Can the Mi 9 use regular Qi wireless chargers? - Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers

Hola
I know that the Mi 9 comes with wireless charging but I have read and seen on some YouTube reviews that claim that Xiaomi is using a proprietary induction charging system. So the question is can our Mi 9 use a regular Qi wireless charger? My whole family use wireless chargers, so it is an important feature for me. I really don't care how much longer it takes to charge if we use regular Qi chargers, just having it supported is good enough.
Hopefully someone who already has the device can shed some light on this. I was thinking of waiting for the OnePlus 7, but thankfully it's CEO stated that the latest version will still not come with Qi charging functionality... such a shame.

Hola
It seems like I wasn't the only one confused. A tech YouTuber has posted a video showcasing that the Mi 9 does support regular Qi wireless chargers! Link to YouTube video, it does answer a number of other questions:

Yes it does. I have a random one off amazon and whilst it's not quick charge 4, it charges it wirelessly (albeit slower) nonetheless

I think it's only for the new 20 watt wireless fast charge that you will need the proprietary charger,It is QI compatible so I believe it works with all QI chargers as well,but slower

Yes works with all wireless chargers

Wireless 3.0 Charger recomendations?

WHat is a good wireless charger for the Edge phone? I prefer not to alway connect with the cable......
Choetech has a few fast wireless chargers listed on Amazon.
1: Single Coil - Pad-type
2: Single Coil - Circle-type with Smart Lighting
3: 3 Coils - Pad-type with Smart Lighting
I was researching this yesterday. What you have to remember about wireless pads is that typically a 2.0 pad will charge similar to a Non fast Charge 2 plugin-in charger. So like a standard charger. Once 3.0 ones are out I assume it will be a similar scenario. Hopefully some day down the line they will be just as fast as their plugin counterparts.
As far as those links above, 10w max isn't very strong considering a plugin 3.0 is about 18w and even a 2.0 is 15w. So 10 watt seems pretty dinky for a wireless still. Still I guess better than the old 5 watt ones.
Tronsmart is making a fast charging capable qi charger which should be nice. I used to have a TYLT VU (angled qi charger) for my Nexus 6 that as great. I would buy an angled one because it's easier to see your phone on and impossible to not have it charge.

After some more digging I found this: Nekteck Wireless Charging Pad (18w QC 2.0 Adaptive)
Looks very promising; 18w, slightly tilted instead of laying down flat, smart lighting.

It does look nice, but it is just the pad, correct, you still need to use your own samsung charger?

Correct. You can also buy a "QC 2.0 Adaptive Fast Charger" like this.
please use the Samsung original or certified third-party 18W QC 2.0 adapter as its power source.
Already got one on order so maybe will get this too. Keep in mind that still this will NOT charge as fast as a 3.0 18w direct plug. Not sure why that ends up being the case, but that is what I have read.
BUT::: Lower down on the order page it say:
"Fast Charge Model(10W Output Max) ONLY "
So does that mean if you have an 18w source it still only delivers 10w to the phone? Seems hardly worth it. I sent them an inquiry about this. (it's not listed on their website)

I received that charger 3 days ago.
I can not test it on the S7 just yet of course, however I have tested it on other phones and it does charge faster than a standard Qi wireless charger does.
I will post up some information about this charger, and the Cheotech 10w circle fast charger that I have also, as soon as the phones arrive.

if you could do a compare with the plug-in 2.0 charger, that would be great.
Hi guys, I'm new to wireless charging, and I'm a bit confused as to which wireless fast charger I should buy for the S7...is there anything different about the wireless charging on the S7 than the S6, Note 5, etc.? Are there new chargers coming out soon that are somehow better than the ones currently on the market? I'm just wondering which charging pads would give me the fastest charge. If anyone could shed some light on this for me, that'd be helpful
Here is what i got for our Note 5's, my wife and I both have one. They have worked great so far. You need to use your Samsung fast charging adapter with it. For $19.99 I could not be happier.

My Choetech fast wireless charging pad still works great so far. I will recommend Choetech. Very stable and warm slightly. They have many kinds of wireless chargers, which has lots of good feedbacks on Amazon. :good:
Well now that there is a report that the s7 and s7e do not support quick charge 3.0 (sad) I'm not sure what's what.
I have this one: www.amazon.com/Wireless-Charging-Pad-CHOE-Qi-Enabled-Adaptive/dp/B016DAFUGY
Works REALLY well for me, charges a lot faster than the old Nokia DT-900 pads I have scattered around the house. Choetech is sending me their newest model to test, so I'll have a writeup for it here soon. Maybe a week or so?

That looks like a good one. I have a pad already, If I use one of the new power supplies will the charge fast, or need to upgrade the pad????
You'll need to use a Quickcharge 2.0 plug, to have it fast charge. It's not going to go any faster if you use a QC 3.0 unit though.
This is what I have now

Wireless Charger

I finally bought a mi mix 2s and now I wonder which wireless charger I should use with it. In the datasheet it says it supports 7.5W wireless charging. https://www.gearbest.com/chargers-cables/pp_1382334.html would this one be a good decision since it says 10W?
xiaomi's own wireless charger is also 5v2A and 9v2A supprot.

I guess every charger support these two mode are all fit this phone.
but the charging speed is half of QC3.0 wired charger.

Thanks, you are right... P=U*I so it's 10W too
Meizu 19$ 10W but I don't find where I can buy one
old Nokia DT-900 wireless charger working fine. around 2,5 hours for full charge (predictable on screen while charging but for real time must testing)
No issues with the Anker 10W pad. I like that it lights up for a bit when you lay the phone down but then goes dark to be unobtrusive.

