Based on this blog article https://www.digitec.ch/de/page/so-findest-du-das-passende-netzteil-fuer-dein-notebook-42438 I bought the Digitec 130W power supply (Digitec GaN 4-Port Fast Charger and the Digitec 100W USB C cable (Digitec USB Type C - USB Type C. Just realised the following: My Xiaomi 12 smartphone only charges slowly with it. Fast charging ("67W MAX" as my Xiaomi indicates) only works with the original power supply and cable. What is the technical background? Is there more to consider for future purchases than just the power of the power supply and cable? Thanks for the information!

Although the power adapter and cable provide sufficient power, Xiaomi supports its own charging protocol for 67 W fast charging. Therefore, the maximum charging speed usually only works with the original Xiaomi power adapter and cable or specially compatible accessories. Although universal power adapters charge the smartphone without any problems, they are often significantly slower. In addition to performance, the supported charging protocol and the right cable are also crucial.
