Now this is what I am looking for. Not much of a detailed explanation but the overview of the process. It will be highly appreciated if you can recommend wireless chargers too.

Very clean video. Keep it up

Thanks for the clear and concise explanation, Shubham. Question: does adhering a ferrous metal sticker for a magnetic carphone holder affect the phone induction charging process?

[@MuhammedKLM]

Informative. Nice presentation

I recently got a wireless charging pad and apparently it was “too slow” at 7.5 watts. lol, I had been using a 5 watt wired Apple charger for my iPhone 11 for almost 1 year that the wireless one felt fast 😂
I still prefer to use the 5 watt wired charger. My boyfriend who has a Samsung has a 25 watt charger and laughs wherever he sees my charger 😂

Ok for thé tech point of view. But what is the cost of one charge vs wired charge?

[@RJpkFire]

Speed

This honestly just seems to be overengineering. Like refrigerators that order food or laundry machines that send me text messages. Really unnecessary garbage. I rather have quality, long lasting, efficient etc then some random knickknacks.
Placing a phone on a disk that's plugged into the wall vs plugging phone into a wall. What is the difference?

I am the first 😍🙏
