Belkin claims its new BOOSTCHARGE wireless charger can serve 2 compatible devices without last-gen placement issues
Belkin claims to have produced the first ever product with a "Qi-certified multi-coil" design in the BOOSTCHARGE TrueFreedom PRO Wireless Charger. This means the mat is rated to accurately deliver charge to up to 2 compatible smartphones regardless of where they are placed on it.
In other words, its maker - which is now a Foxconn Interconnect Technology (FIT) subsidiary - ostensibly aims for the USP of the once keenly-awaited Apple AirPower with this new product.
This new BOOSTCHARGE variant is also directed at the high end of the wireless charging market, with a chrome border around a faux leather surface. Then again, it has a very standard speed of 10 watts (W), meaning that it could also support most Qi-enabled TWS earbud cases or other accessories.
Accordingly, this new TrueFreedom PRO Wireless Charger has also just missed out on full compatibility with the new iPhone 12 series. Then again, it could also match well with the 11 to 8 lines, as well as with many Android smartphones. The new BOOSTCHARGE mat is set at US$130 with certain retailers, with availability on belkin.com to follow shortly.
