Here's what the retail box reveals about Samsung's new wireless-charger
The image of a retail box appeared on Twitter. The right side of the box reveals that the Samsung Charger Duo will offer fast charging and can juice up two phones simultaneously. Further, you can also charge a phone and the upcoming Galaxy Watch. Also, given the charging pad is compatible with Qi-certified products, it should support older Galaxy smartphones as well.
Information
Apple's AirPower mat can charge three devices at once
Announced last September, alongside the latest iPhones, AirPower wireless charging mat can charge a compatible iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods all at the same time. However, AirPower is not expected to release anytime before September as Apple struggles to overcome an issue related to overheating.
Launch
Save the date: August 9
All Samsung fans and tech enthusiasts are looking forward to August 9 when the company is expected to unveil its latest phablet smartphone - the Samsung Galaxy Note 9. Moreover, Samsung could possibly launch its latest wearable, the Galaxy Watch, and this new multi-device wireless charger alongside Note 9.
