Joining the likes of Realme, Chinese smartphone brand Oppo has unveiled its MagSafe-like magnetic wireless charging technology today. The company demoed its new wireless charging technology and compatible accessories at the Smart China Expo 2021 event. So, let’s take a look at what Oppo will offer with its new magnetic charging technology for Android devices.
Dubbed as the MagVOOC charging technology, Oppo’s latest wireless charging tech leverages specialized magnets at the back of smartphones for charging. It is similar to Apple’s MagSafe charging technology, which the Cupertino giant re-introduced with the launch of its iPhone 12 series last year.
Apart from showcasing its MagVOOC magnetic charging tech, Oppo also unveiled new charging accessories as part of the MagVOOC series. This includes a MagVOOC wireless power bank, a MagVOOC ultra-thin flash charger, and a MagVOOC wireless flash charging stand.
For a truly wireless experience, Oppo’s MagVOOC series includes a portable wireless power bank. This is similar to Apple’s $99 MagSafe Battery Pack and attaches to the back of smartphones using the MagVOOC magnets.
Now, it is worth mentioning that Oppo has not revealed how fast can the MagVOOC series will juice up Android smartphones. Moreover, the company did not mention any launch timeline for the accessories or a MagVOOC-enabled smartphone.
