. Users just need to turn on their WiFi and Bluetooth, or turn on the function under “menu”, then select the files that they wish to share. If the other party also has the function turned on, an icon will pop-up to notify the user. Once confirmed, the selected files will be transferred. Customer-first approach to drive healthy industry development The Peer-to-Peer Transmission Alliance is a collective commitment between vivo, OPPO and Xiaomi to drive the next generation of mobile experience. Together, the three brands will continue to openly collaborate to deliver new technological breakthroughs. The Alliance is also looking forward to welcoming more brands to participate and expand the ecosystem in the future. Source
Sony obviously can’t follow the image sensor search
If there are common denominators for most devices this year, then they all have multiple cameras. This isn’t just about dual cameras: OEMs like OnePlus, Nokia, Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi and even Apple have produced phones that have triple, quad, or even pent camera settings. Most cameras are not always associated with a better camera experience, but this frees up more features and flexibility that normally cannot be drawn properly by the camera. This flexibility drives OEMs to install multiple cameras, which increases the demand for different image sensors. That is why Sony’s semiconductor division is really ready – in such a way that it doesn’t seem to keep up with the ever-increasing demand. Sony obviously can’t follow the image sensor search. Terushi Shimizu, head of Sony’s semiconductor division, said: “Assessing the current situation, even after investing in this capacity expansion, it might still not be enough.” regarding the production capacity of their camera sensors and that “we must apologize to customers because we cannot do enough”, as reported by Bloomberg. The reason is the demand for their cameras and the number of smartphones produced in series with multiple sensor arrays. Sony is the main provider of camera sensors for most smartphone manufacturers, and most of the devices we use today have at least one sensor from Sony. Although the demand for smartphones has been marketed throughout the world, the demand for image sensors continues to increase. Sony even works around the clock to produce image sensors on demand and continually manages its chip factories during the holidays to meet demand. But 24-hour surgery is also inadequate. Demand has grown so rapidly that semiconductors have become Sony’s second most profitable business, only defeated by PlayStation.
