RedMagic launches affordable cyberpunk-themed 65 W mini GaN charger

RedMagic has officially launched the 10S Pro series in China, and alongside the new gaming phone lineup, the company has introduced a new compact charger, the DAO mini. It features a dual-port configuration, featuring two USB-C ports, both of which have support for 65 W fast charging.

When the two USB-C ports are connected, one will max out at 45 W, while the other will deliver 20 W of power (2-pack 6 feet Anker 100 W USB-C cables curr. $11.99 on Amazon). RedMagic notes that there's support for major charging protocols, including QC 3.0, PD 3.0, Apple 2.4, FCP, and SCP. This wide support means that most devices will be compatible with this fast charger.

As for the design, the company claims that the new RedMagic 65 W mini charger is 43% smaller than an average 70 W charger. It also comes with a foldable plug, and the overall outlook appears to be cyberpunk-themed, featuring a see-through panel on the side and a carbon fiber-like texture on the top.

Another highlight of the 65 W RedMagic mini charger is the GaN chip, which is said to be more efficient than regular controller chips. There are multiple protection features as well, including over-current, over-voltage, over-heating, and over-charge protection.

Price-wise, the RedMagic DAO mini 65 W charger costs CNY 119 in China, which converts to around $16.5. There's no official word on when this fast charger will make its global debut, but it's expected to launch outside the Chinese market alongside the new 10S Pro series.
