Realme launches MagDart, a MagSafe-style wireless charger for its Android phones
Realme MagDart charging puck.

Apple is no longer the only company making a circular magnetic charging disc for use with its phones. Realme has launched MagDart, a wireless charging system which it says is the first magnetic wireless charger for Android phones. Just like Apple's system is only for iPhones, MagDart is only for Realme's own phones, rather than any Android device. It hasn’t stopped at the charging disc either, but has also announced a MagDart power bank, a case, a wallet, and even a selfie light that uses the system.

At the heart of MagDart is Realme’s SuperDart 50W wall charger and a 15W, 3.9mm thick wireless charging disc. By separating the two sections, Realme says it keeps the temperatures under control, which is further assisted by an active cooling system. This allows a faster charging speed, with a 4500mAh battery expected to go from zero to 100% in less than an hour. Wireless charging is usually considerably slower than its wired alternative, but MagDart seems to minimize the difference.

tcl multi screen collaboration software news pc

TCL Communications has announced a multiscreen software platform, called Multi-Screen Collaboration, for the TCL 20 Pro 5G smartphone, which will arrive as an update for the recently announced device in the near future. It opens up the ability for the phone to integrate with a compatible television, tablet, or computer. Think of the functionality as being similar to Huawei’s Huawei Share, Samsung’s DeX, and even Google’s Chromecast.

Pair the TCL 20 Pro 5G to a TCL television using DLNA or Miracast, and the system makes it easy to display the photos stored in the gallery. What makes it different from Chromecast is being able to navigate using your phone's screen and annotate images too, ready to take a screenshot and then share in a document. It’s an interesting collaborative twist on the basic functionality we may have first expected. Music and video can be streamed directly to the TV from the phone too.
