635 Qi Shell

[Senordingdong2K]

The other half needs a new phone so I've decided to get her one for Xmas.
I've narrowed it down to the 635 and 735 but I want qi.

Does anyone know if qi shells are available for the 635, either now or in the not too distant future?

I would spring for the 735 as it has 1GB of ram and flash for the rear camera. As for Qi charging, the 635 doesn't have it.

no, the 635 doesn't have a qi coil. I've gone to the extent of trying to get a microusb Qi coil from amazon to try and retrofit it, but I didn't have luck with it. it would start, but it wouldn't do much more then last for about 1 second and then stop.

If anyone else has had any luck with this, let me know...

If I was choosing between the 635 and the 735, I'd go with the 735, since it also has a much better camera.

Yeah I noticed that it doesn't have a coil. I had hoped they would sell a shell with a coil in it. Like the 735 and the 820.

Maybe I'll just go with the 735
