Kuxiu's solid-state power bank now has more capacity and faster wireless charging

"Seven months after launching its first semi-solid state battery that used a safer and longer-lasting solid-liquid mixed electrolyte, Kuxiu is introducing a new version with some welcome upgrades. The S3 has twice the capacity of the S2 at 10,000mAh - 5,000mAh at 7.7V (38.5Wh) - that the company says is enough to nearly double an iPhone's battery life, but that will vary depending on the model. The Kuxiu S3 is also Qi2.2-compatible so it can wirelessly charge compatible devices at up to 25W."

"Its larger battery means it's over 100g heavier than the 145g S2, but Kuxiu has increased the number of N52 magnets it uses from 16 to 18 to help reduce the risk of the power bank being accidentally knocked off your phone. There's an integrated kickstand now on the back, a small display showing its remaining capacity and charging status, and a built-in cable for charging other devices through a USB-C port with power delivery rated at up to 35W."

Kuxiu introduced the S3, a semi-solid-state power bank with 10,000mAh total capacity (5,000mAh at 7.7V/38.5Wh), roughly doubling the S2. The S3 supports Qi2.2 wireless charging at up to 25W and includes a USB-C port with built-in cable and up to 35W power delivery. The design adds an integrated kickstand, a small display for remaining capacity and charging status, and increases N52 magnets from 16 to 18 to improve magnetic hold. The larger battery makes the S3 over 100g heavier than the 145g S2. The S3 costs $149.98 (temporarily $68.99) and maintains about 80% capacity after 1,000 cycles, reducing degradation and fire risk.
