Qi wireless charging has been around longer than you might think. Google added wireless charging to the Nexus 4 and the Nexus 7 (2013) the following year. While it disappeared for a few Nexus and Pixel generations, Qi charging has become a smartphone staple. Even iPhones have used Qi charging since the iPhone 8 and X. Due to its widespread popularity, a vast array of wireless chargers are available. In my opinion, the best one comes from Samsung, and it's the Wireless Charger Duo.
