It’s based on a numbering system for each charging type. For example –
Charging – one lightning bolt
Fast charging – two lightning bolts
Turbo charging – three lightning bolts
Not having a 27w charger to hand, I can’t test that part of it, but I tested with a bog standard charger from another phone and yeah, it only lit up with one lightning bolt.
Wasn’t much SS in that theatre.

Und das heißt…
Offtopic but check Wolfenstein:The New Colossus
,Symbols like swastika are removed and switched with Iron cross in game when it was released in Germany

Oh.
*Oh.*

It’s called “Starkstrom”
Ah, a man of culture.
next phone is coming with Vril antrieb
Nazi SS symbol

It’s not just two “s”, it’s the stylised “lightning bolt” nature of it (hence why it accidentally happened with a charging icon).
A lot harder to accidentally do than simply ‘ss’.
Asian probably never noticed that since we’ve never directly affected by them.
I’m asian, and I didn’t even know it was from SS tho before this thread. So yeah, it’s a very high chance just a coincidence.
Can’t wait to stop filthy westerners from buying our phones /s
It is the final solution to your charging needs.
Why have the percentage inside not next to the icon?
They don’t have to think through this though. It looks good.
Oh no… Didn’t even notice…
Such symbols are not allowed in video games and movies released in Germany?
r/UnexpectedHitler
More likely for SchutzStaffel 🙂
It is, if you don’t show the %
Can’t wait to be shunned from my family when I get my 9T Pro this Christmas 😀

Not sure your average Chinese person thinks any more about the Nazis than your average western European person thinks about the Japanese.
Why they just couldn’t stay with previous one? Wtf
is battery life better?
I love this.
WWII only mentioned in my textbook when I’m on high school in the past, the history class mostly covers our national history. We rarely learning something like WWII or other international incident. Swastikas rarely shows up, let alone SS logo.
History class it’s like 2nd-class here, only got 2 hours lecture in school. We (at least in my country) pass the time in class learning science and math lol.
Hope they don’t get in problems…
Does the phone get as hot as an oven?
Inb4 Xiaomi banned in Germany
Asian here, we never learnt about the SS logo. I only knew about it today because of this thread
Have you updated to MIUI 11? The change came with that. Prior to that on my Mi 9, the fast charge symbol did indeed have a circle around it.
r/xiaomemes
How much of your schooling do you remember decades after you left school (if we’re to take into account the average employee on Xiaomi’s design teams)? Specifically about historical events on the other side of the world that really didn’t have much or even any effect on your side?
I’m sure the average Chinese person remembers most of what they were told about Nazi Germany but forgets many of the tiny details, such as the logo for a long-dead paramilitary group.
Well, it would have to be connected to something capable of fast charging the phone, soooo …..
Oh. Yeah that’s way too similar
Tbh their symbol is simply 2 S’s , a lot of things will look similar without much thought.
Yup. German here. It is a bit weird indeed.

Awks
There honestly aren’t many changes. Everything works exactly as it did before, but with additions. On my Mi 9 it’s a tad smoother as well. The update to Android 10/MIUI 11 was done quickly and nothing was lost.
It’s well worth it imo.
Sorry for my ignorance, but what does it look like?
fast charging on mine is lightning with circle around it. when did it change?
Its blitzcharging.
Good point, I didn’t think of that. Typically the circumstances and the intentions are valued at least to some degree. This is probably more common with the swastika as a religious symbol (see “Falun Gong”), I’m not a lawyer though, so YMMV. 😉
Keine Schwäche zeigen!
Flash/Superman charge
I still don’t have muiai 11 on my 9t pro, anyone else?
Do you get triggered by everything that looks like *lEftIsM* or what?
inb4 sjws
It’s not a new icon. Already there in MIUI 10. I miss the previous one…
It stops charging at 88%
FÜR DAS VATERLAND
Now we’re going to blame company for doing two lightings one to another for trying to recreate nazi symbol what’s wrong with internet these days
Does our phone work for Gestapo?
LmAo
haha yeah dont show it in public if you are a German XD Edit: Nazi ui

It’s based on the type of charge it’s receiving –
**Charge** – one lightning bolt
**Fast charge** – two lightning bolts
**Turbo charge** – three lightning bolts
I haven’t really noticed a difference, but I had been using dark mode prior to the update. Maybe a small bit better, but I can’t say for sure. At the very least, it’s not worse 😉
ah ok. im staying on 10 for now. prefer not to have changes. hehe
Übercharge
Well…
They’re Chinese. They don’t feel the need to (over)think things through. The over attention to wokeness hasn’t and isn’t likely to take hold in China.
It’s a double lightning bolt. That’s what it is and that’s what it looks like. Xaiomi aren’t in thrall to the snowflake “cancel” generation. Most of their business is in countries that haven’t been infected by that yet.
