I have a poco x8 pro, which supports 100w pps charging. I use a ugreen x763 charger and 240w cable with it, for some reason it charges slower than the included charger combo. 55m with the ugreen and around 40m with the inbox charger. Both share the same scenario with 21% left before charge and use a phone cooler to prevent overheating. Top speed and intelligent charging enabled.

Yes I know that charge speed drops over time, but it feels like the mi turbo spec has more consistent charge speed. Can someone add more info to this?

I have a 100w charger included with my phone. when tested with a usb power tester, it supports 100w pps and 65w fixed pd despite using usb a to c. Can it run full speed to charge other pd devices like laptops?

I see that xiaomi phones from midrange to flagship use either glass or fiberglass back panel. To be honest, fiberglass ruins the phone's value, it's still plastic after all. I don't want to spend $700 on a 17t just to still receive a plastic back. Even the lower price poco x8 pro still has proper glass back. Sure fiberglass doesn't shatter like glass, but still scratches easily like plastic. Using fiberglass for the redmi note series is reasonable, but for the t series it's not. Do you think xiaomi should ditch fiberglass from the upper midrange and up?

In case you haven't known:
Wrapper-leegao bcn to etc2 transcoding is still in prototype. Essentially it converts bcn textures that aren't supported for arm gpu, to etc2 which are supported and hardware accelerated. Much better performance in exchange for lower quality textures.

I'm planning to get a fx5 lite fan to use with my x5 lite for emulation, but i have some concerns. The contact area of the cooler is quite small, and i don't know if the fan actually cools the phone or just a gimmick. I checked reviews and in one review, the temps don't change much at all when using the fan. Do I need a thermal pad for it to work?
