Redmi, the sub-brand of Xiaomi, launched the Redmi Power Bank in China in June 2019. Eight months later, this power accessory finally made its way to the Indian shores in February 2020. Almost one and a half years since its debut in the country, the product has achieved a major milestone in the region.

According to the official Redmi India Twitter account, the brand has managed to sell over a million units of Redmi Power Banks in India since its launch. For those unaware, this battery pack comes in two variants (10,000mAh, 20,000mAh) and they are slightly cheaper than the Mi Power Banks.

The Redmi Power Bank 10,000mAh and Redmi Power Bank 20,000mAh currently retail for ₹799 and ₹1,499 respectively. Interestingly, they are still selling at their launch price even more than a year later. They can be bought in either White or Black color options.

The Redmi Power Banks are assembled in India, just like the Mi Power Banks. In November 2020, Xiaomi revealed that it had sold more than 10 million ‘Made in India’ Mi Power Banks to date.

Usually, whenever Xiaomi announces any achievement of a product, it releases a successor to that product. Hence, there’s a chance that the firm could announce new Redmi Power Bank models in the coming days.

Redmi has not launched any new Power Bank other than the original models in China. Hence, if Xiaomi is set to debut a new one in India, it could be a rebadged version of one of the many Mi Power Banks sold in China.

It was only a matter of time before Redmi launched its first power bank. Today, the company has announced not one but two Redmi-branded power banks.

The two power banks are the Redmi Power Bank 10000mAh (PB100LZM) and the Redmi Power Bank 20000mAh (PB200LZM). Both come in white, have dual output ports (USB-A), dual input ports (MicroUSB and USB Type-C), and lithium-ion polymer batteries.

Redmi Power Bank 10000mAh

The Redmi Power Bank 10000mAh can charge the Redmi Note 7 1.75 times, the Mi 9 2.4 times, the Redmi K20 1.75 times, and the iPhone XS 2.3 times. The maximum power rating for the input port is 5V 2.1A while the output port has a rating of 5.1V 2.4A. There is no support for 18W fast charging input or output.

The power bank measures 150.5 x 73.6 x 15.1mm, has nine different protection including low voltage and a reset function. It can also charge low power devices like the Mi Band and will power small items like a portable fan or LED lamp.

The Redmi Power Bank 10000mAh has a ¥59 (~$9) price tag.

Redmi Power Bank 20000mAh

The Redmi Power Bank 20000mAh is near twice the thickness of the 10000mAh version at 27.3mm but the length and width are the same.

It has the same number of input and output ports but supports 5V 2A, 9V 2.1A, and 12V 1.5A input charging. It also supports 5.1V 2.4A, 9V 2A, and 12V 1.5A output charging. This means it supports 18W fast charging input and output.

The Redmi Power Bank 20000mAh can charge the Redmi Note 7 3.5 times, the Mi 9 5.3 times, the Redmi K20 3.5 times, and the iPhone XS 4.8 times. It also has a Li-ion polymer battery and several protection features.

The power bank has a price tag of ¥99 (~$15). Just Like the 10000mAh version, it will go on sale on July 23 on Mi.com.

We expect the power banks will also be announced outside China soon.
