Xiaomi models support wireless charging: full list of 2026

Wireless charging has long ceased to be an exclusive feature of flagship smartphones β€” today it is available even in some devices of the mid-range. However, Xiaomi, despite its reputation as an innovative brand, traditionally equips this technology not all models. If you are planning to buy a new gadget and want to get rid of wires, it is important to know in advance which Xiaomi smartphones support the Qi standard and how fast you can count on charging.

In this article, we will not only list all the current models with wireless charging, but also reveal the nuances of their implementation: from maximum power (which can vary even within the same line) to compatibility with popular charging stations.

Why not all Xiaomi smartphones support wireless charging

At first glance, it may seem that the lack of Qi charging in budget or even some flagship Xiaomi models is just a way to save money.

  • πŸ”‹ The coil requires extra space, making it difficult to build thin smartphones (for example, the Mi 11 Lite line abandoned it for the sake of compactness).
  • πŸ’° Cost: Adding Qi increases the price of the device by 10-15%, which is critical for the budget segment (for example, Redmi Note or the Redmi Note). POCO M).
  • ⚑ Heat generation. High-power wireless charging (30W+) heats the battery more than wired, requiring a more complex cooling system.
  • πŸ“¦ Marketing strategy: Xiaomi often reserves premium features (including fast wireless charging) for flagships to highlight their status.

Interestingly, even within a series, Qi support can vary.For example, Xiaomi 12 Pro received a new version of the Qi. 50W-The basic model of Xiaomi 12 is only 20W. This is due to different target audiences: the first buyers are willing to pay for maximum functionality, the second – looking for a balance of price and opportunity.

How to Check if Your Xiaomi Supports Wireless Charging

If you are already the owner of a Xiaomi smartphone and are not sure about the presence of a Qi module, there are several ways to find out this without disassembling the device:

  1. Check in settings: Go to Settings β†’ About Phone β†’ Device Specifications. The Battery section should have a Wireless Charging line indicating the supported standards.
  2. Visual inspection: Some models (such as the Xiaomi 11 Ultra) have a metal ring around the camera on the back – it often masks the coil of wireless charging.
  3. Charging station test: Put your smartphone on any Qi charge (even 5W). If a charging indication appears, the module is present. Lack of response does not always mean lack of support: some models require activation of the function in the settings.
  4. Serial number check: On the Mi Verify website, type in the IMEI or SN of the device – the report will indicate information about the types of charging supported.

Check for the "Wireless charging" line in the specifications

Make sure the back cover is not metal (Qi interferes)

Use the original Xiaomi charging station for the test

Update the firmware to the latest version (in older versions) MIUI function could be disabled)-->

If your model doesn't support wireless charging, but you want to add it, there are alternatives, from adapter stickers to replacing the back cover with an integrated coil, but these modifications are unwarranted and can cause overheating, and we'll talk about them in more detail in one of the following sections.

Wireless charging speed: what affects the real power

The manufacturer's claims of 50W or 80W are rarely achieved in real-world conditions, and several factors affect charging speed:

  • πŸ”Œ Type of charging station. Xiaomi branded devices only (e.g. Mi Wireless Charging Stand) 50W) Provide maximum power. Third-party charging is often limited to 10–15W.
  • 🌑️ Temperature, heat above 40.Β°The C smartphone automatically reduces power. Xiaomi 14 Ultra has liquid cooling for this, but budget models do not have it.
  • πŸ“± Battery status: After 500 charging cycles, the battery capacity drops, and wireless charging speeds can decrease by 20 to 30 percent%.
  • πŸ”„ Background processes: Active synchronization, games or videos in 4K Increase the load on the processor, which slows down the charging.

For clarity, we will give the results of the tests Xiaomi 13 Pro with different chargers (data from GSMArena):

ChargerMax. power (W)Charging time 0-100%Housing heating (Β°C)
Xiaomi 50W Wireless Charger4855 minutes38
Samsung 15W Qi Pad12140 minutes34
Anker PowerWave 10W9180 minutes32

The key takeaway: to get the speed the manufacturer claims, you’ll have to buy Xiaomi’s original charging, for example, the Xiaomi 14 Ultra will only work for the Mi 80W Wireless Charging Stand (priced at ~$80). Using cheap analogues will not only slow the process, but can damage the battery due to unstable voltage.

πŸ’‘

If your Xiaomi supports wireless charging but is warming too much, try removing the case while charging or using an active cooling stand (like the Baseus Cooling Pad).

Can I add wireless charging to Xiaomi where it is not?

Technically, yes, but with reservations, there are three main ways, each with its own risks and limitations:

  1. Adapter stickers (e.g., Nillkin Magic Tag): The way it works is that a thin coil is glued to the back cover and plugs into the USB-C connector via the adapter. Pros: cheap (~$10), no need to be parsed. Cons: thickness increases by 2-3 mm, power is limited to 5W, often falls off.
  2. Replacement of the rear cover: Some workshops offer lids with built-in Qi coil for popular models (e.g. Redmi Note 11 Pro)+). Cost: $30-50 Risks: Loss of leakage (IP-Certification, possible problems with NFC.
  3. Maternal board modification: The most difficult option is soldering an additional module to the battery contacts. It requires professional skills and costs ~$100. It is only suitable for flagships (for example, Xiaomi 12T), where there is spare space under the reel.