Can i use my samsung wireless charger for mix 2s?
Every wireless charger that supports Qi standard up to 10 W max output will work with our phones..
I have different ones around here, from very cheap to the latest, all different brands all work fine. The cheap one since it's not a Quick Charge does take longer to charge the battery full but that's expected.

Output 1A - not enough for quick charge. You need to fined at least 2A output power.

More than half, as the phone can charge with up to 18W ...~17watts using a usb tester, that's ~2.27 times faster

Great question.
With my experience with Samsung and Fast Charging, it appears to work under two conditions in my vehicles:
If use my official Samsung Car charger and cables in conjunction with my device, it works well:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Genuine-Sa...553361843&sr=1-5&keywords=samsung+car+charger
But if I use third party cables and a third-party charger that supports to USB C to USB C, it works just as efficiently.
Here's what I'm using currently:
https://www.amazon.com/Blackweb-Cha...&qid=1553362594&s=electronics&sr=1-1-fkmrnull
Obviously this brand is not available in the UK but here is something similar:

I think i can find the samsung car charger here but i was interested in getting the huawei so i don't have to buy another one in the future if i change my phone. I would like to know if it works with it before i buy it since it is 15 euros here.
I can only theorize based on the amperes and voltage. It gets difficult afterwards and I'll explain.
Samsung's 'Adaptive Fast Charging' provides, under optimal conditions, 1.7A to equate roughly 15.3 watts.
Huawei AP38's 'SuperCharge' provides, under optimal conditions, 5A at 4.5V to equate roughly 22.5 watts.
So, based on the numbers alone, we're left to theorize that the AP38 'should' be the best solution.
So will the 'Huawei AP38' provide your Note 9 with the same charge that a 'SuperCharge' enabled device enjoys, likely not.
Will it charge faster? Absolutely. Will that charge be equivalent to a Samsung-branded one? No.
A series of competing charging standards exist ('Adaptive Fast Charging'/'SuperCharge'/'VOOC'/'QuickCharge') and they all use different technologies to deliver MORE voltage IF the charger and device are certified to work together.
So, at day's end, use high quality cables alongside your Huawei AP38 and you'll enjoy faster charge speeds.
Just NOT as fast as advertised.

This isn't exactly what you asked for but it does shed some light for you. I ordered this one. While it's not flat but instead a stand the rest of this info you'll find useful. The charger said up to15w but I wasn't getting anywhere near that. It doesn't include a cable or brick but I figured I had so many over the years it really wasn't a big deal to use my own. I tried the brick and cable that came with the pixel 5, slow charging. I tried the brick and cable from my OnePlus 6t, OnePlus 6, my wife's old samsung s9 brick and cable, all slow. Finally I tried an Anker qualcomm 2.0-3.0 certified brick and the stock OnePlus 6t cable, fast wireless charging achieved! Likely, the pixel 5 cable would have worked as well only the particular charger I have lacks USB C so had to use a different cable.
All that said, a brick that has qualcomm 2.0-3.0 fast charging, a decent cable and a wireless pad that has 15w should get what you want. You likely can buy the wireless pad with the correct brick...I just can't advise exactly which one.

Question Compatible 15w wireless chargers?

Hi guys,
I've noticed Samsung S21 ultra supports 15w wireless charging - I was just wondering if all 15w wireless chargers were compatible? Or whether they specifically have to support "Samsung fast charge 2.0" - like the official chargers?
Wondering what others have bought? Let me know! Thanks!
I've been doing some research, I know that Samsung devices are supported by QC 3.0... but just wondered if this is true for wireless charging? Will generic 15w wireless chargers work? Would be much cheaper!
While generic 15w chargers will work, there are other factors that needs to be considered. Such as what kind of brick you are using with the charger and things like how thick the case you are using.
Sammy only have one 15w charger and that is OG stand. The other sammy fast wireless charger is 9w (input still requires 15w though)
Can't comment whether which 15w is reliable or not as they are 3rd party and varies from company to company.
A fair point. I guess if you use a QC 3.0 brick with at least 15w output - with a 15w wireless charging pad it should theoretically work then?
Be interesting to see which ones people find works for them!

Probably works but wireless charging is inefficient and needlessly raises the battery temp which is detrimental to its longevity in the long run.

An 8 W Samsung wireless charger does not heat up the S21 ultra more than the 15 W charger I have (this cames with my Note 9). I would think a 25 Watt charger would heat it up more. The reason I bought the wireless charger was for my Note 9 and now the S21 ultra is that my Note 9, despite considerable babying, is showing some issues with the socket (it often will show cable charging instead of fast charging and despite changing cables, cleaning out the socket with compressed air and a toothbrush etc). So yes, in general you are correct but socket wear must not be discounted.

I hear what you're saying about the port. I do a lot of partial midrange charges so 3-4 times a day isn't uncommon.
The biggest thing is not to hit/drop it when a cable is connected.
Battery or port assembly the phone needs to come apart...
I have a couple of these wireless chargers. Mine are an older version that don't have a USB plug at the charging pad (mine has a non-removable wire from the pad). I can't seem to find specs on their site now, but when I bought mine they claimed they were 15w. I only bought them for how they look. I personally don't care how fast they charge, I prefer slow charging for better battey life, I'll use wired chaging when I need something faster. I have fast wireless charging disabled on my phone. But I just checked it, if I enable it, it does say "fast wieless charging" on the sceen when I place it on the pad, and the time to full charge is a little quicker than with fast wireless charging disabled. Still not as fast as wired though.

So the best way to check this is to download Ampere!
Grab it from Google play store, install it, and then open it while you are charging the phone on different wireless pads.
You work out the Watts by using;
Amps x Voltage
Let me know how it goes!
