Summary

  • Qi2-certified phones all have magnets; no need to worry anymore about false rumors.
  • Neodymium magnets for Qi2 charging are small, taking up little space compared to induction coils.
  • Pressure applied to Android manufacturers can encourage magnetic compatibility with existing and future accessories.

Will I be able to charge a qi2 phone on an OG Qi charger?

[–] amon@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago

Yes, the opposite is also true. I know people who charge their Qi1 phones on Qi2 chargers, and you can even stick a metal ring on a phone case so that the Qi2 charger can attach.