⚠️ Warning: Any modifications will void warranty and could cause fires when low-quality components are used, such as the Redmi Note 10 Pro in 2022, when cheap Qi modules were installed.

If you are still going to upgrade, we recommend:

  • πŸ› οΈ Contact certified service centers only (list on Xiaomi website).
  • πŸ” Check the compatibility of the module with your model (for example, the coil from Xiaomi 11 Lite is not suitable for you). POCO X3).
  • πŸ“„ Require a work guarantee (minimum 6 months).
What happens if you install the Qi module incorrectly?
An incompatible coil can short-circuit the power controller, at best the smartphone will stop turning on, at worst the battery will swell or ignite, and it is especially dangerous to install modules with AliExpress without checking safety certificates (e.g. CE or RoHS).

Comparison with competitors: how Xiaomi is lagging (or ahead) of other brands

As of 2026, Xiaomi is in the middle of the wireless charging market. On the one hand, the brand offers a record 80W in Xiaomi 14 Ultra, overtaking even the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra (45W). On the other hand, it lags behind in the prevalence of technology: for example, Apple equips Qi all iPhone models since the 8th series (2017), and Xiaomi still produces flagships without wireless charging (for example, Xiaomi 13T).

For clarity, compare the approaches of key manufacturers:

BrandMin model with QiMax. power (W)Features
XiaomiMi 9 Pro 5G (2019)80Record speed, but only in the top models
AppleiPhone 8 (2017)15 (7.5 with MagSafe)Support in all models but low power
SamsungGalaxy S6 (2015)45Standard for all flagships, reverse charging
OppoFind X2 Pro (2020)65Uses the proprietary standard VOOC Air

Xiaomi wins at maximum power, but loses in mass. For example, even the budget Samsung Galaxy A54 (2023) supports 15W Qi, while the similarly priced Redmi Note 12 Pro+ does not. Xiaomi is actively developing reverse wireless charging (up to 10W), which allows you to use the smartphone as a powerbank for headphones or smart watches.

πŸ’‘

If wireless charging is critical for you but the budget is tight, consider Samsung or Google Pixel models – they offer Qi even in the mid-range, whereas Xiaomi reserves the feature for flagships.

Frequent problems and their solutions

Users of Xiaomi smartphones with wireless charging often encounter common errors, and here are the most common ones and ways to fix them:

  • πŸ”„ Charging interrupted or not started: Causes: incompatible charging station, contact contamination, power saving mode on. Solution: use the original charging, clean the connector USB-C alcohol, turn off the battery mode β†’ Energy conservation.
  • ⚑ Slow charging (e.g., slow charging, 5W instead 50W): Reasons: improper positioning on the station, overheating, outdated firmware. Solution: center your smartphone on a coil, cool the device, upgrade. MIUI last-minute.
  • πŸ”‹ Smartphone doesn't detect wireless charging: Reasons: disabled function in settings, damaged coil, unoriginal back cover. Solution: check Settings β†’ Battery β†’ Wireless charging, replace the cover with the original.
  • πŸ“΅ Charging only works in a certain position: Reasons: the displacement of the coil inside the housing, a defect in the charging station. Solution: try another charge or contact the service center for the module diagnosis.

If none of these things worked, it might be a hardware problem, like the Xiaomi 12 Pro, which has a power controller bug that blocks wireless charging after a fall, which requires a replacement motherboard.

For diagnosis, you can use the hidden menu of engineering settings:

Can I use Samsung’s wireless charging for Xiaomi?
Most Samsung charging (e.g. EP-PG950) supports Qi EPP, so it will work with Xiaomi, but power will be limited to 10-15W instead of the 50W.
Does wireless charging the battery spoil faster than wired charging?
Wireless charging generates more heat, which accelerates battery degradation by ~5-10% compared to wired charging. However, modern Xiaomi smartphones (starting with Xiaomi 12) have a cooling system that minimizes this effect, the main thing is not to use cheap charging without certification.
Why does Xiaomi 13 Ultra heat up while wirelessly charging?
This model uses a two-coil system to charge 50W, which leads to increased heat generation. Xiaomi recommends: Remove the case while charging. Use a proprietary fan station (for example, Mi Turbo Wireless Charger). Do not use your smartphone while charging (games / video increase heating). If the temperature exceeds 45 Β° C, the system automatically reduces the power to 20W.
What covers interfere with wireless charging?
Any cases with metal elements (for example, Ringke Fusion-X) or thickness of more than 3 mm. Also problems cause: cases with magnets (can interfere with the operation of the coil); bumpers with enhanced protection (for example, UAG Pathfinder. Cases with a "kixtend" function (metal stand blocks the signal), the best option is thin silicone or thin silicone. TPU-Couples (such as original ones from Xiaomi).
Will Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro+ have wireless charging?
No, according to official data.The Redmi Note line traditionally focuses on price/quality ratio, and wireless charging is not included. If this feature is critical, consider the Xiaomi Civi 3 or POCO F5 Pro – they are cheaper than flagships, but support Qi.
