Yesterday, Chinese manufacturer, OnePlus, finally released the OnePlus 8 series in an online event. The OnePlus 8 Pro supports wireless charging and OnePlus also introduced a wireless charging base. The OnePlus Warp Charge 30 wireless charging base can output up to 30W of charging power wirelessly.
The Warp Charge 30 wireless charging base can also be used as a stand. In addition, it comes with a fan on the rear to prevent overheating. It can charge the battery of OnePlus 8 Pro without a large increase in surface temperature. This also helps to preserve the overall battery life. According to the company, the sound of the fan is negligible. In fact, you only hear the sound when you place the charging dock in your ear. The company claims that the OnePlus Warp Charge 30 wireless charging base can charge 50% of OnePlus 8 Pro batteries in 30 minutes and 100% in 80 minutes. However, according to ITHome, the actual speed of the charger is faster. It delivers 58% in 30 minutes.
It is worth mentioning that the cables of the Warp Charge 30 wireless charging base are not removable. However, users can replace the power plug if there is a need to do so. OnePlus Warp Charge 30 wireless charging dock comes with a $69.95 price tag.
