At the operational level, these three companies are not related. In terms of market share, the combined market share of these three companies is already ahead of Samsung.

    Who cares, wireless charging isn't nearly as fast as wired charging especially like the one OnePlus supports, plus you have to pay a little extra for the feature to be included and also a lot more for a wireless charging pad. Once it reaches fast charging speeds then maybe it'll be worth considering.

      Anonymous, 13 Jan 2019Oh yesYep. Also, they don't necessarily need OLED. ULED, if it can be implemented in phones, is a cheaper and longer lasting solution

Really, its such a low price item to include, should be table stakes in this day and age. I've had it more than 5 years. And, as antiquated as it may sound, I also feel that a headphone jack is a need, if you want to produce top end devices.

            As for restaurants and bars having it, I think they already do.

                For supergreedy BBK corp wireless charging will be next excuse to up the prices again. 30-40$ every half of year traditionally without something new or exceptional.

                    I guess some restaurants or bars should adapt this technology, if they provide it on their tables it would be extremely useful

                      If oneplus adopts everything from oppo then why didn't it adopt the super vooc?

HTC should have used that and an OLED screen, the 11+ and 12+ (buttons aside) could have been fully rounded with those slight modifications. They already have epic cameras and epic audio recording.

For me, and anyone else with kids, and anyone that uses USB wired headphones, the utility is fantastic. Had multiple devices get damaged because my kids picked them up at an angle whilst charging. Dash/Warp charge is great, and Id love it. But wireless is so cheap to implement, it should always be included. I like the slower charge for when I'm asleep.

                                        or like pressing a button to start your car engine rather than...turning car key.

                                        or taking to google/alexa devices rather than manually typing your search queries,

                                        or using smart devices to control your lighting at home rather than turning on/off lilghts manually. So lazy.
