Realme has simply introduced what it’s claiming to be the world’s quickest smartphone charging tech at MWC 2022, and teased an upcoming machine that’ll use it.
The tech, which Realme says will have the ability to supply between 100-200w charging relying on the machine, can cost a cellphone to 50% in as little as 5 minutes.
That’s a significantly spectacular declare, although Realme hasn’t but confirmed how lengthy it’ll take the cellphone to get to 100%. For comparability, one in all Realme’s latest units with 65w charging can get to 100% in round half-hour.
Realme says that this new charging tech, which it calls Extremely Dart Charging Structure (UDCA), not solely provides seemingly snappy speeds nevertheless it manages warmth too, so any cellphone utilizing it gained’t get ridiculously scorching when you’re gaming and charging on the identical time.
Any Realme cellphone that packs the tech may even have further battery safety. The model claims that the cell will nonetheless have the ability to cost to 80% even after over 1000 prices.
Quick charging has been bettering for a lot of years now, with manufacturers like Oppo (a model with shut ties to Realme) and Xiaomi touting it as a significant function.
Whereas Realme is saying the tech, it’s not fairly prepared to totally reveal the primary cellphone that’ll use UDCA. We do know that the cellphone will likely be known as the Realme GT Neo 3 and that it’ll have the ability to get to 50% cost after a mere 5 minutes.
Different specs for the cellphone, together with efficiency and show, are nonetheless underneath wraps.
Wnat else did Realme announce?
Realme hasn’t simply launched new charging tech at MWC 2022, however its first true flagship cellphone too.
The GT2 Professional packs a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip, twin 50MP cameras and a flat LTPO 2.0 show with a 1440p decision. It additionally has a fairly attention-grabbing design, with a papery plastic end on the again that provides a pleasant texture. The GT2 Professional will likely be obtainable for £599 when it launches early in March.
Trusted Take
Quick charging is little question a helpful function and with the ability to get to 50% in 5 minutes is tempting – however I can’t assist assume what injury this is perhaps doing to the battery. If the quantity of prices Realme quotes seems to be correct, then then this might change how we take into consideration battery life.
