Wireless charging has long ceased to be an exclusive feature of flagship smartphones β today it is available even in medium-budget devices. However, Xiaomiβs situation with this technology has always been ambiguous: the company has been actively implementing it in top models, then suddenly abandoned it in new lines. In 2026, the range of devices with support for Qi-standard changed again, and it became more difficult to understand.
In this article, we will not just list all the current smartphones Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO It's a wireless charging experience, but it also reveals some key nuances: why the charging speed is often lower than the stated rate, which charging stations are better for specific models, and why some devices warm up more than others when charging without wires. MIUI, which will help to optimize the process.
If you are planning to buy or already use a Xiaomi smartphone with Qi, but are not sure about the correctness of charging it β here you will find answers to all technical questions, including compatibility with car holders and powerbanks.
Which Xiaomi smartphones will support wireless charging in 2026?
Xiaomiβs wireless charging list changes every year, and 2026 is no exception. While the feature was previously reserved for the Mi and Mix flagships, it has now penetrated even some Redmi and POCO models. However, there is an important caveat: not all devices support the same speed. For example, the Xiaomi 14 Pro can charge at 50 watts, and the Redmi K60 Ultra can only charge at 30 watts.
Below is the current list of models with the maximum wireless charging power (data as of June 2026):
- π± Xiaomi 14 Pro β 50 W (the highest speed in the lineup)
- π± Xiaomi 14 β 50 W (requires a proprietary station)
- π± Xiaomi 13 Ultra β 50W (compatible with Mi Wireless Charging Stand)
- π± Xiaomi Mix Fold 3 β 50 W (supports 10W reverse charging)
- π± Redmi K70 Pro β 30 W (with original adapter only)
- π± POCO F6 Pro - 30 watts (analogue of Redmi) K70)
- π± Xiaomi Civi 4 Pro β 30 W (first Civi with Qi)
Note that Redmi Note and most POCO models (except the F-series) do not support wireless charging, and no devices older than 2021 are on the list, and their batteries are no longer optimized for modern Qi standards.
Why is the actual charging speed lower than the stated one?
If you've ever tried charging a Xiaomi 14 Pro at a 50 watt station and you've only got 20 to 25 watts, you're not alone. This is a common problem, and here are the main reasons:
- The original charging station. Even if it supports 50 watts, the smartphone may limit power due to the lack of Xiaomi certification.
- Battery temperature: When heated above 40Β°C, the system automatically reduces power to 10-15 watts.
- Background processes: If you're using navigation, play, or camera while charging, some of the energy goes to them.
- MIUI version: In firmware older than MIUI 14, there may be no optimization for high power.
A critical nuance: Xiaomi smartphones with support for 50 watts require the mandatory use of the proprietary station Mi Wireless Charging Stand 2 (model MDY-13-EM). With other devices, the maximum power will not exceed 30 watts, even if they are certified by Qi.

Before buying a charging station, check its compatibility on the Wireless Power Consortium website. Look for models that support Qi Extended Power Profile (EPP) - they are faster than standard ones.
Compatibility with car holders and powerbanks
Wireless charging in the car is a convenient feature, but not all car holders are suitable for Xiaomi smartphones.
- π Low power. Most holders give no more than 7.5-10 watts, which is 5 times slower than the Xiaomi 14 Pro.
- π Overheating: In an enclosed cabin, temperatures may exceed the safe 45.Β°C, and the charging will go off.
- π± Incorrect positioning. If the smartphone coil does not match the holder coil, charging will be intermittent.
Recommended car charging models for Xiaomi:
| Holder model | Max. Power. | Compatibility | Price (2026) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mi Wireless Car Charger (MWC01ZM) | 20 W. | All Xiaomi with Qi | ~3 500 β½ |
| Baseus Wireless Car Charger | 15 W. | Xiaomi 12/13/14, Redmi K60 | ~2 200 β½ |
| Anker PowerWave 7.5 | 7.5 Watts | Any Qi devices | ~1 800 β½ |
For powerbanks, the situation is even more complicated: most portable batteries with wireless charging give no more than 5-10 watts. The exception is Xiaomi Mi Power Bank 3 Pro 20000mAh (PLM15ZM), which supports up to 20 watts, but only for compatible models.
How to check the actual charging power?
Reverse wireless charging: Which Xiaomi models can charge other devices?
Reverse Wireless Charging allows you to use your smartphone as a powerbank for other gadgets, such as Xiaomi Buds headphones or Mi Band smartwatches. However, not all Xiaomi models support this option, and where it is, the speed is often disappointing.
List of Rechargeable Devices (2026):
- π Xiaomi 14 Pro β 10 watts (maximum for headphones)
- π Xiaomi 13 Ultra β 10 W (requires switching on in settings)
- π Xiaomi Mix Fold 3 β 5 watts (limited due to flexible screen)
- π Redmi K60 Ultra β 5 W (only for Qi devices)
How to turn back charging:
- Go to Settings β Battery β Wireless charging.
- Activate the option of Reverse charging.
- Put the second gadget on the back of the smartphone (the center of the coil is usually marked with a logo).
β οΈ Warning: Recharge heats the battery up a lot. Do not use it for more than 30 minutes in a row and make sure the body temperature is below 40.Β°C (can be checked in Settings) β Battery status).

