That's nice although there is still zero adoption:(
7 0 ReplyIts not zero. HMD has launched a phone which is QI2 compatible and oneplus 13 also supports this standard
2 0 ReplyOkay so not exactly zero, but until a heavy hitter like Samsung won't even consider, worldwide adoption is going to be low - their flagship just stuck with Qi 1, even though the standard existed for about two or three years at this point.
2 0 ReplySamsung doesn't bring hardware upgrades until 2-3years later. They have stagnated and become more like apple.
