Thus, the machine will charge without having to plug in the cable as traditional.

Although the 5 watt is quite enough to charge the phone, but the upgrade to 150 watts can see in the future Nokia and the carrier will have the tablet also like wireless charger on.
Another advantage of the Qi wireless charging is that it is more firm support and also offers a wide range of products built to this standard. Consortium said the organization currently has 110 certified products Qi standard, including smartphones, charging tray, handle gaming, Blu-ray player, integrated speakers charging (like JBL PowerUp), charging car, clock, battery backup ...
