The next evolution in wireless charging
Building on the success of the Qi standard, the Qi v2.0 standard will unify the world under one global wireless charging standard for handheld and mobile devices. Foremost among the coming Qi v2.0 products is Qi2 with a faster, more efficient charging experience that’s ready for the future.
Say hello to a new, improved wireless charging experience with Qi2
Qi2 uses a magnetic power profile which creates a perfect alignment between receivers and transmitters. This means more efficient charging with less energy loss and less energy loss means faster charging. And when you charge your Qi2 Certified phone with a Q12 Certified charger you’ll get up to 15W of power for faster charging. Last but not least, the magnetic attachment also eliminates the need to find that “charging sweet spot” between phone and charger. Qi2 finds that for you every time as the magnets lock in place.
One global standard
Qi v2.0 will unify the industry under one global standard, simplifying the wireless charging landscape for consumers and retailers alike.
A road to faster charging
Qi2 will deliver faster charging - up to 15W - when paired with other another Qi2 device, but the Qi v2.0 standard will also pave the way for future higher-powered, faster wireless charging that will be safe, efficient, and won't damage your phone.
Innovative features
Qi2’s magnetic locking feature supports new product form factors, like AR/VR headsets and new types of accessories.
Charging with less waste
Charging cords wear out. Wireless chargers don’t, which means less electronic waste goes to landfill.
When will Qi2 be available?
More than 100 Qi2 devices are lined up and going through Qi v2.0 certification testing. Qi2 products will begin appearing at retail in time for the yearend holidays. To learn more, read the Qi v2.0 media release.
