Samsung's new chargers are a good omen for true Qi2 on the Galaxy S26

Samsung's latest flagship phones support Qi2 wireless charging but not without a compatible magnetic case, which must be purchased separately. True Qi2 support, one where no accessories would be required, is not yet available.

Rumors have suggested that the Galaxy S26 series may support true Qi2 wireless charging, enabling users to take advantage of the standard without any accessories. Samsung has launched two new Qi2-enabled wireless chargers in the US which could be a sign of what's to come.

Of the two new chargers on offer, one's meant to be used in the car and other in your home. The puck-shaped Samsung Single Wireless Charger measures in at a compact 58mm. It supports 25W wireless fast charging when hooked up to a compatible power adapter, which needs to be purchased separately. Samsung is selling it for $34.99.

The new Car Wireless Charger has Qi2 support and comes with a 12V adapter as well as a USB-C to USB-C cable. It has a rotating mount that can swivel 360-degrees which makes it particularly handy if you're following Google Maps on your phone while driving. It's a bit pricey, though, as this charger is being sold for $84.99.

These chargers are compatible with all of the flagship phones that Samsung has launched this year, including the Galaxy S26 series and the new foldables. However, since those devices don't have integrated magnets, a separate magnetic case will be required.

The launch of these new chargers could mean that the Galaxy S26 series may finally bring the hardware needed to support Qi2 wireless charging without accessories. It would certainly make things a lot easier, not to mention cheaper, for those who want to take advantage of this wireless charging standard.
