    No they didn’t? Mine has no contacts, and still works with a phone case on it. So it’s somewhat wireless. Just not much range.

      I didn’t mean it literally, but functionally, it might as well be renamed “contact” charging.

      Sure it has a tiny insignificant “range” just enough to make it through some cases, but even then some cases still need additional built-in wiring to “boost” it through.

      NFC has better range FFS lmao

        Ah ok, so that entirely different technology with an entirely different purpose has a longer range. Got it.
