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.

Further, there is a heart rate sensor as well as blood-oxygen saturation (SpO2) sensor onboard. It also comes with ambient air pressure and elevation sensors. This model also features NFC along with voice control.

There is a decent 420mAH battery under the hood which promises up to 16 days of battery life and which can be fully charged in just 2 hours. It weighs just 32 grams.

The Xiaomi Mi Watch will go on sale in Europe soon and it carries a price tag of €100. It is available in six different strap colours.

The Xiaomi 65W GaN charger adopts gallium nitride technology and comes with 65W fast charging support, providing a maximum charging power of 50W. It can fully charge the Mi 10 Pro is just 45 minutes.

Moreover, the Xiaomi GaN Type-C 65W Charger supports a slew of fast-charging protocols including PD 3.0 and Xiaomi’s fast flash charging. It can charge your iPhone as well. According to Xiaomi, the GaN charger Type-C 65W can charge the iPhone 11 50 percent faster than the original 5W charger.

As compared to a standard adapter for Xiaomi Notebook, the GaN charger Type-C 65W is nearly 48 percent smaller in terms of size as it uses the newfangled semiconductor material GaN i.e. gallium nitride. The interface provides support for intelligent adjustment of output current in various gears and it can charge about 65W for Xiaomi Notebooks, MacBook Pro and a myriad of other high-power devices.

The charger will be available soon and is priced at €30.
