Wireless charging has long ceased to be an exclusive feature of flagship smartphones β it is now available even in some budget models. However, Xiaomiβs situation with this technology remains ambiguous: the company is actively implementing it in the premium series, but often ignores in the mid- and budget segments. As a result, users face confusion: some models support the Qi standard out of the box, others require additional accessories, and others are completely deprived of this feature.
In this guide, weβll look at which Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO phones are wirelessly charging for 2026, what speeds they support, and what to do if your model isnβt on the list. Weβll focus on nuances like why the Xiaomi 13 Ultra charges faster than the Xiaomi 14, even though both support 50W, and why some Redmi devices require a special back cover. Youβll also find a compatibility table with popular charging stations and answers to frequent questions about the safety and efficiency of the technology.
Which Xiaomi smartphones support wireless charging out of the box?
For starters, the good news is that Xiaomi has been actively introducing wireless charging into its flagship models since 2019, but it remains the prerogative of premium lines such as the Mi (later renamed Xiaomi), the Mix and individual POCO devices. Budget Redmi and most POCO models are left out of this option, with few exceptions.
Below is a full list of smartphones that support wireless charging Qi without additional accessories (data is up to May 2026):
- π± Xiaomi 14 / 14 Pro / 14 Ultra - up 50 W (requires a proprietary station)
- π± Xiaomi 13 / 13 Pro / 13 Ultra - up 50 Watt
- π± Xiaomi 12 / 12 Pro / 12S Ultra - up 50 Watt
- π± Xiaomi 11 / 11 Pro / 11 Ultra - up 67 W (record speed)
- π± Xiaomi Mix 4 - up to 50 watts
- π± Xiaomi Mix Fold 2 / Mix Fold 3 β up to 50 W (folding flagships)
- π± POCO F5 Pro - up to 30 W (single) POCO wirelessly charged)
Note that even if your model is on the list, to achieve a maximum charging speed (for example, 50 watts) will require a branded charging station from Xiaomi. Standard Qi charging at 5-10 watts will work, but much slower.
Models with support for wireless charging through accessories
Some Xiaomi smartphones donβt have a built-in coil for wireless charging, but it can be added with official or third-party accessories, an option thatβs suitable for users who donβt want to change their phone but want to try out the technology.
Here are the models for which certified solutions exist:
- π Xiaomi 12T / 12T Pro β Requires a back cover with a Qi module (sold separately)
- π Redmi K50 Pro / K60 Pro β compatible with magnetic adapters (e.g. from Baseus)
- π POCO X5 Pro β supports universal Qi adapters (speeds up to 10 W)
- π Xiaomi Civi 2 / Civi 3 β you can use thin adhesive modules
Important: the use of non-original accessories can lead to overheating or lower battery capacity. We recommend buying adapters only from proven manufacturers such as Anker, Baseus or Xiaomi.
β οΈ Note: Wireless charging accessories often block access to the NFC-If you are actively using contactless payments, check this detail before buying.
Wireless charging speeds: what do the numbers 50 watts, 30 watts, 10 watts mean?
One of the key characteristics of wireless charging is its power, measured in watts (W), the higher it is, the faster your smartphone will charge, but there are a few nuances:
- 10-15 watts is the standard speed for most Qi charging, suitable for overnight charging, but may seem slow during the day.
- 30W is the middle ground for most flagships, charging Xiaomi 13 or POCO F5 Pro up to 50% in 30-40 minutes.
- 50W and above is a top speed only available with Xiaomi branded stations. For example, the Xiaomi 14 Pro charges up to 100% in 40 minutes.
It is important to understand that the real speed depends not only on the charging power, but also on:
- π Ambient temperatures (at >30Β°C. Speed is automatically reduced)
- π Battery states (wear-out batteries charge more slowly)
- π Quality of cable and power supply (cheap adapters may not give the declared power)
| Smartphone model | Max. speed (Watt) | Charging time 0-100% | Need a branded station? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Xiaomi 14 Ultra | 50 W. | ~40 minutes | Yes. |
| Xiaomi 13 Pro | 50 W. | ~45 minutes | Yes. |
| POCO F5 Pro | 30 Watts. | ~60 minutes | No. |
| Redmi K60 Pro (with adapter) | 10 Watts. | ~120 min | No. |
Critical nuance: Xiaomi smartphones with support for 50 W wireless charging require the use of exclusively branded Xiaomi Mi Wireless Charging Stand (CPL04ZM article). Charges of other brands, even with the declared power of 50 W, will work at a maximum of 10-15 W.
How to check if your Xiaomi supports wireless charging?
If youβre not sure if your smartphone has a built-in Qi coil, there are a few ways to check it out:
- Xiaomi official website: Find your model page under Characteristics β Battery. Look for Qi Wireless Charging.
- Phone settings: go to Settings β About Phone β All specs β Battery. If there is support, there will be the corresponding bar.
- The practical test: put your phone on any Qi charger, and if it starts charging (even slowly), it means that the module is there.
- Diagnostic applications: for example, AIDA64 (Battery β Charging capabilities)
If none of the methods worked, but you are sure that the model should support wireless charging, check:
- π οΈ Back cover integrity β cracks or bloating can block the signal.
- π§ Power saving settings β some modes turn off fast charging.
- π± The firmware version - on older versions MIUI The wireless charging system may not work properly.

What wireless charging to choose for Xiaomi?
The choice of charger depends on your smartphone model and budget, and here are the key criteria:
- Power: for flagships (Xiaomi 13/14) take a station of 50 watts, for the rest will be enough 10-15 watts.
- Type: πͺ Stand β convenient for use on a table (e.g. Xiaomi Mi Wireless Charging Stand). ποΈ Pad β flat charger for night use (e.g. Anker PowerWave). π Car - attached to a ventilation grille or torpedo.
Additional functions:
Belkin BoostCharge Pro 3-in-1
For owners of Xiaomi 11/12/13/14, the best choice will be Xiaomi Mi Wireless Charging Stand 50W (CPL04ZM article). It supports top speed and has a built-in fan for cooling. For budget models (POCO F5 Pro, Redmi with an adapter), any certified Qi-charging at 10-15 watts, such as the Baseus PPWLM-05, will suit.
β οΈ Attention: Cheap nameless charges can damage the battery due to unstable voltage.Buy Qi-certified or Made for Xiaomi-certified devices.

If your Xiaomi supports 50 watts but warms up while charging, try removing the case - this will improve heat sink and increase speed.
Frequent problems and their solutions
Even if your smartphone supports wireless charging, you may encounter difficulties.
