Wireless charging for your Galaxy devices
Wireless charging lets you charge your Galaxy device by placing it on a compatible charger without using cables.
You can charge phones, earbuds, and smartwatches easily as long as the device supports wireless charging.
Note: Available screens and settings may vary by wireless service provider, software version, and phone model.
With no wires to get in your way, charging becomes a cinch with a wireless charger.
Step 1. Plug the wireless charger into a power outlet and connect the cable.
Step 2. Place your device on the wireless charger.
Step 3. Make sure the back of the device is centered on the charging pad.
