According to Xiaomi, this new design gives 10% more power in the same footprint. While 10% doesn\u2019t sound like much, it\u2019s better than nothing and is a welcomed jump from current battery tech, which feels as though it\u2019s more or less plateaued over the past few years.<\/p>\n<table class=\"images noCrop singleNoBorder center\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" data-image-height=\"null\" data-image-width=\"590\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"image\" style=\"width: 590px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dpreview.com\/files\/p\/articles\/9595254474\/Xiaomi_Battery_Tech_1.jpeg\" target=\"article-d10def7f1c364bdaa8df9a6ff013afea\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/4.img-dpreview.com\/files\/p\/E~TS590x0~articles\/9595254474\/Xiaomi_Battery_Tech_1.jpeg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4.img-dpreview.com\/files\/p\/E~TS1180x0~articles\/9595254474\/Xiaomi_Battery_Tech_1.jpeg 2x\" width=\"590\" height=\"181\" border=\"0\" data-thumbnail-height=\"0\" data-thumbnail-width=\"590\" data-filename=\"Xiaomi_Battery_Tech_1.jpeg\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"caption\" style=\"width: 590px;\">An illustration from Xiaomi showing the packaging of the battery with the piece of copper foil (pictured as orange) running down the middle.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Xiaomi doesn\u2019t specify what smartphone we\u2019ll first see these new batteries inside, but does say it will start mass production in the second half of 2022.
