The new Xiaomi 2C1A Three-port GaN Charger uses third-generation GaN technology, is compatible with more protocols, has improved heat dissipation, and a foldable pin design that further decreases its size.
Xiaomi's GaN charger supports flash charging up to 67W, so it can charge high-power devices such as Xiaomi mobile phones, Xiaomi laptops and the new MacBook Pro. For example, the brand's latest flagship Xiaomi 13 can be charged from zero to 100% in 38 minutes; while with devices like the Xiaomi Book Pro 16 2022, the charger offers a constant power of 65W.
Going into detail, the maximum output power of the two USB Type-C ports of the charger is 67W, while the maximum output power of the single USB Type-A port is 22,5W. The three ports can work simultaneously, and can also intelligently identify the computer charging. When all three ports are working, the power will be reduced to 45W for the first USB Type-C port and a total of 12W for the second USB Type-C port and that USB Type-A port.
Also, when charging multiple devices at the same time, the charger will prioritize supplying stable power to your computer to avoid power failure.
