We’ve waited years for the iPhone to support wireless charging. We wanted that convenience, we said. We wanted to be just like our Android brethren, we said. And now, I’m happy to share that we can all unite over a wireless Pikachu charger. A company called Teknofun just announced the Pikachu, which it says should be compatible with Samsung devices and the iPhone 8 and X.
Go ahead and charge your iPhone X on a wireless Pikachu charger
TeknFun
It’ll be available through GameStop for $49.99 on December 16th, and is advertised as an online only product. It features three USB ports and Pikachu’s cheeks should light up when charging.
I love it. Now I need to buy a iPhone X or 8 so I can use it.
Update 12/8/17, 10:30 AM ET: Updated to include the charger’s availability date.
