Ordering the Mi 6 - Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers

Hey!
So I am in China and have managed to register my address for the Mi 6 using my girlfriend's account and phone number. However, this doesn't say anywhere that it's reserved for me.
If anyone is ordering it as well, do you know if that's all I have to do at this stage? Or is there something else I can also do?
No payment has been taken or made at this stage so it all seems a bit ambiguous.
Thanks!

Wait until April 28, go to mi.com, you'll know what to do.

Sounds good yeah that's what I thought, but it's kind of confusing for them to say "hey register interest with us here" etc.
Anyway, April 28 it is!

Please upload some "portrait mode" photos taken by mi 6 (Do they really look like their advertised pictures?) ... How's the headphone output quality with "usb c" adaptar? And is the stock charger a "quick charge 3.0" charger?
Thanks in advance

Hey I took some photos today with the portrait mode and they look really nice. As nice as the advertising ones I would say, as advertising ones usually have a little editing on them to give them a little extra pop.
Posting this from my iPhone 7 so I'll post the portrait pics as soon as I transfer them over later.
I haven't checked the headphone adapter as yet, but if it's anything like the iPhone 7 adapter, it should be fine. I don't foresee problems in this case.
The stock charged is a 3A charger. I don't think it has QC3 written on it but it should be judging by the ampere rating.

Haha I am still here. Let me PM you.

Mi6 arrived ( ordered from oppomart ) it has 3A charger and as I can see it is really intelligent... starts charging with low Amps and 5V then slowly goes up to 6V 2,8A... if the phone agree with this..
If I charge with my old QC2.0 charger then it is 5V 1,4A, if I charge the Mi6 using my QC3.0 charger then it is 6V 1.9A. Check my Video on the youtube, I cannot post external link here but you can search for Xiaomi Mi6 original charger on youtube.

yesh the wireless charging is like the palm pre you have to put on a replacement battery door BUT im going to buy this charging kit anyways cos the battery door is said to feel more premium coated in a rubber the induction coil is in the door.
the charging is like the palm pre you just put the device on a flat peice of plastic vola its charging
Is there any sample pic of it?

It'd be awesome to have. Until your cat knocks it off in the middle of night. Plus it's easier to plug it in then set it on something when I pass out

I'd heard that the stand was around £35. For a moment I thought Clove had got one, but that turns out to be the normal desk stand (I think, see http://www.clove.co.uk/accessories/samsung/samsung-galaxy-s3/cables-chargers)
Like the idea of the wireless charger because I've seen how easy it is, based on the three HP Touchpad's we've got in the house.

The Touchpad folks in the house haven't noticed any difference in charge time (apart from the initial one) between wired and wireless charging.
That said, the difference in the initial charge was quite long, (one TP was wired charged, the other two wirelessly), in the order of an hour if memory serves me. And if the Samsung charger is anything like the HP TP one then you don't have to be too precise with your device positioning.
Just wish that the Samsung S3's charger also allowed a headphone out - kind of like the old (?) Apple iPhone/iPod dock (the one with the remote). It'd be nice to give that Wolfson DAC a spin by using S3 as an iPod replacement.
The important questions are, is it compatible with my current PowerMat that I own. Also, I have read about PowerMat's new NFC charge card that should be out sometime this year. You swap out the NFC card with their NFC+Charge card and there is no need to switch phone backs.
September? WTH!
http://www.theverge.com/2012/5/9/3009404/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-wireless-charge-kit-september
Yes what is the hold up?
What I've heard is that basically it was a last minute addition and was never going to be ready on time - it wasn't delayed, it was always expected to come this late after launch. Might get the LG Optimus LTE2 instead, as that also comes with wireless charging apparently.

[Q] Can I charge it with an Energizer Dual ?

Hi !
I want to buy this Qi charger : http://www.amazon.com/Energizer-Qi-Enabled-Position-Inductive-Charger/dp/B0041RRORA/
And I want to know if there will be no problem for charging my Nexus 5 and my Moto 360 at the same time ?
My watch will not explode for exemple ?
Thank you
QI is a standard, it should charge and charge with the appropriate amount of power.

Just remember, if it doesnt' work, dont' hate me. I have a Samsung QI charger and it works on my 2nd gen Nexus 7 as well as my Moto 360. Well, it did before I put a metal band on it and now my watch doesn't lay flat on it.

I left a message on huwei contact form (GERMANY) about 2 weeks ago and got reply today.
They told me that there is no charging dock planned...

