Most would assumed me just a newbie who dont understand anything when ever I leave out detail explanation on what I know. I dont like to show off knowledge. The fact that Im almost a decade veteran here. No worries. Got that all the time. See like this comment itself. Got tired of it. I just assumed everyone to understand the rest of the thing without I having to explain every single thing. I dont want to repeat myself but people here as always nitpicking on comments. They all be like, "Oh, you dont know this..that...also you should know..this that....this brand is like this...that....do some research...read more...dont talk about what you dont know...". Im like, bruhh...i practically live here. See...i seen it all. All the comment here is always the same. Same replies same bashing same shaming for many years. So tired of it.

    It obviously have to have wireless charging. Based on your input it appeared you didn't know hence me telling you to do some research. We can all learn from each other so I wouldn't bash you about your lack of knowledge in this particular department.

We come to an agreement for reverse wireless charging to charge multiple brand accessories. Accessories only. Not other phone. And yes it is not necessary for a phone to have power sharing but it is necessary to have wireless charging(minus reverse) to begin with to create an ecosystem of wireless charging.

                Funny Samsung device does the same.
                Grats charging one device to deplete another great idea.
                And apple with their tiny batteries???

                Energizer phones or Oukitel K10 have use for this due to 11k+ mAh batteries but no apple or Samsung its a completely useless tech which customer have to pay for.
                The onyl god it can charge galaxy buds.
                But even that means draining 20% of battery for earphones.

I'm just saying it's ok for other brand to integrate it too. Since accessories charging is a better usage for it. Huawei alone doing it is pointless. All brand would want to be able to do the same. Being able to charge other brand accessories is a wonderful thing.

Power share is meaningless if other phone brand don't support it as well. So, it is a win-win situation if all smartphone have this feature so they can wirelessly charge each other. That is the main point of 'sharing'. It's not copying.

                                      Classic Apple. Steal other companies ideas and pretend they're revolutionary thinkers...

                                        So Huawei came out with it first, Samsung followed and Apple plans on incorporating it in their next iPhone. Then the Apple Evangelists try to find a way to defend their idiotic brand as if Apple DOESN'T copy/follow others.
