Wireless charging has become an integral part of premium smartphones, but not all manufacturers implement it in budget models. Xiaomi is one of the few brands that offers this technology even in mid-range devices. However, it is not so easy to figure out which phones support the Qi standard: information is scattered across different sources, and marketing materials are often silent about the nuances (for example, charging power or the need to buy a branded station).
In this article, weβve compiled a full up-to-date list of Xiaomiβs wireless charging smartphones for 2026, from Xiaomiβs flagship 14 Ultra to the more affordable Redmi and POCO. Youβll learn not only the names of the models, but also their technical features (charging power, backward-charging compatibility), as well as hidden limitations that the manufacturer doesnβt always warn about, such as why some phones only charge wirelessly at Xiaomiβs original stations, while others work with any Qi devices.
Why not all Xiaomi smartphones support wireless charging
Qi wireless charging technology requires additional hardware components: an inductor coil, a power controller and a special screen that does not block the magnetic field. This increases the cost of the device, so Xiaomi implements it only in:
- π± Flagship Series (Xiaomi) 12/13/14, Mix Fold β here wireless charging has become the standard with 2020 year-end.
- π° Premium Subbrands (Black Shark for Gamers, POCO F4 GT) β where the high price justifies the additional functions.
- π Some experimental models (e.g. Redmi) K50 Ultra, where the manufacturer tests demand.
In the low-end lineups (Redmi Note, POCO M/X), wireless charging is extremely rare, replacing it with fast wired charging (33W-120W), which is cheaper to produce, with the exception of special editions, such as the Redmi K60 Pro for the Chinese market.
β οΈ Note: If the phone features wireless charging support but no power is specified, it is most likely the base version of the phone. 5Wβ10W. For full speed (20Wβ50W) Requires a branded station from Xiaomi.
List of Xiaomi smartphones with wireless charging (2026)
Below is a table with current models that support Qi. Data are checked against official specifications and tests of independent laboratories (e.g. GSMArena, DXOMARK). Note the "Notes" column, which shows important compatibility nuances.
| Model | Charging power | Reverse charging | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Xiaomi 14 Ultra | 80W | 10W | Requires a branded station Mi Wireless Charging Stand 80W. Supports charging in a horizontal and vertical position. |
| Xiaomi 14 Pro | 50W | 10W | Compatible with standard Qi charges, but maximum power (50W) is only achieved on original devices. |
| Xiaomi 13 Ultra | 50W | 10W | Supports charging through a case up to 3 mm thick. Included is an adapter for cooling. |
| Xiaomi Mix Fold 3 | 50W | 5W | Wireless charging only works when it is decomposed. Reverse charging is limited to 5W. |
| Redmi K60 Ultra | 30W | β | It only supports charging, no back-up, compatible with standard Qi drops. |
The full list also includes older models (e.g. Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra, Mi 10 Pro), but buying them in 2026 is not recommended due to lack of software updates and battery wear. If you need a current model with wireless charging, focus on the Xiaomi 13/14 or Mix Fold line.
How to Check if Your Xiaomi Supports Wireless Charging
If you already own a Xiaomi smartphone and are not sure about the feature, there are several ways to check it out:
- Official specifications: Find the model on mi.com under "Specifications" β "Battery." Look for the lines Wireless charging or Qi wireless charging.
- Phone settings: Go to Settings β About Phone β All specs. The Battery block should mention wireless charging.
- Qi charging test: Put your phone on any certified Qi station. If a charging indicator (usually a zipper without a wire) appears, the function is supported.
If the phone is not charging, but specs indicate support for Qi, check:
- π Power Cable: The wireless station must be connected to the adapter with a power of at least 18W (for 30W+ charger 65W adapter).
- π± Phone Position: The charging coil is usually at the top of the device - try to move the phone closer to the edge of the station.
- π‘οΈ Case: Metal or too thick cases (more than 3-4 mm) block charging.
β οΈ Attention: Some models (e.g, POCO F5 Pro) support wireless charging only after the firmware update. Check the software's relevance in Settings β Updating the system.
Wireless charging power: what does 5W, 30W, 50W and 80W mean?
Charging power directly affects the rate of battery replenishment. Xiaomi smartphones use the following standards:
- π’ 5Wβ10W: Basic speed (like old iPhones) takes 3-4 hours to charge fully, found in budget models or when using non-original stations.
- β‘ 20Wβ30W: Average speed: Charging from 0% to 100% in 1.5-2 hours, available in most flagships (Xiaomi 12 Pro, Redmi) K50 Pro).
- π 50Wβ80W: Fast charging. Full cycle per 40β60 It requires a proprietary station and an adapter. 13/14 Ultra and Mix Fold 3.
It is important to understand that peak power is indicated, which is achieved only under certain conditions:
- The battery temperature is 15-35 Β° C (when overheating, the power automatically decreases).
- Use the original power adapter (for example, 80W requires charging Xiaomi GaN 120W).
- Charging up to 80% β after that, the speed drops to protect the battery.
By comparison, wired charging in the same models usually runs at 67W-120W, which is 1.5-2 times faster, but wireless charging is more convenient in everyday use β just put the phone on the station without connecting the cables.

Reverse wireless charging: which Xiaomi can charge other devices
Reverse Wireless Charging allows you to use your smartphone as a power bank for other gadgets, such as Xiaomi AirDots headphones or Mi Band smartwatches. However, it is not available in all models and has limitations:
| Model | Recharge power | Compatible devices |
|---|---|---|
| Xiaomi 14 Ultra | 10W | Any Qi-devices (headphones, watches, smartphones) |
| Xiaomi 13 Pro | 10W | Xiaomi Devices Only (Software Restriction) |
| Xiaomi Mix Fold 2 | 5W | Only headphones and watches (not smartphones) |
To activate reverse charging:
- Go to Settings β Battery β Wireless charging.
- Enable the option of Reverse charging (could be called Reverse charging).
- Put the second gadget on the back of the smartphone (usually in the center where the logo is located).
β οΈ Warning: Recharge heats the battery up a lot, don't use it for more than 30 minutes in a row and keep your phone temperature at 40.Β°C).
Why does reverse charging run slower than straight charging?
What wireless charging to choose for Xiaomi
Not all Qi stations are equally efficient. Xiaomiβs smartphone options are as follows:
- π Original Stations: Mi Wireless Charging Stand 80W β Xiaomi 14 Ultra (Vertical Charging Support) Mi Fast Wireless Charge Pad 50W β universal for most flagships.
- π° Budget alternatives: Baseus Wireless Charger 20W β Compatible with all Xiaomi, which supports Qi. Anker PowerWave Pad β reliable station with cooling.
- π Car holders: Mi Car Wireless Charger - with mounting on the ventilation grille.
When choosing, pay attention to:
- Power: For 50W-80W charging, you need a station with support for Qi EPP (Extended Power Profile).
- Cooling: A metal body or fan prevents overheating.
- Size: Some stations (such as the Mi 80W Stand) take up a lot of space on the table.
Avoid cheap no-name charges, which can damage the battery due to unstable voltages, and the optimal budget for a quality station is from 1,500 to 3,000 rubles.
