Samsung announced its new flagship Galaxy series models this week.
Lacks Qi2 support
But there are two things to keep in mind: only the most expensive Ultra model is equipped with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, and another notable thing was discovered: the new models do not support Qi2, the new charging standard announced last November and that the iPhone 15 already supported in September:
“The advantage of the new generation are things that Apple fans have been using for a long time: magnets and MagSafe-like speeds (Apple was involved in the development). It took time: the Qi1 spec was launched 15 years ago, but now The Wireless The Power Consortium (WPC) has finally announced that the first products have almost passed the certification process: the first ones will be launched just in time even for Christmas Eve. It was promised in January this year. Only the devices with the magnetic power profile they receive the Qi2 label, reports The Verge. Qi1 and 2 are also compatible with each other.”
Fight with mag magazines
The beauty of Qi2 is that the standard implements support for faster magnetic charging, which iPhone customers have long benefited from. Not only that, the speed is even better, but this does not help customers of Samsung’s latest flagship model, the Ultra, which does not support the standard, but also has problems when connecting Apple MagSafe and Qi2 products – the S La pen no longer works.
“Currently, manufacturers are experiencing issues with magnets interfering with the S-Pen, causing the pen to temporarily stop working. As a result, manufacturers are trying to find a solution,” reports @thisistechtoday on
