And the list keeps growing..

At ZENS we’re delighted with the confirmation that Samsung is implementing the Qi standard in these stylish devices. Last week, specifications and official images were put out in the open by Evan Blass, senior editor at Mashable.

Wireless charging – the key benefits

  • Never run out of battery again
  • Charge your smartphone wherever Qi Wireless Charging has been implemented. Whether at home, at work, a restaurant or your local coffee shop
  • For these smartphones Qi wireless charging will just be as self-evident as Wi-Fi
  • All our chargers support Samsung Fast Charge.

It seems Samsung changed strategy by turning the Galaxy Note 5 (left) into the more exclusive, niche smartphone of the two. The S6 Edge Plus in turn, is a 5.7 inch XL version of the existing S6 Edge, meant to take a leading role in the phablet market.

Specifications

Here’s what’s expected

  • Non removable battery
  • Capacity: estimations vary from 3000 to 4100 mAh
  • Memory: 16, 32, and 64 GB internal memory and expandable to 128 GB
