  • 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.
