Compatibility Test

Huawei Mate 70 Pro+ supports wired super fast charging up to 100W (20V/5A), 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 80W Huawei wireless super fast charging and 20W wireless reverse charging. Next, let's do the charging compatibility test. 

Original Charger

We used some Huawei chargers during the test.

Charge with the Huawei 100W charger, the power is about 18.22V 4.64A 84.58W.

It is very compatible with Huawei chargers.

We have compiled the test results into a bar chart. The maximum charging power reaches 89.20W.

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 12W and 22W. 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 20.04W.

Wired Reverse Charging Test

Use Huawei Mate 70 Pro+ to charge AirPods Pro via a dual USB-C cable, and the output power of the phone is 4.91V 0.46A 2.23W.

Full Charging Test

We use the original 100W charger to fully charge the Huawei Mate 70 Pro+. And put them into a 25°C (77℉) thermotank throughout the test.

At first, the voltage is around 18V. The charging curve can be divided into nine parts. When the power is just turned on, the peak power reaches 88W. The power was around 67W for the first 4 minutes. Then, the power gradually drops to 57W and 33W in turn. At about 24 minutes, the power rose to 43W. After that, the power gradually drops to 31W and 25W iturn. At about 38 minutes, the phone displays that the battery is fully charged, but charging is still ongoing, and the voltage drops from 18V to 5V. It takes 58 minutes to be fully charged.

We also turn it into another curve. The Huawei 100W charger can charge the Huawei Mate 70 Pro+ to 50% in 15 minutes. And it can reach 80% in 27 minutes, and 100% in 58 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 40.7℃ (105.26 ℉).

The back is 40.8℃ (105.44 ℉). 

20 minutes Charging

After 20 minutes, the maximum temperature on the front is 41.4℃ (106.52 ℉).

The back is 41.6℃ (106.88 ℉). 

30 minutes Charging

After 30 minutes, the maximum temperature on the front is 39℃ (102.2 ℉).

The back is 38.9℃ (102.02 ℉). 

We also turn it into another curve. The temperature during charging is between 38.9-41.6℃. The temperature reaches its highest after 20 minutes of charging when the charging power is about 43W. The temperature rises significantly after 10-20 minutes, and the temperature is not low during charging. It is not recommended to use it while charging.

Summary of ChargerLAB

Huawei Mate 70 Pro + maintains the high quality and high standards of the Mate series. It is a flagship mobile phone that combines advantages in appearance design, performance configuration, imaging capabilities, etc. It supports 100W wired charging. In the compatibility test, the original charger has a maximum charging power of 89.20W. At the same time, the charging power of the tested third-party chargers and power banks is very stable, maintaining at 12W and 22W. In addition, the charger that supports SCP protocol and UFCS has higher power than other chargers.

It took about 58 minutes to fully charge it with the original charging set, and during the charging process, the maximum temperature of the phone was 41.6°C, which is within a reasonable range considering the high charging power.

Overall, this time the Huawei Mate 70 Pro+ has a more obvious upgrade in battery capacity, charging power, and wireless charging. Compared with the previous flagship models that were more conservative in charging, this time the 5700 mAh large-capacity battery + 100W wired + 80W wireless appears to be more powerful. ChargerLAB will also test the wireless charging of Huawei Mate 70 Pro+ in the future.
