Qi wireless charging standard finalized, XDA says maybe you don’t have to wait
The Wireless Power Consortium, consisting of heavyweights such as Duracell, Nokia and Phillips have finalized their Qi wireless charging standard for interoperability, meaning soon you will be able to charge any Qi-certified battery on any Qi-certified charger, bringing the wireless dream that much closer.
