CHARGE YOUR PHONE WITHOUT CORDS
But have you ever wondered how this futuristic technology works? It's a fascinating stuff! Allow me to explain the inner workings of this wireless technology to you.
Wireless charging, also known as inductive charging, operates on the principle of electromagnetic induction. It involves transferring energy from a power source to a device without physical connectors. The process relies on two main components - a transmitter [charging pad) and a receiver (built-in within the phone or attached as a separate accessory].
The transmitter converts electrical power from a wall outlet into an alternating current [AC]. This alternating current creates a fluctuating magnetic field around the transmitter coil. When a compatible device with a receiver coil is placed close to the transmitter, the fluctuating magnetic field induces an alternating current in the receiver coil through electromagnetic induction.
Once the receiver coil within the phone detects the alternating current, it converts this electrical energy back into direct current [DC], which is then used to charge the device's battery. Wireless charging efficiency largely depends on factors such as the distance between the transmitter and receiver coils, alignment, and the materials between them.
To ensure compatibility across various brands and models of smartphones and charging accessories, the brand preferred the Qi standard as the industry standard for wireless charging technology instead of creating proprietary charging modules.
One of the key advantages of wireless charging is its convenience. Users can simply place their devices on a charging pad without fumbling with cables or connectors. This convenience extends beyond smartphones and encompasses other electronic devices such as smartwatches, earbuds, and even electric toothbrushes.

BANG FOR YOUR BUCK
OnePlus has consistently been a reliable brand for wireless earphones, particularly in the sub-₹10,000 segment, and their latest launch, the OnePlus Nord Buds 3, stands out as a compelling option for those seeking quality audio without straining their budget.
A BUDGET-FRIENDLY PERFORMER WITH A FEW FLAWS
Redmi Buds 5C stands out as an affordable TWS option with active noise cancellation (ANC), a lightweight build, and long battery life. But is it perfect?
IS THE AFFORDABLE CONVERTIBLE WORTH YOUR MONEY
The laptop space is always pretty saturated, and that makes it difficult for devices to stand out. But the Aspire 3 Spin 14 has announced itself quite convincingly as a slim convertible within the reach of students and amateur users.
