Exclusive: Realme Flash is the first Android phone with magnetic wireless charging
As hinted by a tweet from earlier today, Realme is gearing up to release a new phone and we just so happened to get a few more details in our mailbox. It's called Realme Flash and it will debut the brandâs MagDart wireless magnetic charger - a first in the Android realm.
Similar to Appleâs MagSafe tech, Realme MagDart will clip onto the back of the device and pump out an undisclosed amount of power. Realmeâs solution is physically larger than what weâve seen from Apple and does include a fan to help keep thermals in check. We got confirmation that charging speeds will exceed 15W and that Realme's solution will be the fastest magnetic charger in the world once it launches.
The charger also packs a USB-C connector. Weâve previously seen a smaller puck-shaped magnetic charger which has a built-in cable and is believed to offer 15W charging speeds.
Realme Flash sports a curved screen with a punch hole cutout in the top left corner. The back features a triple camera setup while the internals include a Snapdragon 888 with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage. The software side is covered by Android 11 with Realme UI 2.0 on top. Expect more details on Realme Flash and MagDart soon.
