Some upcoming realme phones will support either 80W or 150W charging speeds, with the latter making use of the same 160W charging brick that will be used by OPPO, Digital Chat Station has revealed through a post on Weibo.
The highest-rated charging smartphones on the market right now peak out at 120W, capable of filling up 4,000 to 5,000mAh batteries in just 15 minutes or so. All brands currently capable of this are Chinese with some of them being Xiaomi, iQOO, and OPPO.
One of the known upcoming offerings with support for 120W+ charging is the REDMAGIC 7 Pro. It features 135W super flash charging and comes with a 165W gallium nitride charger. The 5,000mAh unit in the phone can be filled up to 100% in just 15 minutes.
In the Android camp, companies like realme, Xiaomi, and nubia have continued to smoke the competition. The iPhone 13 series only supports up to 29W charging while Samsung’s fastest charging phone tolerates no further than 45W.
Aforementioned fast charging freaks are also already working on 200W charging solutions. Xiaomi’s 200W charging speed demonstration for the Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro earlier showed that the solution could charge the phone’s entire 4,000mAh battery in under 8 minutes. Commercial release of the tech is still likely several months away though.
