Wireless charging on 640? (not XL)

[tribexx]

I am looking at the 640 on T-Mo and I did a search of 640 vs 735 and found this:

Microsoft Lumia 640 vs Nokia Lumia 735 - Phone specs comparison

It lists wireless charging as optional for the 640. I know there is an option, I think for the ATT 640XL, but I am wondering about
if there is a case or something for the 640 that gives this option?

​thanks

Currently it is not an option for either phone - probably just a goof.

There's talk of hacking it in unofficially on the XL, but haven't heard much on the 640.

I bought a Qi wireless charging receiver (type a) and hacked it inside of my battery cover for my 640. Works great.

I was talking about actual hacking with solder and wiring instead of the cheap and easy way of using up the microUSB port. But eh, it works. I might try that myself..
