Wow, this kinda came out of nowhere now didn't it? I hope it is using the same Qi standard as the Lumias.
So there are going to be two models.. one with wireless and one without?
Actually, it doesn't sound like Verizon will offer 2 models...it sounds like wireless charging capabilities will simply be built into the Verizon 8X's.
My concerns are, 1.) will this add significant weight to the device? 2.) will this affect the battery size/performance?
Can anybody answer these questions?
The article states that there will be no increased thickness to the device -I personally wouldn't think the wireless charging module/chip would be substantial enough to change the weight of the device or cause them to shrink down the battery. but I'm no expert so I can't say for sure :\
