Pressure from mobile phone users has resulted in a rapid increase in the power consumption of charging systems in recent years. However, the chargers offered by the manufacturer directly with the phones still did not get close to the hundred watt mark. For example, OnePlus offers one of the most powerful chargers with its 7T. It reaches a maximum power of 65 watts. Despite the fact that our devices connected directly to the network with a cable still do not reliably reach the rounded target, according to new leaks, we could see 100-watt wireless charging as early as next year.
The information came from a leaker with the nickname Digital Chat Station, who often reveals behind-the-scenes informace from the factories of leading smartphone manufacturers. This time, Digital Chat Station claims to have peeked at the plans in the research facilities of major companies and can confirm that next year will be marked by seriously breaking the 100 watt mark for wireless charging. A number of unspecified manufacturers set themselves the goal.
Given that such powerful charging generates a large amount of residual heat, the question is how manufacturers actually want to get around this unpleasant feature. Another common problem with fast charging is the relatively rapid degradation of the battery. At 100 watts, it won't be enough to fit phones with today's type of batteries, manufacturers will have to properly adjust the energy storage and make sure they can last long enough to make it worthwhile for customers to prioritize fast charging over battery life.
