It looks like Samsung is preparing to launch a new Qi2 battery pack for the upcoming Galaxy S26, which is rumored to support the upgraded charging standard. A report from Winfuture shows off leaked images of what appears to be the new accessory, outfitted with a magnetic Qi2 charging ring that delivers up to 15W of power, along with a USB-C cable offering up to 20W.

Winfuture suggests that the wireless power bank itself will have a 5,000mAh battery capable of charging at up to 25W. The battery pack also appears to come with an arm that you can fold out to use as a stand. This isn’t the first time we’re hearing about this accessory; last December, 9to5Google spotted a Samsung “Magnetic Wireless Battery Pack” in the Wireless Power Consortium’s database.
As noted by Winfuture, the power bank could cost €59.90, or around $70.
Though Samsung’s last-gen Galaxy S25 phones support “Qi2 Ready” cases, they don’t come with the built-in magnets needed for a Qi2 certification. The Galaxy S26 could change this, as well as introduce some potential updates like new camera bumps and an Ultra-only anti-snooping privacy display.
