The OnePlus 13 is coming, and it will support magnetic wireless charging, but with a twist. The twist being that it’s apparently not going to have magnets inside, but will instead rely on magnetic cases to hook up to magnetic wireless chargers.
This information comes straight from a OnePlus exec on Weibo, but since the original text is in Chinese, we have to rely on machine translation and that can always go awry, so do keep that in mind.
The exec in question has also confirmed that OnePlus will launch wood grain design cases for the OnePlus 13, although the wording strongly hints at these not being made out of real wood, instead simply emulating the look of wood.
So… Something that’s available for every other phone out there?
Oneplus has been notorious for some reason with wireless charging. They include it on and off on their smartphones. This phone may also include magnetic wireless charging with/without a case. But, yeah true for other smartphones…
Technically, only for iphone for the time being
What do you mean? I have an android phone with a case that supports magnetic charging
Oh, I meant embedded magnetic. Qi2
Oh, sure. That’s what I meant, though that, the OnePlus doesn’t have embedded magnets either, so it’s a bit of a silly thing to claim
