Here are all the Android phones that support Qi2

The Qi2 wireless charging spec was originally announced back in early 2023. However, Android phone makers haven’t exactly been rushing to add Qi2 support to their latest devices since then. That’s made finding a compatible handset rather difficult, which is a bummer for anyone who has seen the wealth of accessories and power banks that iPhone owners have had for several generations.

On top of faster charging speeds (up to 15 watts or higher in later revisions), Qi2 dictates the inclusion of embedded magnets designed to make aligning and attaching peripherals a cinch.

But what makes the slow rollout a bit more frustrating is that Apple is a member of the Wireless Power Consortium (the governing body in charge of Qi2) and its MagSafe tech was used to help define the spec and ensure that compliant add-ons work seamlessly with Qi2, so it’s not like there’s a lack of compatible peripherals.

Regardless, to help you figure out which Android phones officially come with Qi2, we’ve compiled a list of supported devices. (Note: Due to the complexities of the Chinese market, this list is primarily focused on gadgets available in North America and the EU.)

Android phones with Qi2:

The HMD Skyline.

That’s it, seriously. At least for now.

However, things are looking up for 2025, as Samsung has already committed to making multiple “Android devices supporting Qi2” this year. And with its upcoming Unpacked event slated for next week, things could change very soon.

Google has also seemingly pledged to throw its hat to the ring. That said, things are a bit less concrete with the company saying that it will play “a leading role in the development of the upcoming Qi v2.2 standard, which includes Google's contribution of its own high-power wireless charging technology to WPC."

Looking further ahead, with Mobile World Congress 2025 starting on March 3, we’re expecting to see updates from even more major manufacturers.

As new phones with Qi2 hit the market, we will try to keep this list as up-to-date as possible. Or at least until the spec becomes a much more mainstream standard.
