From smartphones to laptops, fast charging technology is still being sought. Huawei announced the HyperCharge 200W charging technology, but industry observers thought it was a publicity stunt for the Mi 11 Pro.

Nevertheless, the NU2205, developed by NuVolta Technologies, a Chinese company specializing in charging design, can output 100W – a new industry record.

With the NuVolta NU2205, Xiaomi is able to fast-charge segmented batteries with dual-cell 4:2 pumps. Accordingly, the Mi 11 Pro’s HyperCharge technology is capable of charging at 200W, similar to what Xiaomi reported for the Mi 11 Pro.

In light of the fact that NuVolta used the Mi 11/11 Pro image, which suggests a collaboration relationship between the two companies, it may have been manufactured by NuVolta for Xiaomi’s HyperCharge 200W charger.

Xiaomi is likely to be the first Chinese company to unveil NuVolta-based fast charging dual-cell technology. Other OEMs could also adopt it.

According to Xiaomi, the HyperCharge could charge batteries from 0% to 100% in roughly 15 minutes. The performance is impressive, although the numbers bandied around are believed to be unreliable. Later reports indicated that the Mi 11 Pro used for the demonstration had a battery capacity of 4,000 mAh, rather than the expected 5,000 mAh capacity, and 800 charging cycles were required to deplete 20% of the battery.
