Xiaomi has launched a new charger in China called Mi GaN Charger 65W 1A1C. As the name suggests, the power adapter uses Gallium Nitride (GaN) instead of silicon. Thus, it is smaller in size when compared to regular 65W chargers. Let’s take a look at its entire specs, features, price, availability, and the meaning of ‘1A1C’ in its name.
Xiaomi Mi GaN Charger 65W 1A1C Specifications and Features
The newly released Xiaomi Mi GaN Charger 65W 1A1C is a new version of the original Mi GaN Charger 65W from last year. Therefore, their model numbers only differ by a single digit. The former bears the model number AD652G, whereas the latter is identified as AD65G.
In fact, both of them have an identical price tag. The only major difference between the two is the number of ports. The older model has a single USB Type-C port. On the other hand, the new model comes with two ports – USB Type-A and USB Type-C. Hence, its name includes the tag ‘1A1C.
The charger supports the USB PD (Power Delivery) standard. So it can be used to charge a wide variety of products, including smartphones, laptops, tablets, handheld gaming consoles, and accessories from various brands.
The USB Type-A port can only support up to 18W. However, the USB Type-C port maxes at 65W. When both the ports are in use, the output rate of the Type-C port drops to 45W, but the Type-A port continues to provide 18W.
Last but not least, the Xiaomi Mi GaN Charger 65W 1A1C measures 31 x 31 x 71.8mm in dimensions, features a foldable pin, comes in a single white color option, and ships with a 1.5m USB Type-C to USB Type-C cable which can withhold up to 5A current.
Xiaomi Mi GaN Charger 65W 1A1C Price and Availability
The Xiaomi Mi GaN Charger 65W 1A1C is priced at ¥149 ($23) in China. It is already up for sale on Xiaomi’s official website. The price of this charger is exactly the same as that of the original Mi GaN Charger 65W from last year.
As of now, there’s no official word from the company regarding the availability of this product outside mainland China. But we can expect Xiaomi to release it in select global markets like the original model.
