Today, device case manufacturer Peel launched the latest addition to its line of super thin smartphone accessories. Aptly called the The Super Thin Wireless Charger, the device is both incredibly stylish and no-fuss, offering a minimalist charging solution ideal for individuals who prefer less aesthetic clutter.
The Super Thin Wireless Charger comes in white and black color options, and has a soft, scratch-free leather top. It is also, as the company says, "almost invisible" as far as thinness goes. Though Peel has yet to list the exact specifications of the device, the photos alone show that it's pretty comparable in thickness to the front cover of a hardback book — much thinner than most other wireless chargers out there. The pad also has what looks like a more rubbery material lining its underside, presumably to keep it from slipping and sliding around the surface of your desk or side table, though due to its markedly slim design its difficult to tell how its ability to stay put matches up to other wireless charging accessories on the market.
Functionally, the Super Thin Wireless Charger works with all Qi-enabled Apple and Android devices, powering them both up at their fastest wireless charging speeds (7.5W and 10W, respectively). No word yet on how successfully it charges devices through their cases, but there really should be no problem there if it's on par with its competitors even a little bit. Each charger also comes with an 6-foot-long, flat USB A cable, perfect for reaching outlets from a distance. Note however that there's no wall plug included in the purchase — you'll have to supply your own.
Essentially, if no wireless charger in the history of wireless chargers has been sleek enough for you, you may want to give Peel's contribution a try. It's priced at a pretty reasonable $49, and ships in 3-5 days from Peel's website.
