The Chinese company said that the new SuperSonic Charge technology can charge the phone with about 320 watts of power (that is, 16 times more than the standard iPhone charger).
At the 828 Fanfest event in Shenzhen, the company showed that a 4,420 mAh battery can be charged in 4 minutes and 30 seconds.
But Realme has yet to launch a smartphone that can absorb this much power.
The smartphone reached 26% charge after connecting it to power for just one minute, and reached 50% in less than two minutes. For a smartphone with a slightly smaller battery than the new Pixel 9, this means charging a fully empty battery in less than 5 minutes.
Another great innovation is “the new Realme battery that uses 4 separate cells, each of which can charge at the same time. “
In general, manufacturers, such as Apple and Samsung, choose single-cell batteries because they provide more energy storage in a tight space.
However, despite using multiple cells, Realme says it offers a battery greater than the 3,349 mAh storage capacity of the iPhone 15, thanks to a folding battery design inspired by space solar panels.
A company spokesperson says: “First, we strategically analyzed each battery cell into linear structures to optimize space to achieve higher capacity. “Second, we wrapped 4 battery cells into satellite panels and connected them to a flexible charging pack.”
The resulting battery is also said to be flexible, meaning it could be used to design a foldable smartphone in the future.
Early last year, Realme set a record for the fastest charging smartphone with the GT Neo 5, which can be charged in 9 and a half minutes thanks to a 240-watt charger.
It should be noted that Realme did not indicate when this technology will be launched on a larger scale.
