As The Verge reported final week, Realme is engaged on a magnetic wi-fi charging system for its Android telephones, and in the present day it’s revealed a full vary of merchandise that’ll use the brand new know-how. Realme is looking the system MagDart, and it’s principally a high-powered tackle Apple’s MagSafe system for the iPhone 12 vary of telephones.

The key product within the lineup is the 50W MagDart charger, which Realme says is the world’s quickest magnetic wi-fi charger. It has an inescapably cumbersome cuboid design that makes room for a cooling fan, however Realme is banking that customers will make the tradeoff for quicker charging speeds.

When plugged into the corporate’s 65W SuperDart wired charger, Realme claims that the MagDart charger will fill a 4,500mAh cellphone battery as much as one hundred pc in 54 minutes. That’s nearly as quick as what you get from Realme’s 50W wired charger.

If you don’t wish to need to plug a charging brick right into a charging brick, Realme can also be engaged on a considerably sleeker and extra handy 15W MagDart charger, which principally seems like Apple’s MagSafe puck — although Realme factors out it’s 26.4 % thinner and claims quicker charging speeds. It’ll fill a 4,500mAh battery in 90 minutes, in keeping with Realme, which might certainly be much faster than Apple’s personal 15W possibility.

Wireless charging comfort apart, a serious benefit of a magnetic design like MagDart and MagSafe is the potential for slick portless equipment, and Realme has a bunch of these as effectively.

• The MagDart Case is a carbon fiber-style case for the brand new Realme GT flagship cellphone with a passthrough USB-C port and headphone jack in addition to built-in MagDart connectivity.

• The MagDart Wallet is, you guessed it, a three-card sleeve much like Apple’s MagSafe pockets. But this one has a kickstand.

• Perhaps better of all is the MagDart Beauty Light, a flip-up ring gentle for selfies that’s powered by reverse wi-fi charging. It has 60 mini LEDs and a devoted management button that allows you to modify settings like brightness and colour temperature.

Realme hasn’t stated something a couple of launch date or pricing for any of those merchandise, and the only real current cellphone confirmed to work with any MagDart machine is the Realme GT — and that’s provided that you purchase the devoted case. Realme is demonstrating the ecosystem with a “concept phone” known as the Realme Flash, which is pictured within the above pictures and does have MagDart instantly inbuilt, however there aren’t any plans to really launch it but.

That’s a fairly large catch for what’s ostensibly a launch for a serious new ecosystem of merchandise. But if Realme does combine MagDart into its future telephones, it may very well be a strong differentiator. Wireless charging is persistently one of many key omissions from Chinese telephones that in any other case have spectacular spec sheets — Oppo solely lately adopted the tech, and Vivo is but to get on board. And since Oppo’s VOOC fast-charging system made its strategy to OnePlus and Realme telephones because of the corporations’ shared possession and provide chain, it’s believable that the identical might occur with MagDart.
