Compatibility Test

Huawei Mate 70 supports wired super fast charging up to 66W (20V/3.25A), compatible with 20V/4.4A, 11V/6A, 10V/4A, 10V/2.25A, 4.5V/5A, 5V/4.5A super fast charging, and compatible with 9V/2A fast charging. It also supports 50W Huawei wireless super fast charging and 7.5W wireless reverse charging.

Original Charger

Charge with the Huawei 66W charger, the power is about 8.85V 5.92A 52.41W.

It is very compatible with Huawei chargers.

We have compiled the test results into a bar chart. The maximum charging power reaches 53.88W.

Third-party Chargers

We also used a variety of third-party chargers during the test. Let’s take a look at the results.

The charging power provided by the third-party charger tested is stable, and the voltage is mostly maintained at 9V.

We have compiled the test results into a bar chart. The charging power of the tested third-party chargers is very stable, maintaining at 9W and 20W. In addition, the charger that supports SCP protocol and UFCS has higher power than other chargers.

Power Banks

The third-party power banks tested can generally reach 9V.

We have compiled the test results into a bar chart. The maximum charging power reaches 13.18W.

Wired Reverse Charging Test

Use Huawei Mate 70 to charge AirPods Pro via a dual USB-C cable, and the output power of the phone is 5.0V 0.29A 1.47W.

Full Charging Test

We use the original 66W charger to fully charge the Huawei Mate 70. And put them into a 25°C (77℉) thermotank throughout the test.

At first, the voltage is around 9V. The charging curve can be divided into seven parts. The power was around 52W for the first 2 minutes. Then, the power gradually drops to 46W, 33W, 29W, and 24W in turn. At about 51 minutes, the phone displays that the battery is fully charged, but charging is still ongoing, and the voltage drops from 9V to 5V. It takes 1 hour and 5 minutes to be fully charged.

We also turn it into another curve. The Huawei 66W charger can charge the Huawei Mate 70 to 50% in 21 minutes. And it can reach 80% in 35 minutes, and 100% in 1 hour and 5 minutes.

Temperature Test

We also recorded the highest temperature on the front and back after charging for 10 minutes, 20 minutes, and 30 minutes.

10 minutes Charging

After 10 minutes, the maximum temperature on the front is 35.5℃ (95.9 ℉).

The back is 36.6℃ (97.88 ℉). 

20 minutes Charging

After 20 minutes, the maximum temperature on the front is 37.3℃ (99.14 ℉).

The back is 38.3℃ (100.94 ℉). 

30 minutes Charging

After 30 minutes, the maximum temperature on the front is 37.2℃ (98.96 ℉).

The back is 38℃ (100.4 ℉). 

We also turn it into another curve. The temperature during charging is between 35.5-38.3℃. The temperature reaches its highest after 20 minutes of charging when the charging power is about 32W. The temperature can basically be controlled within 39°C during charging, which has better temperature control than the Mate 70 Pro+.
