Looks good. Wonder what the difference will be between wireless and wired charging

TheDude · July 23, 2020, 5:52pm

No PD over wireless charging. Guessing its going to have wireless and a PD in/out type c port and one type A

Edit Just looked at the pic🤦‍♂️

Do you mean in terms of efficiency?

TechMan · July 23, 2020, 6:32pm

Do you know if the PD is just input, or input and output?

professor · July 23, 2020, 6:54pm

The obvious ones.

Wired, 20Ah 18W in+out.

The unknown is it 7.5W or higher wireless? Two ways this could be constructed.

Metal sides and underneath with ceramic top, 10W-11W wireless, launch price $54-$58, discounted price $33-$35

All plastic, 7.5W wireless, launch price $50, discounted price $30-$31.

I am very much interested in this, 7.5W fast charging via the Wireless would be the best thing! Look forward to hearing updates on it

thanks @Insider for the information!

paulstevenewing · July 23, 2020, 7:39pm

Just what I’ve been waiting for @Insider
@professor predicted something better will come quickly after the first wireless PowerCore was released. For once I glad I kept my money in my wallet!

Insider · July 23, 2020, 7:57pm

99% sure it’s PD input and output.

ktkundy · July 23, 2020, 8:04pm

Ooooo I’m kind of interested a lot depends on if it’s pd input and output because if it’s just pd in then I don’t really think I’ll go for it. Also depends on the price but definitely happy to see the pd port being added

ikari04warrior · July 23, 2020, 8:05pm

Hope it’s 10w wireless this time around

Shenoy · July 23, 2020, 8:19pm

Being a PD, what is the price expected for it, $55 ~$60?

professor · July 23, 2020, 8:32pm

Depends on the wireless Wattage. To handle the thermals of 10W it has to be metal sides+bottom to conduct the heat away, that adds about $2-$3 cost, for that to be 40% off, means the launch price has to be $4-$5 more. If it’s 7.5W, given it’s dimensions, can be done with plastic so launch price $4-$5 less.

99% confident 18W PD in+out.

You say $55-$60, we’re agreeing within $1-$2 difference, I got $54-$58.

Shenoy · July 23, 2020, 9:00pm

Hope the price stays in that range This is something I may invest on getting one for home

Shivam_Shah · July 23, 2020, 9:07pm

Yep efficiency wise

paulstevenewing · July 23, 2020, 9:22pm

Yes @ikari04warrior same here.
10w would be fine, 15w would be better as it’s the fastest my mobile will charge at wirelessly.

ikari04warrior · July 23, 2020, 9:30pm

The fastest my S10+ can wireless charge is 12w. I’m ready to upgrade soon, but I’m hesitant because newer Samsungs don’t have the headphone jack anymore

gobran.andrew · July 23, 2020, 10:03pm

Ah heck yeah! This is the ultimate combination of form and function. Can’t wait to get it!

paulstevenewing · July 23, 2020, 10:05pm

Thats correct @ikari04warrior
For those that have a good pair of headphones with the 3.5mm i can see why thats a concern. But i think that’s the way most mobile manufacturers have gone or are going.
My S20 came with a decent pair of headphones that connect via the USBC port.
To be fair i use the wireless now and keep the wired set as a backup.

Shenoy · July 23, 2020, 11:11pm

I have not used wired charging, not once with my iphone 11 pro… The condition now suits, with phone sitting on the wireless charging stand… This wireless charger should solve issues in the long term

One modification i would to see on this wireless charger is to have some kind of grip to hold the phone tight in place… Some kind of notch or a elastic strip… Or something similar
