I don’t know. I’ve stopped using my wireless phone charger because it’s spotty. Sometimes it charges. Sometimes it doesn’t (or barely charges). Sometimes it wakes me up at night because it’s glitching in between charging and noncharging states and my phone feels the need to beep and wake me up.

I’ve seen similar issues with multiple watch chargers. “Oh, it didn’t charge overnight again.”

I’m not as sold on wireless charging as I once was.

It's also more energy-wasteful. Yes, it's efficient enough to be useful, but you will pay for the convenience.
