Although about ten years ago, the chargers of various mobile phone manufacturers have their own characteristics, with the development of smartphones, these manufacturers have gradually begun to unify chargers. Although the fast charging protocols supported by various manufacturers are still not unified, they can also support the most basic "intercommunication" between each other. However, over the years of development, , Apple has been "independent". Whether it is the initial "big long strip" charging port or the lightning charging port that has been used since the iPhone 5, it has not been unified with other mobile phones, and the result of this is to cause more waste and environmental pollution.
So now, EU and the Ministry of Industry and Commerce have issued an "ultimatum" to Apple, saying that it must be the unified charging port before 2024 to the Type-C port. However, Apple is actually very reluctant. The first point is that Apple will not be able to make money in charge of chargers in the future. The second point is that after the unified charging port, the fast charging advantages of other manufacturers will become more and more obvious. Tonight, Redmi released the Redmi Note12Pro+ Exploration Edition that supports 210W fast charging. It can charge a 5000mAh battery in 9 minutes. This speed is predictable.
This is also good, so that Apple knows the difference between it and other mobile phone manufacturers in terms of charging, so as to avoid Apple always turning a blind eye to the fact that it charges slowly. In terms of fast charging technology, Xiaomi is considered a veteran promoter. From 45W, 67W, 80W to 120W and 210W, Xiaomi has always been ahead of the industry. Now Redmi has launched the 210W charging technology for the first time. Not to mention that Xiaomi's flagship is useless, all brands around the world, whether it is a flagship of thousands or tens of thousands, are not as advanced as this phone in terms of charging. In addition to being more advanced in fast charging technology, domestic mobile phones are also more radical in imaging. As a thousand yuan phone, Redmi Note12 Pro is equipped with Sony IMX766 and OIS optical anti-shake , with 200 million pixels, which puts down Xiaomi's image brain, and also provides new ways to play professional film cameras, film frames, etc. Compared with the 12 million dual cameras that remain unchanged for thousands of years, domestic mid-range phones have stronger innovation capabilities.
In short, Apple does not want to listen to the order issued by the EU this time, and hopes that domestic brands can maintain their innovative spirit after Apple has changed to C port, and do not let Apple come from behind.
