The company’s new smartphones do not have Qi2 wireless charging built in natively. Just give me my magnetic Android phone already!

Last year, none of Samsung's phones offered support for Qi2 magnetic wireless charging. However, there was hope that would change after Samsung said it would launch compatible devices in 2025. Unfortunately,

The world was super excited at the announcement of Qi2 back at the end of 2023, because we all assumed it would mean Apple’s MagSafe magnets inside Android phones, opening up a massive catalog of accessories that only iPhones had previously been able to use.

The Samsung Galaxy S25 series isn't always known for the fastest charging speeds, but is Qi2 or MagSafe wireless charging supported?

With its new Galaxy S25 series, Samsung is finally adding Qi2 support. Sort of. You’ll need a case to take full advantage of it, and Spigen’s new cases are ready and compatible with Qi2 on the Galaxy S25 series, and taking things a step to solve a big problem.

Only third-party partners of Samsung will produce Galaxy S25 cases with magnetic profiles for wireless charging.

The Samsung Galaxy S25 series is marketed as 'Qi2 ready,' but this requires a specific magnetic case. The phones themselves lack built-in magnets for magnetic alignment with Qi2 chargers. Only one official Samsung case currently enables true Qi2 functionality (magnetic alignment and fast wireless charging),

Two years after it was announced, Samsung is adopting the latest Qi2 standard in the Galaxy S25 series, but it’s not in the way you probably hoped, and you’re going to run into an immediate problem with existing accessories.