How to speed up wireless charging: life hacks and MIUI settings
Even if your smartphone theoretically supports 50W, in practice you are unlikely to get this speed without optimization.
- Use the original station. For example, for the Xiaomi 14 Pro, only the Mi Wireless Charging Stand 2 (MDY-13-EM) is suitable.
- Turn off background processes. Close all applications through Recent β Close everything.
- Activate the "Fast Charging" mode in Settings β Battery β Charging settings.
- Cool your smartphone. If the temperature is above 30Β°C, the power automatically drops. Use a cooling stand.
- Update MIUI. In firmware older than MIUI 14 may not support high power.
Another secret: if youβre using the Xiaomi 13 Ultra or 14 Pro, try charging them upright at the station, which in some cases increases power by 5 to 10 percent due to better coil contact.
π‘
The most effective way to speed up charging is to combine the original station + cool the smartphone to 25-30 Β° C. Under such conditions, the Xiaomi 14 Pro can reach the declared 50 watts.
Covers and accessories: what prevents wireless charging?
If your Xiaomi smartphone suddenly stopped charging wirelessly, it may not be the case, but the case or other accessories.
- π‘οΈ Metal cases block the magnetic field, even a thin aluminum bumper will reduce the power to zero.
- π§² Magnetic holders (e.g. for a machine) β can displace the coil if not compatible with Xiaomi.
- π¦ Cardholder cases β if the card contains a metallized strip (chip), charging will be interrupted.
- π External batteries with magnets β some powerbanks are attracted to the smartphone, but interfere with charging.
The recommended thickness of the case for wireless charging is not more than 3 mm. Optimal materials: silicone, polycarbonate or thin TPU. If you need a protected case, look for models marked "Qi-Compatible" (for example, Spigen Thin Fit or Ringke Fusion-X).
β οΈ Note: Some smart cases with a display (for example, for the Xiaomi Mix Fold 3) can completely block charging if not folded.
The future of wireless charging in Xiaomi smartphones: what to expect?
Xiaomi has taken a step forward in 2026 by introducing a 50-watt charger for flagships, but thatβs not the limit. According to insiders, in 2026, the company plans to:
- π Introduce 67-watt wireless charging in Xiaomi 15 Ultra (similar to Realme) GT Neo 5).
- π Add support for two-way charging (at the same time charge the smartphone and give energy to the headphones).
- π Expand the line of Redmi with Qi: expected Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 30 watts.
- π Improve compatibility with AirFuel (Qi alternative), which will allow charging devices at a distance of up to 5 cm.
Wireless charging technology is also in development (up to 1 meter), but it is not expected to be mass-produced until 2026, and is currently an experimental feature only available in laboratory prototypes.
If youβre planning to buy a Xiaomi smartphone with wireless charging, it makes sense to wait for the fall announcements of 2026 β there will probably be new models with improved specs.

In the next 1-2 years, wireless charging in Xiaomi smartphones will become faster and more affordable, but the wires will not disappear completely β they are still needed for maximum speed (120+ watts).
