The recently unveiled Samsung Galaxy S25 signals a shift in Samsung’s approach to wireless charging, now incorporating Qi2 technology. But while Samsung's implementation of Qi2 may seem like a leap forward at first glance, there’s a catch. To truly benefit from the advantages of Qi2 wireless charging, Samsung Galaxy S25 users will need a compatible magnetic case.
In this blog we’ll be breaking down the essentials of Qi2 technology, what it means for Galaxy S25 users, and how Hyper's range of Qi2 chargers can enhance your charging solutions.
Qi2 is the latest evolution of wireless charging technology, developed and standardised by the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC). What makes Qi2 stand out is its added support for magnetic alignment, ensuring that your device and charger line up perfectly every time.
For Samsung users, this technology resembles Apple’s MagSafe system, which has been benefiting iPhone users since the iPhone 12. With magnetic alignment, wireless charging becomes faster, safer, and more seamless, minimizing energy loss and reducing the chance of your device slipping while charging.
Samsung’s adoption of Qi2 in the Galaxy S25 marks the company’s debut in leveraging magnetic wireless charging technology. However, to access Qi2 functionality, users must use Samsung’s new magnetic cases designed for the Galaxy S25. Without these cases, your Galaxy S25 will charge like its predecessors via standard 15W Qi wireless charging, offering none of Qi2’s key benefits.
Although Galaxy 25 users can only take advantage of Qi2 capabilities when using their magnetic cases, its still a significant shift for Samsung users, providing an opportunity to explore the broader ecosystem of Qi2-compatible chargers and accessories.
While Samsung's move may not be groundbreaking, Qi2’s potential is undeniable, particularly for improving wireless charging accessibility and practicality. Here’s what Galaxy S25 users can look forward to with the upgrade:
No more fiddling to align your phone just right. Qi2’s magnetic alignment ensures perfect positioning on the charging stand, maximising efficiency without wasted energy.
Paired with the right magnetic case, Qi2 offers a stronger, seamless connection, which enables faster and more stable wireless charging than in non-magnetic setups.
Improper alignment with traditional wireless chargers can cause overheating or inefficient charging. Qi2 technology minimizes such risks, extending the lifespan of your phone’s battery.
Qi2 expands compatibility to a larger array of devices beyond the Samsung ecosystem, making it easier to find chargers, car mounts, and wallets that just work.
Say goodbye to messy cables cluttering your workspace or nightstand. With wireless charging, all you need is a sleek charging stand to power up your device.
