Swedish furniture maker Ikea unveiled a new range of furniture that it says can wirelessly charge some mobile devices. The Swedish furniture giant made the announcement on Sunday at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
The collection includes lamps, bedside tables, and desks, each of which has a charging pad developed in collaboration with specialist technology company Qi. Devices with embedded Qi technology, such as new models by Google Nexus, HTC, Samsung and Nokia, will already be compatible with the furniture products, huhmagazine.co.uk reports.
The IKEA wireless charging furniture will be available at the IKEA website from mid-April, 2015.
