OvRCharge Levitates Your Phone While It Charges

Posted on by

levitating-wireless-smartphone-charger

This thing is completely unnecessary, but damn if it ain’t cool. Sort of. It’s a charging base for your smartphone that simply levitates the phone while it charges it wirelessly. It uses a special case that contains a magnet and induction charging hardware. The case plugs into your phone’s charging port, and the magnet is strong enough to support the weight of the phone above the base, which itself is plugged into the grid. The phone will slowly rotate while it charges, and when you want to leave you just have to pluck it out of thin air and go. It’s useless in the sense that you’ll have to pay for something that doesn’t give you any added functionality, but if you want to impress your friends or loudly tell your visitors that you’re an early adopter that’s into tech, the OvRCharge is the way to go. How much will you pay? Right now, it’ll take an $180 pledge to reserve yours, and hope to get it by December 2016. It’s compatible with a bunch of phone models, so hit the link to find out which.

Gecko Gives Any Smartphone Wireless-“Style” Charging Capabilities

Posted on by

Gecko-Magnetic-Wireless-Charging-System-image-1-630x420

Notice the word “style” in that headline. That’s because Gecko isn’t true wireless charging… but it’s pretty darn close. The system consists of three parts: a dongle that goes into your smartphone’s charging port, a dongle that goes into a USB port, and an adapter that goes over the business end of your existing charging cable. Once set up, the strong magnets on the surface of each connecting dongle align themselves so that you can casually set your phone down and it’ll start charging. Yes, there’s still a physical connection, so it’s not really wireless, but it’s close in the sense that you don’t have to take the extra step to manually plug a cable in. You’ll laugh and say “how lazy are we that we can’t even plug a cable in?”, but then you’d be missing the fact that tons of people love the convenience that wireless charging has brought them. It’s cool to simply toss your phone down on a surface as you walk in from work and have it start charging without needing to pause even for one second. At least, that’s what the folks behind Gecko hope you’ll believe. It works with iOS and Android mobile devices, and the best part is how cheap it is: a $9 pledge on IndieGogo.
