Redmi plans three 10,000 mAh phones with 100W charging

A fresh leak from Digital Chat Station on Weibo claims Redmi is engineering three separate handsets that will each house a 10,000 mAh battery. The rumor says the power pack will be a single‑cell design paired with 100W wired fast charging. If true, the devices would join a growing niche of ultra‑long‑lasting phones.

Both the mainstream Note series and the performance‑focused K line are slated to receive the massive cell. Chinese Note models have diverged from their global twins, often launching months earlier, while K phones remain China‑only but sometimes surface abroad under the Poco badge. That pathway could deliver a Poco variant with the same battery in Asian markets.

A 10,000 mAh pack promises days of screen time even under heavy gaming, yet the single‑cell format likely excludes EU compliance, limiting official rollout to Asia. Consumers craving marathon usage may welcome the trade‑off of bulkier chassis for fewer charges, while manufacturers gain a clear differentiator in a crowded mid‑range segment.

Because the battery will support 100W charging, a full top‑up could finish in roughly half an hour, mitigating the inconvenience of a larger form factor. If the leak proves accurate, the move signals Redmi’s willingness to push endurance ahead of thinness, a strategy that could pressure rivals to reconsider their own power‑budget allocations.
