The latest certification from the Wireless Power Consortium has revealed that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 now officially supports Qi 2.1. While the certification initially suggests support for only the Basic Power Profile at 5W, it is expected that the device will actually support the Extended Power Profile at a higher wattage, building on the success of its predecessor, the Galaxy Z Fold6.
Qi 2.1 introduced new profiles related to cases, including Magnetic Cover Power Enhancement (MCPE) and Magnetic Cover Power Magnet (MCPM). These profiles are designed to enhance the magnetic field for a stronger attachment, catering to phones with and without built-in magnets. Despite some confusion surrounding the device's model number, it is clear that Samsung is making strides in wireless charging technology with the Galaxy Z Fold7.
While the certification page may be incomplete, it is likely that Samsung will continue to offer Magnet Cases for the Galaxy Z Fold7, utilizing the MCPE profile for improved charging capabilities. Stay tuned for more updates on the latest advancements in wireless charging technology.
