Xiaomi has rolled out its new Jinshajiang Ultra-thin Magnetic Power Bank 5000 27W in China, featuring a 6.75mm slim body and magnetic wireless charging. India availability for this portable charger is not yet confirmed.
Xiaomi has officially launched an upgraded version of its ultra-thin magnetic power bank, the Jinshajiang Ultra-thin Magnetic Power Bank 5000 27W, in its home market of China. This new accessory is now available for purchase via Xiaomi Youpin, according to reports from Newsd.in.
The key highlight of this power bank is its incredibly slim profile, measuring just 6.75mm thick. It also weighs approximately 105g, making it a highly portable option for users who want to avoid bulky chargers. The device is designed with a magnetic attachment feature, allowing compatible smartphones to snap on for wireless charging without adding significant bulk.
Key Specifications and Charging Capabilities
Under its thin exterior, the Xiaomi Jinshajiang Ultra-thin Magnetic Power Bank 5000 27W packs a 5,000mAh silicon carbon battery. This particular battery technology is known for offering better energy density in a smaller footprint, which makes sense for such a compact design.
For charging, the new power bank supports wireless output of up to 20W, a bump up from earlier versions. Users will need compatible phones to take advantage of this speed. If you prefer wired charging, the USB Type-C port can deliver a maximum of 27W. The reports also suggest it supports common charging standards like PD and QC, which is good news for broader compatibility.
Pricing and India Availability
In China, the Jinshajiang Ultra-thin Magnetic Power Bank 5000 27W is priced at 299 yuan. Based on current exchange rates, this converts to roughly INR ₹3,700-₹4,000. However, Xiaomi has not yet confirmed any plans for releasing this device in other international markets, including India. Potential Indian buyers will have to wait for an official announcement.
Comparing it to the Previous Model
This new model improves on its predecessor in several ways, though with a slight design trade-off. The earlier version was marginally thinner at 6mm and weighed 98g. It offered 15W wireless charging and up to 22.5W wired charging.
While the new power bank is slightly thicker at 6.75mm and a bit heavier at 105g, it significantly enhances charging speeds. The upgrade to 20W wireless and 27W wired charging indicates that Xiaomi's focus with this iteration was primarily on faster power delivery. For users prioritising quicker top-ups, this trade-off in thickness might be well worth it.
