Realme has unveiled its MagDart charging technology, the magnetic charging technology is a first for Android, the new magnetic wireless chargers are faster and thinner than the ones Apple provides.
At the online event, Realme announced multiple products such as the Realme Flash, 50W MagDart Charger, 15W MagDart Charger, MagDart Power Bank, MagDart Wallet, MagDart Beauty Light, and the MagDart Case for Realme GT.
Realme Flash
The Realme Flash is a concept Android device that will showcase the MagDart wireless charging technology and the first Android smartphone with support for magnetic wireless charging.
The device has a dual-curved display with a punch-hole camera at the top-left corner. It has a triple-camera setup on the rear and a 4,500mAh battery with a Snapdragon 888 chipset. It has an AG matte finish back panel.
The device packs Boron and Cobalt Magnets that are 0.3mm slim, it boasts a magnetism decay of 0.01% after two years, and a 5N magnetic force that permits it to hold objects that weigh up to 500g. Realme has not yet said if it plans to make the device commercially available.
50W MagDart Charger
The 50W MagDart charger is the world’s fastest magnetic wireless charger, it features a 0.2mm thin extra-large low impedance copper coil which allows it to generate less heat while charging. Regardless, it still has a mini active air cooling fan built into the charger. The charger also has a 1.5mm thick magnet.
The charger can refill the Realme Flash from 0 to 20% in just 5 minutes and a full charge will take 54 minutes, almost the same duration as the wired 50W SuperDart Charger.
Realme claims that the 50W MagDart Charger is also the best solution while gaming as the charger can be rotated so that the wire would not be an obstruction while gaming, the charger can also be used to charge devices that support Qi wireless charging.
15W MagDart Charger
The 15W MagDart Charger is for those who are interested in having a charger with a smaller form factor. It measures thinner than Apple’s MagSafe and the best part is it does so while providing an improved speed as well.
It measures 3.9mm in thickness and would be thinner than four credit cards stacked together and will be 26.4% thinner than the MagSafe charger.
Realme claims that it was able to make the charger this thin by using a separate coil and board design, rather than putting the board in the charging coil, Realme linked it to the charging plug. This design choice reduces overheating.
The Apple MagSafe charger will take hours to refill a battery capacity of less than 3,000mAh, the 15W MagDart Charger will recharge a 4,500mAh battery in under 90 minutes.
MagDart Power Bank
