Realme today introduced its 240W fast charger, the fastest charging solution for a smartphone that has entered mass production, with 240W being the highest charging power currently supported by the Type-C interface.

In the 240W charging architecture, the 20V/12A power is transformed into 10V/24A power through three independent charging pumps, meaning the phone will have three battery cells. The 12A cable will include four standard 21 AWG cables, which is nearly 3mm in diameter just for the wire inside the plastic insulation.

The charging process is monitored by 13 real time sensors to limit current if any danger occurs. Realme’s charging protection also includes fireproof materials and certificates for the end user’s peace of mind.

It has also confirmed that the company’s next flagship will feature 240W charging, which isn’t just an engineering exercise. Featuring multiple graphene sheets with a total surface area of 6,580 square millimeters, the phone will have the industry’s largest cooling area, which will help maintain performance under sustained loads, as well as handle the high charging load.

After 1,600 charging cycles, Realme promises that its battery will retain at least 80% of its original charge. Since the industry standard is 800, the next Realme GT phone will surpass that. Realme did promise the new standard would reach its upcoming flagship smartphone without providing a specific name.
