The Hypercharge Tech Topples Oppo’s Record
Oppo, another Chinese smartphone brand, has also been equally innovative in fast-charging technology. In 2020 it drew headlines with the introduction of fast chargers that was tremendously fast for the time.
Oppo announced its 65W AirVOOC wireless charger that can charge a 4,000mAh battery in 31 minutes. The company also announced a 125W flash charger which takes the same capacity battery in 20 minutes.
However, Xiaomi’s fast chargers powered by its hypercharge technology leapfrogs Oppo’s by a gulf.

How Will It Work In Real Life?
Xiaomi demonstrated its hypercharge tech as part of a promotion on its smartphones. The company was certainly prepared for its desired results and succeeded but how will it work in real life? Xiaomi has kept it mum about how they are going to implement the hypercharge technology on smartphones.
It may take a certain while before Xiaomi brings it to mass usage with complete test and trial across more devices to ensure promised results.
But we can also take the ultra-fast charge technology with a grain of salt. In real life situation, such fast charging technology may not be fully compatible with smartphones. They might result in heat and lead to faster battery degradation. It may also comprise the longevity of the battery life itself.

But only time will tell how the technology will be executed. Xiaomi is certainly smart enough to put all their groundwork in place before they launch the ‘hypercharge’ chargers in the mass market.
