We're still waiting for Qi2 to take off on Android, and the Pixel 10 seemed to signal that it could happen relatively soon. That said, we haven't seen other major Android phones integrate built-in Qi2 magnets aside from the Pixel 10 series. That's why it feels like there's a lot riding on Samsung to take the hint and bring it to the Galaxy S26. However, whether that's actually the case is a bit up in the air right now, and it's really not looking good.
The latest rumors suggest that the Galaxy S26 series won't actually feature built-in Qi2 magnets and instead rely on external cases to get the job done. But will this actually matter to you when you buy the phones? Let us know if the lack of Qi2 would be a dealbreaker, or if you can look past it if the phone itself is good enough.
