More and more Spaniards are looking for a good external battery, which complements the one their smartphone already has and allows them to continue using it for more hours. Industry promises of longer battery life haven't been kept, but at least we can say goodbye to battery issues with the latest Android news.
Although the capacity of mobile batteries is not increasing at the expected rate, we at least have a simple solution, with external batteries; They are increasingly reliable and efficient, without sacrificing portability or functionality. Xiaomi's latest launch in Europe demonstrates this, and we hope that it will now become indispensable for users, both of Xiaomi phones and other devices.
We are talking about the new Xiaomi Power Bank 10000 mAh with integrated cable; a new model with a more modern and minimalist design, with colors that better adapt to the company's cell phones. As its name suggests, the main feature of this external battery is found in the integrated cable; Therefore, we do not need to carry a separate cable to charge our devices, with all the inconvenience and risk of loss that this entails. With this device we have the battery and the cable, all in one.
The cable integrated into this battery is capable of supporting a 22.5W bi-directional charging; This means that we can use it both to charge our mobile battery and for the external battery itself, simply by connecting it to a power adapter. The device will automatically detect whether it needs to supply or receive power.
In addition to the integrated cable, this battery also has two ports, allowing charge three devices simultaneously. Concretely, we have a 22.5 W USB-C port, which also allows bidirectional charging, in addition to a 22.5 W USB-A port, but which only allows fast charging of our devices.
With a power of 22.5 W, Xiaomi claims that the charging time is reduced compared to a conventional charger, with the Xiaomi 13 recovering 100% of the energy in 1.2 hours, and reaching 56% charge in an iPhone 14 after just 30 minutes. However, it also has a low current modewhich is activated by pressing the button twice to check the charge, and which is more suitable for devices with low charge such as headphones or bracelets.
The 10,000 mAh capacity of this battery allows us to recharge our devices several times. Concretely, according to the company, we can recharge a Xiaomi 13 1.7 times, an iPhone 14 2 times and a Nintendo Switch 1.1 times. Xiaomi boasts of various security measuressuch as thermal protection, short circuit protection, input overvoltage protection, and overdischarge and overcharge protection.
In addition to the 10,000 mAh model already available, Xiaomi is also preparing the launch in Europe of a new 20,000 mAh model; Besides the capacity, the big difference is the maximum charging power, which is now 33W.
