Introduction: Why wireless charging is important for Xiaomi
Wireless charging has long ceased to be an exclusive feature of flagship smartphones β it is now available even in some budget models. Xiaomi, as one of the market leaders, is actively implementing this technology in its devices, but not all models are equipped with it. If you are planning a purchase or just want to figure out whether your smartphone Xiaomi supports Qi charging, this guide will help to avoid errors.
In this article, we will not only list all the current models with wireless charging, but also reveal the nuances: charging speed, compatibility with charging stations, firmware features and even hidden features that are not mentioned in the official specifications. For example, did you know that some Xiaomi devices support reverse wireless charging for accessories? or that speeds may vary depending on the region of sale?
Weβll also answer some of the most common questions: why wireless charging might not work on your Redmi or POCO, which accessories are worth buying and which are bypassing. If youβre already using a Qi smartphone, check if youβre missing out on opportunities to speed up the process or save money on your original charger.
Official list of Xiaomi smartphones with wireless charging (2026)
Letβs start with the current list of models that are guaranteed to support wireless charging according to the Qi standard. It is important to understand that Xiaomi divides this feature into two categories:
- π Standard wireless charging (up to 30 watts) β to recharge the smartphone itself.
- π Reverse wireless charging (up to 10 W) β the ability to charge other devices (headphones, watches) from the back of the smartphone.
Below is a table with models sorted by series and year of release. Note: some devices only support charging with original Xiaomi accessories (such as the Mi Wireless Charging Pad).
| Series | Model | Max. speed (Watt) | Reverse charging | Year of release |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Xiaomi | Xiaomi 14 Pro | 50 W. | 10 Watts. | 2023 |
| Xiaomi | Xiaomi 13 Pro | 50 W. | 10 Watts. | 2022 |
| Xiaomi | Xiaomi 12 Pro | 50 W. | 10 Watts. | 2021 |
| Xiaomi | Xiaomi 11 Pro / Ultra | 67W (11 Ultra only) | 10 Watts. | 2021 |
| Redmi | Redmi K60 Ultra | 30 Watts. | No. | 2023 |
Important: Xiaomi 11 Ultra is the brand's only smartphone with support for 67-watt wireless charging, but this requires a branded Mi 67W Wireless Charging Stand. The remaining models are limited to 50 watts or below.
Why your Xiaomi isnβt charging wirelessly (and how to fix it)
If your smartphone refuses to charge on Qi, the problem may lie in one of three factors:
- Unoriginal accessory β many cheap charging stations do not support high power (for example, 50 watts for Xiaomi 14 Pro).
- Software restrictions β in some regions (for example, India) wireless charging is disabled by default.
- Damaged module β after falls or repairs, the Qi coil may fail.
The first thing to check is the battery settings. Go to Settings β Battery β Wireless charging and make sure the function is activated. If the item is not activated, update the firmware: in older versions of MIUI, the option may have been hidden in the Additional section.
β οΈ Attention: On Xiaomi 12T Pro and Redmi. K50 Pro wireless charging only works with firmware for the global market (EEA). In Chinese versions, the function can be blocked.
If the smartphone detects a charging station but does not start charging, try:
Make sure the station is connected to a 20W+ power supply
Reboot your smartphone
Check the integrity of the back panel (cracks interfere with charging)
Update MIUI to the latest version
Reset the battery settings (Settings β Applications β Application Management β Battery β Reset)
-->
Charging speed: what affects the real performance
The manufacturer specifies a top speed (e.g. 50W for the Xiaomi 13 Pro), but in reality it is often lower.
- π Power supply β for 50-watt charging you need a station with support for Qi EPP power supply of at least 65 W.
- π± Temperature - when heated above 40Β°C smartphone automatically reduces power to 10-15 W.
- π‘οΈ Cover: thick or metal covers can block the signal, optimal thickness up to 3 mm.
- πΆ Background processes β games or video shooting 4K reduce the charging speed by 20-30%.
For a real-speed test, use the AccuBattery app (available on Google Play). Start charging and check the performance in 10 minutes. For example, on the Xiaomi 14 Pro with the original station and 67W power supply, the real speed is ~42-45W at room temperature.
π‘
If your smartphone supports 50 watt charging, but the station only produces 10 watts, try connecting it to another power supply, for example, charging from a laptop (65 watts+) often solves the problem.
Interesting fact: Xiaomi 11 Ultra with 67-watt station charges up to 100% in 39 minutes, but only at temperatures below 35 Β° C. At 40 Β° C, the time increases to 55 minutes - this is prescribed in the firmware for battery protection.
Reverse wireless charging: how to use and what devices are supported
The reverse wireless charging feature allows you to turn your smartphone into a power bank for other gadgets. In Xiaomi, it is available on flagships since the Mi 9 Pro (2019). Current models (Xiaomi 13/14 Pro) support power up to 10 watts, which is enough for:
- π§ Headphones Xiaomi Buds 4 Pro or AirDots 3.
- β Smartwatch Mi Watch S3 or Amazfit GTR 4.
- π± Other smartphones (but very slowly, about 5% per hour).
To activate reverse charging:
- Open Settings β Battery β Reverse wireless charging.
- Place the gadget on the back of the smartphone (the optimal zone is the center of the Xiaomi logo).
- Confirm the start of charging in the pop-up window.
β οΈ Attention: Reverse charging heats up the smartphone. on Xiaomi 12S Ultra with prolonged use of this function, the temperature of the processor can reach 50Β°C, which leads to trottling (decreased productivity).
Lifehack: If you need to charge headphones, but there is no case at hand, put them on the back of the Xiaomi 13 Pro and cover with a thin napkin - this will improve contact and reduce heating.
Wireless charging in budget models: myth or reality?
Until 2023, wireless charging was the preserve of flagships, but that is changing, with the Redmi and POCO lineup featuring Qi-enabled models, albeit with limitations:
