In detail, the brand discussed their battery’s typical charging process in real-time. They explained that when the battery has fully charged or nears full capacity, the new technology will switch the phone to a ‘floating charging mode’ to avoid bulging and explosions.

Simply put, the device transits between the regular charging cycle, and then enters the floating charge sequence when the battery is fully juiced up.

While this happens, the patented software/system monitors the process in real-time and makes sure that the battery doesn’t bulge or explode when either the surrounding temperature is high, or when high voltage pumps through the cable.

At this time, the new Xiaomi patent remains nothing more than just a blueprint for something in the future, and it’s unknown if the company is pursuing anything in this regard.
