power bankThe market has become lively again recently.MilletThis time, four new products are launched at once, ranging from a portable model that focuses on thin and light magnetic suction, to a large-capacity version that supports 67W fast charging and can even recharge laptops. It seems like just a regular update, but if you take a closer look, you will find that there are many noteworthy changes in the design, charging efficiency and usage scenarios.
Especially in the areas of magnetic design, integrated charging cables and simultaneous charging of multiple devices, Xiaomi has clearly rethought the user experience. If you happen to be looking for a power bank recently, this wave of new products will most likely make you rethink “which one is best for you.”
Xiaomi’s 4 power bank models go on sale in Taiwan at once! Ultra-thin, magnetic suction, built-in cable, 67W fast charging, and large capacity are all included, and all have passed 3C certification
Xiaomi’s power bank product line in Taiwan has actually always attracted good attention. From focusing on large-capacity models with high CP values in the early days, to adding magnetic suction, fast charging and even cross-device support in recent years, Xiaomi has gradually transformed mobile power supplies from simple backup power into accessories that are more suitable for daily use.
In January this year, Xiaomi first launched an extremely thin and light “Xiaomi “Slim Magnetic Power Bank 5000 15W” caused a lot of discussion at the time with a thickness of only about 6mm. However, in actual use, since it does not support Qi2, magnetic charging is still stuck at 7.5W for iPhone users, which is somewhat of a pity. This time, Xiaomi directly complements different usage scenarios at once and launches four new mobile power supplies, including:
- Xiaomi magnetic ultra-thin power bank 5000 7.5W
- Xiaomi Magnetic Stand Power Bank 10000 7.5W
- Xiaomi comes with a power bank 10000 67W
- Xiaomi comes with its own power bank 20000 67W
Moreover, all four products have passed the “3C certification”, which provides an additional layer of security for Taiwanese consumers.
What is 3C certification?
The full name of “3C Certification” is China Compulsory Certification (CCC). It is a compulsory market access system implemented by the Chinese government in accordance with the law. The purpose is to protect the personal safety of consumers, maintain safety and protect the environment.
For ordinary people, if they want to fly into China, the power bank they bring must have the 3C certification mark. However, most of the power banks currently sold in Taiwan lack this certification.
Therefore, if you need to travel to China for travel or business, when purchasing a power bank, these four newly sold power banks in Taiwan can now be carried with confidence.
Next, let’s look at each one one by one to see what are the differences between them and what kind of user groups they are suitable for.
Magnetic thin and light pie: Xiaomi magnetic ultra-thin power bank 5000 7.5W, 5000mAh can also be made very high-quality
The first thing I saw was the Xiaomi Magnetic Ultra-Thin Power Bank 5000 7.5W, priced at NT$799.
The core focus of this product is actually very simple, which is “lightweight and easy to carry.”
The thickness of the fuselage is reduced to about 8.7mm, which is about 27.5% less than previous products of the same level. It actually feels very good when held in the hand. Especially when used with an iPhone, there is almost no obvious heaviness, which is very important for people who are accustomed to using their phones while charging.
There are also many details in the exterior design. The aluminum alloy shell is paired with sandblasting and diamond-cut edges. It doesn’t look too cheap, but rather skews towards the line of boutique accessories. The fiberglass panel on the back balances weight and durability.
The magnetic part has built-in 17 neodymium magnetic cores, with a magnetic force of 10N. The actual adsorption stability is sufficient for daily use, and there is little chance of slipping.
In terms of charging, it supports multiple modes, including wired up to 22.5W (depending on the charging device):
Wireless supports 5W, 7.5W, 10W, and 15W. However, for iPhone users, the magnetic wireless is still 7.5W, which should be noted.
It is also possible to charge 2 devices at the same time:
In addition, Xiaomi has also added a temperature control design to this product. It monitors the temperature about 12,000 times per minute through dual NTC sensors, and adds a graphene heat dissipation layer to make the temperature more stable during long-term use.
The positioning of this product is very clear, it is “portable backup power”. If you just commute or go out to recharge, this thin and light model is actually more practical.

