Xiaomi Redmi K60 Pro

The Xiaomi Redmi K60 Pro is equipped with 120W wired fast charging and 30W wireless fast charging capabilities. The original charger, a 120W GaN charger from Xiaomi, has a smaller size compared to its predecessor but still features a USB-A port and supports PD protocol via a special contact. We tested the charger's performance and found that it can support input of 100-240V~50/60Hz, 3.0A. The original cable is a customized USB-A to USB-C cable with widened internal contacts to increase current to 6A. The charger also integrates two self-developed charging chips, Surge P1 inside, which divide the 20V 6A into two circuits of 20V 3A each and then buck the voltage to 5V and increase the current to 12A. In testing, we found that the original charger can charge the Redmi K60 Pro at 100W for the first four minutes before gradually dropping to around 56-63W. The phone was fully charged in 20 minutes. We also tested compatibility with other chargers, finding that only Xiaomi's own chargers and some PPS chargers could trigger high charging speeds. The temperature during charging remained stable at around 42°C (107.6°F), indicating good heat management. However, the device's compatibility is limited to original accessories for optimal charging speed. Overall, the Redmi K60 Pro's charger performed well in our tests, but its limitations should be noted.
