Phone-Charging Furniture

 

The more we use our mobile devices, the more battery life we need. Looking to alleviate the headache of constantly plugging in your phone, Ikea is introducing a range of desks, bedside tables and lamps that will come with built-in Qi wireless charging technology and will be available to buy in April. The desk lamp, especially, could be great for the office. If you've graduated past Ikea furniture, they'll also be selling some slim wood-covered charging pads to use on their own with a sharply Scandinavian, minimalistic design.

 

But will they work for your phone? Yes, if you have a Samsung Galaxy, Google Nexus 6 or one of a few other phones. The company will also offer wireless charging covers for iPhones and other incompatible devices that will let you take advantage of the new power-giving furniture. The Verge has more details.

Ikea is the world's largest furniture retailer with 351 stores in 46 countries.
