Battery not an issue
Performance not an issue
Only real issue might have been the recommendation and ads here and there which i almost disabled.
And when you are in a hurry? 5 mins charge is much better than what my iPhone 13 or 14 can do

My request is, it should ask this option on screen, everytime a charger is connected, so user may decide what's best for the situation..
Secondly, I know Mi's batteries are cheap, but there's always this fear of getting your phone opened up by service center, specially if its claimed to water/splash resistant.

Then you... moreI think there should be a choice. When you connect charger, you should be given choices:
Slow charging: overnight, 8 hours. 2-3 Watts maybe.
Regular charging: 2 hours, maybe 10W to 33W?
Fast charging: 67W.
Ultra fast: 120W but no more than 120.
Slow charging will ensure peaceful sleep. Sometimes when I'm about to sleep, my phone shows 17% battery, and charging it takes around 1 hour, which is no good.

Fast charging is a big ... moreAgreed, but how fast is too fast? Samsung is stuck on 25 Watt for most of its phones with flagships going upto 45W. We also have a 33 and 67 Watt as a standard in other companies.
Realme wants 240W!! 4 times!
Also, note that Xiaomi users complain about expired batteries the most. So, they buy but they complain too. Plus, batteries are now non-removable, no easy way to replace them.

Then you'll understand why 5 minutes charging time is important.
If I can get at least 50% battery with 120 Watt charger I'm very happy

But Samsung & Apple still want to convince people it's no good to have fast charging. A lot of lies. No one will keep their phone that long to where it degrades beyond 80%. That is 1600 days which equal to 5 years!

I experienced 67W and 120W fast charging, my personal opinion is that 67W is more than enough. All over that is exaggeration, if you can't survive without your phone more than 15-20 minutes then you have a serious issue.

Also they can just use a 5000mah battery and brand it as a 4000mah battery so "100%" charge can be achieved much sooner (80%).

""The whole process is monitored by 13 real-time sensors will limit the power if there is any danger whatsoever.""
This is because... let me guess... it is dangerous!
"" In fact the industry standard is 800 so if anything the next Realme GT phone will exceed it. ""
By virtue of what? some extra process maybe?
Existing owners are not too big fans of these fast charging speeds. I know GSMA users who said their batteries are killed before time.

kevinmcmurtrie, 06 Jan 2023I made some personal devices with LiPo cells. That started... morefrom what i gather they don't charge at highest wattage constantly. highest wattage is only applied during 0-40%, it drops considerably after that, getting lower the closer it gets to 100%. so 240 watt is peak charging wattage not the constant charging wattage.
