Key takeaways:
- Infinix introduces MagCharge, a magnetic wireless charging system for its new Note 40 Pro+ 5G smartphone
- MagCharge supports 20W wireless charging speeds, faster than Apple’s 15W MagSafe
- Infinix aims to expand its magnetic charging accessory ecosystem to more devices in the future
Smartphone brand Infinix has launched its latest flagship, the Note 40 Pro+ 5G, which introduces a new magnetic wireless charging technology called MagCharge. Similar to Apple’s MagSafe system, MagCharge allows the phone to magnetically attach to wireless charging pads and other accessories.
However, Infinix has one-upped Apple by supporting 20W wireless charging speeds with MagCharge, which is faster than the 15W provided by MagSafe. This allows the 4,600 mAh battery in the Note 40 Pro+ 5G to charge more rapidly without wires.
Infinix has developed a suite of MagCharge accessories to launch alongside the phone. These include the MagPad wireless charging pad, MagCase phone case with magnetic attachment, and MagPower magnetic portable battery pack. The magnetic connection ensures perfect alignment for optimal charging efficiency.
The company says it plans to create a broader magnetic charging ecosystem and bring MagCharge capabilities to more Infinix devices in the future. “We want to lead the subject of charging in the industry,” said Vento Lin, Product Director of Infinix’s Note Series.
In addition to 20W MagCharge, the Note 40 Pro+ 5G also supports 100W wired fast charging, allowing it to reach a 50% charge in just 8 minutes. Other key features include a MediaTek Dimensity 7020 chipset, 6.78-inch 120Hz AMOLED display, and 108MP main camera with OIS.
With the Note 40 Pro+ 5G and MagCharge, Infinix is taking aim at competitors like Apple and Xiaomi by focusing on innovative charging technologies. The phone is launching at a highly competitive $310 starting price, as Infinix looks to make a splash in markets across Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa.
