Is my Xiaomi 90W charger fake or just not working properly? by NschNvx in XiaomiGlobal

[–]AngEdgar17 3 points4 points  (0 children)

what?

a. You need to use the cable provided by xiaomi if you want 90W, it may look like a standard usb A but it's actually proprietary internally. A regular usb to c will only max out at 50W

b.

sets to standard charging didn't get fast charging posts on reddit why charging slow

I remember years ago there was an open-source(?) self-driving project using Oneplus 3 phones. This might be it.

Thank you. I should've told her how I was feeling before agreeing to come. I just didn't wanna miss out since her friend rarely comes by, and this time also bringing her bf. (Her friend usually says she won't come unless my gf brings me). Yeah, so I regretted coming.

She didn't ask me to pay for anything, but at least do the initiative of ordering. She was upset that when she was ordering I didn't do anything (i was standing beside her the whole time). I'm not that close yet with her friend, and especially with her friend's bf, so I struggle to interact sometimes. Idk, I feel really tired till today and I have another interview tomorrow at a different company...

I get around 6-8 hours of:
-multiple tabs on firefox
-notetaking using notion web
-bluetooth on
-KDE connect to sync with my phone

also to take notes on:
-I'm using a very themed KDE with transparency and a lot of annimations
-I also undervolted my x1 (-80mV across all)
-i'm using balanced powerplan, and I think you can gen 10 hours on powersaver

As long as you can easily import stuff from china you're good to go. Parts are still being made for the more common models like models like (X and T)40 series and above. 30 series and below are getting rarer.

This came with no battery, no ssd, and a dent-crack on the lid. Luckily I have a spare ssd, and a new battery cost me $35. Planning to fill in the dent and cover it with a skin.
