Frequently asked questions
- What is Qi and MagSafe wireless charging? Collapsed link
Qi (pronounced chee) is one of the most popular standards for wireless charging. Wireless charging technology lets you charge your device over very short distances, without the need for cables or wires. No need to worry about plugging and unplugging each time, or untangling your messy wires, just pop your device on the charging pad or charging stand and away you go.
Qi is supported by most major brands including Apple, Huawei, LG, Samsung and Sony, so the majority of the latest phones and tablets will support wireless charging. Check your device tech spec to see if you can take advantage of wireless charging, then take a look at our range of wireless chargers.
MagSafe charging was developed by Apple, and is another way of wirelessly charging your device. The smart technology behind MagSafe allows for fully optimised charging, and provides a faster wireless charging up to 15W. You can shop the MagSafe Wireless Charger right here at O2.

Wireless over-ear headphones -Here you have your classic over-ear headphones, just without the wire. They look the same as the wired ones and give you the same benefits too, just without the fuss of wires.