Was it just a piece of double sided tape and a cap from a water bottle (dasani, evian, etc..)? Cause that's what I used.
Looks Awesome. But I would be afraid the charging pins would not line up.

Magnetic Chargers

So I have been ordering different magnetic chargers for the 7 Pro but I haven't been able to find one that supports warp charge or even dash charge.
Does NOT Warp/Dash charge:
1. Volta original and XL
2. KRIPT
3. SIKAI original
4. Digital Ant Gen-X
5. Smart&Cool GenX
6. ELECJET MagJet
7. UGI
8. TOPK
9. NetDot
10. Any generic round ones that go by the name "Magnetic"
11. Soclim
12. USLION
13. FLOVEME
14. MBK
15. Yichumy
Basically any round one or any of them that doesn't support at least 5A
Warp/Dash Charge Compatible and data transfer+android auto:
1. Volta 2.0 from Amazon ($26 ships from US, same cable as SIKAI just more than twice the price )
2. SIKAI 5A from Amazon ($10.99 Ships from USA, Same cable as the Volta 2.0)
SIKAI 5A from Aliexpress ($4.49 Ships from China)
3. SIKAI 5A with wireless charger pad from Amazon ($20.99 ships from US)
4. Wsken (note you have to order both the plug from Amazon and inserts from Amazon) ($11.99 for plus and $12.99 for 2 inserts)
5. Generic From Alibaba ($1.70 from China, unconfirmed but looks identical to Volta and SIKAI 5A)
6. Generic Docking Station from Alibaba ($4.50 each and $4.49 for shipping from China, unconfirmed but made by the same manufacturers as Volta and SIKAI and the above generic one)
7. SIKAI Docking Station from Amazon ($12.99 ships from US)
SIKAI Docking Station from Aliexpress ($8.79 from China)
8. 20 pin generic ebay ($13.56 from China)
20 pin from Amazon ($25 from US)
It looks like if the cable supports 5A and/or Huawei Supercharge it will support warp but unconfirmed. One interesting thing to note, with some of my non-oem dash chargers it didn't recognize dash charger. It only worked with OEM and TITACUTE. Which I found interesting.

I just got one from Amazon. The problem is that while it's charging fine, it does not do Warp Charging. That's bad because when you need the warp charge for a quick charge you have to fiddle out the connector. Looking for a higher power charger, like the ones for laptops.
---------- Post added at 05:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:42 PM ----------
I am wondering whether something like this works for our phone, which you got listed under #6. I think I am just going to order it. Can always return.

update: the Upmely, Knaive US and the ELECJET look very similar. They all seem to support phones according to the pictures and some comments. I ordered the Upmely because it has more reviews with higher number of stars and reads "more human more space" lol. We know where that's coming from . Will report back here once I give that a try.
cheers

Any idea if that works with warp?
Does anyone know of a magnetic charge adapter that does not stick out so much? I have one but would love one that does not stick out and is flush with my case.
Apparently warp charging needs the original cable to work. This adapter attached to the original cable is supposed to work
https://www.amazon.com/Wsken-Magnet...obile_desktop?_encoding=UTF8&m=A32NUH5KLWSNRD
I didn't get one yet because it looks like it's sticks out more than the one I have that doesn't do warp. But I may cave and get one . I charge my phone over night so now I'm going to check to see how slow it charges so I can compare
This one may work as well.

Hmm I wonder why it didn't work for me. Maybe the cable?
I've seen several guys in Oneplus FB groups swear the Volte 2.0 does Dash. The Amazon listing for it says it transmits @ 5A, so that gels.
All the OEM Dashes from years past are doimg Warp.
My Titicute Dash cables I bought last year I can atest do Warp.
Volte 2.0 seems a safe bet. Worth giving a chance.

Did you test the original Oneplus cable that came with phone to Warp charge @joshuadjohnson22 ?
Seems a silly question, but I did notice something the day I got my phone and tested things:
For some reason I expected Warp charging to show up as green on my Ambient Display. Dash has always showed up blue and regular chargers white.
When I plugged in factory 7P cable, it was only blue. Nothing telling me what kind of charge.
It wasn't till I had the phone in lock screen that the Warp indicator showed up. ?*

Let us know how it works out. Pics if possible please. I'm hesitant because it looks like it protrudes more then mine. For comparison it takes 3 hours to charge using two different magnetic cables I tested with the warp charger..

sellers usually don't understand (and don't give a damn) about original chargers, even amazon is filled with fake ones, i'm lucky to have owned a redmi note 10 pro and i use its charger knowing it's 100% original
