What is Wireless Charging?

The most generic form of wireless charging uses electromagnetic induction to transfer energy from a charging pad to your device—no cables needed.

The Advantages of the Latest Wireless Chargers

It's morning, and you're rushing out the door. You grab your phone, earbuds, and smartwatch from the wireless charging mat—effortless, no cables. Just ready to go.

Later, at your favorite coffee shop, your phone's battery dips low. But there's a charging pad built into the table. You set your phone down, and it powers up while you take a sip of coffee. No searching for an outlet—just power where you need it.

This is what wireless charging is all about: keeping you charged, without friction.

No Cords!

By reducing the need for cables, wireless chargers make your space neater and better-organised. Plus, fewer cables mean less wear and tear on your devices—no more worrying about broken charging ports. It’s simple, and just easier.

Efficient Magnetic Charging

We’ve all been there—placing your phone on a wireless charger, only to find it didn’t charge because it wasn’t aligned properly. New chargers, like those with Qi2 tech, solve this problem with improved magnetic alignment. Just place your phone down, and it’s perfectly positioned for an efficient charge every time.

Faster Wireless Charging

Today’s chargers can power your device at speeds up to 15W—three times the speed of older generations. For you, that means less time waiting for your devices to charge, and more time using them. Just 30 minutes on the latest wireless chargers can be enough time to ready your devices for your next coffee run, meeting, or even flight.

Many portable power banks now feature wireless charging capabilities, offering a modern and convenient way to keep your devices powered on the go.

Wireless Power, Everywhere

Wireless charging is no longer limited to dedicated chargers.

Everyday items like desk mats and even JOURNEY’s laptop sleeves now come equipped with wireless charging capabilities. That means you can charge your devices simply by placing them on items you already use, whether at work, on the go, or while traveling.

No more extra chargers or tangled cords—just a clutter-free, seamless experience with your essential accessories.

Stylish Chargers That Blend In

Forget the clunky wireless chargers of the past. Some of the best wireless chargers today are decorative and even monolithic objects.

People who use devices such as phones, earbuds, and smartwatches today can wirelessly fast charge them with charging stations that feature distinctive hollow and vertical builds, stunning geometric patterns and color palettes, hidden charging components, and beautiful soft-touch surfaces for tactile enjoyment.

They don’t just keep your devices powered — they blend into your decor and keep your space looking good.

What We Already Love About Wireless Chargers

Single Chargers for Multiple Devices

Juggling multiple chargers for your phone, earbuds, and smartwatch is a hassle. With multi-device wireless charging, you can power up all your devices in one go. It’s perfect for keeping your nightstand or desk organised, and you’ll never wake up to find one of your devices left uncharged.

Did You Know?

Wireless charging isn’t just for your phone anymore. It’s already being built into desks, tables, and even cars, so all you have to do is place your device down, and it charges—no cables, no hassle.

And looking ahead? Imagine coffee shops, restaurants, or even airports with built-in charging zones. The future could even bring charging that works without touching anything at all—just by being in the same room.
