Any chance of a european version (without having to attach an adapter I mean)?
Honestly getting a bit tired by this weird battery-charging arms race. I honestly would prefer a slow-charger (that can still charge the phone while in use) and let the battery fill up steadily, keeping temps low and preserving the long-term health of the battery

I agree and would like to have a setting on my phone that would let me control that. But you're kind of missing the point here, this is made not only to charge phones but also laptops, in a very small package which is very convenient, for instance for traveling.
Not trusting these cheap Chinese fast chargers , usually the are very low quality and damage batteries and laptops.
China can GTFO

Who do you trust then? Almost everything is manufactured in China and it's not like Xiaomi is a no name brand that just started out, they're an established brand with a decent reputation.
Also the charger is not in direct contact with the battery, the phone, laptop or whatever device has a converter that handles the actual charging, any damage to the battery is the device responsability and not the charger.

Not the cheap a** China made stuff, you are so wrong and have no idea how the charging process works.
It looks like the overall physical design makes for less inter-compatibility for other countries. the straight US / Japan style power prongs are folded into the case. so things like Euro or Australia like plugs would require a different case... and that makes it less likely to exist. though it still might, its not like they made it so it would be a simple click on block to make it work with other Countries. which would have made it a pretty good travel charger option.....
Please make also a black version with EU plug.
I have the same charger sold under the ZMI brand. Great unit for the price. Comes with a type c cable and runs super cool with a yoga 920.

Yeah right, what do I know, your vague and generalized (and probably sinophobic) comment is a lot more accurate no doubt
I swear, the comment section on this site is getting worse and worse each day
