This is an impressive figure, far exceeding the charging speeds of some smartphone brands currently on the market. For example, the OnePlus 12 needs almost 30 minutes to fully charge, and the Xiaomi 13 Pro also takes about 20 minutes with a 120W charger.

Realme, the smartphone company behind the super-fast charging technology called “SuperSonic Charge,” says its charger can charge a phone to 26% in 60 seconds and 50% in 120 seconds. These are test results, and actual performance may vary slightly depending on battery capacity and power supply in specific areas, the company states.
