Huawei launches a flagship 100W portable charger with UFCS 1.2
Huawei has introduced a new flagship power bank in China: the Huawei 100W 12000 Power Bank. Priced at ¥399 (roughly $55), the compact portable charger combines high-speed output with wide protocol compatibility and multiple safety certifications. It also becomes the first power bank to earn UFCS 1.2 certification from the Faster Charging Association (FCA), marking a milestone for universal fast charging standards.
Key product features
Battery capacity and output
The device packs a 12000mAh battery built from flagship-grade lithium-ion cells and supports up to 100W output from a single port. Huawei claims the power bank can top up a Mate 70 Pro to around 42% in just 10 minutes — a real-world indicator of its high-watt charging potential.
UFCS 1.2 and charging protocols
UFCS 1.2 certification enables up to 40W unauthenticated charging on compatible UFCS devices, helping ensure faster and more interoperable charging across brands. The power bank also supports PD (Power Delivery), PPS, QC (Quick Charge) and Huawei’s SCP, making it compatible with smartphones, tablets, laptops, game consoles, headphones and many other USB-C devices.
Design and portability
At just 15.7mm thick and equipped with a built-in charging cable, the unit is designed for travel. The 12000mAh capacity translates to an airline-compliant energy rating (well under 100Wh), so users can carry it on most flights without issue.
Safety, reliability and certifications
Huawei emphasizes safety with 13-layer protection, millisecond-level temperature control and more than 200 reliability tests, including drop and compression checks. The power bank also carries China’s CCC mandatory certification, the EU CE mark and international CB safety certification — useful assurances for global-minded buyers.
Comparisons and advantages
Compared with many competing portable chargers, Huawei’s new model stands out for being the first with UFCS 1.2 certification and for integrating a built-in cable in a slim chassis. Where some 100W power banks focus solely on peak output, Huawei pairs high wattage with multi-protocol support and aviation-friendly battery sizing. For users who value cross-brand fast charging and travel convenience, these advantages make it a strong contender in the portable charger market.
Use cases and who it's for
The Huawei 100W 12000 Power Bank is aimed at frequent travelers, remote workers, content creators and gamers who need reliable, high-speed power on the go. It’s suitable for fast-charging flagship phones, powering USB-C laptops in a pinch, topping up tablets and keeping accessories like headphones and controllers charged during long sessions.
Market relevance and availability
The launch underscores growing industry momentum behind standardized fast-charging ecosystems like UFCS, which can reduce fragmentation and improve cross-brand compatibility. The power bank is available now in China in Modern Black and Ceramic White for ¥399 (~$55). Huawei has not announced an international launch date yet, but the product’s global safety certifications suggest a potential broader rollout in the future.
