WMG to integrate wireless charging technology into new phones

Wireless Mobile Group (WMG) is set to integrate Slashpower technology into their new batch of smartphones. This technology will enable you to charge your phone (and not just phones) by just placing it on a pad; it works by magnetic induction. Currently, you can add modules to a regular phone so that it can be charged wirelessly, but it won’t be necessary by integrating Slashpower directly into the batteries of the phone. Hopefully other manufacturers will hop on the bandwagon and embrace this neat technology, that will get rid of half a dozen cables on my nightstand.
