The OnePlus 7 is coming soon and the company CEO Pete Lau has confirmed some new information about the flagship smartphone. At the Mobile World Congress 2019 event, Lau confirmed that OnePlus 7 would not come with wireless charging support like rumours so far have suggested. In fact, Lau thinks that wireless charging is still “nascent technology” and that’s the reason why that the upcoming OnePlus flagship aka OnePlus 7 will not support this feature. OnePlus CEO says that the proprietary charging technology which is called the Warp Charge is ‘one of the best’ technologies available in the industry to charge a smartphone. Lau also said that until wireless charging technology can charge smartphones quickly and without heating up OnePlus will not bring the technology to its phones. This probably means that at least the OnePlus 7 series which includes OnePlus 7 and OnePlus 7T will not come packed with wireless charging support.

No Wireless Charging Support for OnePlus 7
Lau confirmed the new information about the wireless charging of the OnePlus 7 to CNET during the on-going Mobile World Congress 2019 event. He noted, “OnePlus charging is one of the best. Wireless charging is far inferior.” Possibly on account of that Qualcomm has introduced Quick Charge for wireless power in order to allow fast charging on charging pads at MWC 2019 tech show.
OnePlus phones are very popular for its Dash charging technology, which is one of the fastest charging tech available in the industry right now. In the same interview, Lau said that the company is working on wireless charging keeping in mind that it can perform better without heating up. He, however, didn’t reveal any further details when will get to see the first OnePlus phone with wireless charging support.
