The renowned MagSafe power distribution system from Apple serves as the model for an expected improvement to the Qi wireless charging standards for Android devices. This brand-new wireless charging system, known as "Qi2," will soon have magnets attached to its surface to lock into place, prevent disconnections, and charge a device more effectively. Since the early days of the Mac, Apple has been best recognised for its MagSafe technology, which was first introduced on its computer charging connectors and is only available on those ports. Future cable-free chargers will undergo a big update thanks to the Qi2 Wireless charging standard, according to a press release from the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC). From its earlier iterations, it will go through a thorough transformation, and this time, it will focus on the magnets to give electricity.

The Magnetic Power Profile is at the heart of the new Qi2, which with its flawless alignment to its rechargeable batteries at the back will assist in efficiently charging the device.

The Qi2 will be accessible to everyone, including those with wireless-capable Android devices, according to WPC, the global group that controls wireless charging. According to the reports, this indicates that Apple's MagSafe will become the new industry standard for wireless charging in the future and will be made available later this year for all compatible devices, including Android smartphones.

Apple strongly advises using the MagSafe chargers for the iPhone, which are capable of outputting up to 15W of fast charging, despite the fact that they are compatible with the Qi wireless charging pads that are currently on the market.

The Cupertino giant previously provided instructions to third-party manufacturers on how to design MagSafe accessories that are entirely compatible with its products. When the Wireless Power Consortium announces an improvement to the Qi charging standard that would be accessible to everyone, it is stealing a concept from Apple. Others did not choose this magnetic charging because it is not the Qi wireless standard because Apple exclusively designed it for its exclusive device portfolio.
