Xiaomi has officially announced the Redmi Turbo 5 Max, expanding the Turbo series with a strong focus on battery longevity and fast charging. Revealed by CEO Lei Jun, the device is the first Xiaomi smartphone to feature a 9000mAh Jinshajiang battery, designed to support up to 1600 charging cycles.
To emphasize long-term durability, Xiaomi is offering a five-year battery warranty during the first sale period. Under this policy, users are eligible for a free battery replacement if battery health falls below 80 percent within five years, with servicing fully covered through official Xiaomi service centers.
Redmi Turbo 5 Max supports 100W PPS wired fast charging, powered by Xiaomi’s Surge P3 charging chip, matching charging speeds seen on Xiaomi flagship models. It also includes 27W reverse wired charging, allowing the phone to function as a power bank. Bypass charging is supported to reduce heat and battery wear during extended gaming or heavy use.
Xiaomi claims a record energy density of 894Wh/L, the highest in its history. In internal testing, the Turbo 5 Max reportedly outlasted a competing smartphone with a 10,000mAh battery by 43 minutes.
The device is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9500s chipset and is expected to launch in China later this month, with January 29 widely speculated as the launch date.
