We put Xiaomi's Mi 11i HyperCharge through intensive testing to see how its 120-watt fast charging technology performs at different stress levels.

The Xiaomi Mi 11i HyperCharge is a stellar mid-range phone that comes with a staggering 120-watt fast charging speed. To put that in perspective, that’s about five times as fast as the Galaxy S21 and six times faster than the iPhone 13. Naturally, we had to put it to the test to see if it lives up to these lofty expectations.

Disclaimer: These tests were performed in winters with an ambient temperature of about 18 Celsius . Heat is generated while charging due to energy losses and that, in turn, slows down charging. So, our test may have different results in warmer weather. Note, the green curve in the graphs below represents the change in battery level over time while the yellow curve represents the change in temperature over time. The Y-axis on the left denotes battery levels while the one on the right denotes temperature in Celcius.

In terms of the time taken by the Mi 11i HyperCharge to top up the battery, it goes from 5% to 90% capacity in 16 minutes, taking an extra minute as compared to the previous test. Taking five additional minutes to reach 100%, the Mi 11i HyperCharge completes a battery charge cycle in 21 minutes. In terms of the time taken, the Mi 11i HyperCharge shoots from 5% to 90% in about 18 minutes and reaches the 100% mark in a few seconds short of 22 minutes. That one more minute from our last test — and two more from the first one — but we would be nitpicking by actually treating it as slow.Charging speed gaming With 120W superfast charging on the Mi 11i HyperCharge, we expect many users to leverage the safeguards put in place by Xiaomi to avoid overheating of the smartphones.

Unlike the previous three scenarios where the charging curve was nearly straight , the charging rate begins to fall right as the phone hits its peak temperature. This is possibly a preventive measure to avoid excessive heat generation within the charging circuit. The reduced charging rate translates to a longer charging period, with the Mi 11i HyperCharge taking nearly 26 minutes to reach the 90% mark and another five minutes to rake up the remaining charge to complete charging.
