Xiaomi Mi 9 has Improved Fast Charging?

By

When Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun was asked if the upcoming Mi 9 will support 24W fast charging, he quickly replied that the device must have “better” fast charging. Now, this could mean one of a few things – either the rumored 32W fast charging for the Mi 9 is true, or it could also just be a confirmation that it will indeed have 24W fast charging. While 32W is somewhere in QC5 territory, the Snapdragon 855 only supports QC4+.