Advanced magnetic suction: Xiaomi magnetic holder power bank 10000 7.5W, multi-functional holder directly frees your hands
Next is the Xiaomi Magnetic Stand Power Bank 10000 7.5W, priced at NT$999.
This can be said to upgrade the magnetic power bank from a “charging tool” to a “usage scenario tool”. The biggest highlight is the built-in stand, which can be unfolded up to about 80°. When used with a magnetically fixed mobile phone, it can be directly turned into a stand for watching TV shows or making video calls. This design is actually very useful in daily life, such as watching videos while charging, holding video conferencing without holding it, and using it as a temporary stand when traveling.
In addition to the stand, this model also integrates an L-shaped charging cable so that you won’t get stuck by the cable when using the phone in landscape orientation. This detail is actually a plus.
The battery capacity is 10000mAh and supports wired output up to 33W (depending on the charging device).
Wireless is also up to 15W, and the iPhone supports 7.5W wireless charging:
Can charge 3 devices simultaneously:
It even supports pass-through charging. While the mobile power supply recharges itself, it can also simultaneously power other devices, making it more flexible and efficient in use.
In addition, a digital display screen is added, so you can directly see the remaining power without having to guess.
Overall, this model is suitable for “heavy mobile phone users,” especially those who often watch videos, scroll on their phones, or need to use their phones for long periods of time.

Getting Started with Fast Charging: Xiaomi comes with its own power bank 10000 67W, which is enough for fast charging and can also charge laptops
The third model is Xiaomi’s own line power bank 10000 67W, priced at NT$849.
The biggest feature of this power bank is its “high power”. It has a built-in USB-C charging cable and the maximum output can reach 67W. Not only mobile phones, but also some laptops can support it.
Official data shows that it takes about 59 minutes to fully charge Xiaomi 15, and it takes about 1 hour and 16 minutes to charge itself. The power bank also supports 65W input power, which can quickly charge the power bank itself. This speed is already quite fast among power banks.
The design uses an integrated charging cable and can be turned into a lanyard, making it more convenient to carry when going out, and there is no need to carry extra cables.
Provides 3 output interfaces at the same time, which can power 3 devices at the same time.
The digital display screen makes battery information clear at a glance. The remaining power can be accurately displayed to single digits. At the same time, low-current charging mode, charging status and abnormal reminders can also be clearly understood.
Another small detail is the low current mode, which allows devices such as headphones or smart bracelets to be charged safely.
This model is actually very suitable for “working people”, such as going out for interviews, working in coffee shops for a long time, and using mobile phones + tablets + laptops at the same time. At a price of only NT$849, the CP value is actually very high.

Heavy battery life king: Xiaomi’s built-in power bank 20000 67W, a real travel artifact
Finally, Xiaomi comes with its own power bank 20000 67W, priced at NT$999.
If the former one is for daily use, then this one is directly suitable for “long-term outings or travels.” The capacity reaches 20000mAh, which means that it can charge mobile phones more times, and tablets or laptops can also be recharged with more confidence. Taking the 13-inch MacBook Air (M4) as an example, official data shows that it can be charged up to 37% in 30 minutes and can be fully charged 1.03 times.
It also supports 67W output and 65W input, and can be fully charged in about 2.5 hours.
The design continues with the integrated USB-C cable, which can be turned into a sling for easier portability.
It supports 3 device outputs at the same time, so it’s no problem whether you use it with friends or charge multiple devices at the same time.
The digital screen can also accurately display the battery level to single digits, which is important for long-term use.
The most suitable scenarios for this camera include traveling abroad, long-term outdoor shooting, and multi-device working environments. It can be said to be the one with the “highest sense of security”.
How to choose among the four? Simply help you organize it
If classified in the simplest way:
- Thin and portable: Xiaomi magnetic ultra-thin power bank 5000 7.5W
- All-purpose for watching dramas: Xiaomi Magnetic Stand Power Bank 10000 7.5W
- Fast charging work: Xiaomi comes with a power bank 10000 67W
- Long battery life: Xiaomi comes with 20000 67W power bank
Another thing worth noting is that this time Xiaomi comes with its own 10000 67W power bank. At a price of NT$849, it may even be more practical than some magnetic models. If you don’t necessarily need magnetic suction, this would be the most balanced choice.
Conclusion
This time Xiaomi launched four power banks at once, which seems to be just a product line update, but behind the scenes it is clear that it is rearranging the needs of different user groups. From thin and light magnetic suction to high-power fast charging, to bracket and integrated cable design, each model has a clear positioning and is no longer just about capacity or price.
Especially in the two directions of integrated charging cables and high power output, Xiaomi has gradually turned the mobile power supply into a “portable power center” instead of a simple backup battery. If your impression of power banks in the past was that they were thick and slow to charge, this wave of products will actually have a significant difference in usage experience.
As for which one to choose, the key lies in your usage habits. Understanding your usual electricity usage situation is more important than simply looking at specifications.
