Xiaomi has launched a new 45W GaN USB-C charger in China, officially named the “Little Pudding.” The charger is priced at 54.9 yuan ($8) and arrives as a refreshed version of last year’s model with support for more charging protocols and foldable pins.
Xiaomi 45W GaN Charger Specifications
The new charger features Gallium Nitride (GaN) fast-charging technology, which allows it to deliver up to 45W of power in a compact and lightweight form factor. Xiaomi has reduced the total volume to just 36.4 cubic centimeters, making it 47% smaller than typical 45W chargers. It weighs only 50 grams and includes foldable prongs for easier portability.
Xiaomi has confirmed that the charger supports a wide range of fast-charging protocols, including PD (Power Delivery), PPS, and QC (Quick Charge). It can charge most mainstream smartphones, tablets, and other devices. The charger is also compatible with Apple’s fast charging.
According to Xiaomi’s lab results, the charger can recharge the iPhone 15 Pro Max to 56% in 30 minutes. It charges the Redmi Note 14 Pro to 67% in the same time frame.
The charger features a single USB-C port with output profiles of 5V 3A, 9V 3A, 15V 3A, 11V 4.1A, and 20V 2.25A. It supports global voltage input of 100-130V and 200-240V at 50/60Hz, making it suitable for international use. Xiaomi has rated the product for operation at altitudes up to 5,000 meters.
In terms of safety, the charger includes a VO-grade flame-retardant outer shell and multiple protection systems. These include safeguards against over-voltage, under-voltage, over-current, overheating, short circuits, static electricity, and lightning surges.
It also features electromagnetic and circuit protection. Xiaomi has conducted over 200 electrical performance and reliability tests and confirmed more than 1,000 hours of continuous operation during internal testing.
The charger complies with China’s safety standards. It also carries RoHS environmental and CCC safety certifications.
