The ASUS Zenfone 6 is an affordable flagship phone that launched this year. Most times the device gets talked about, its rear cameras are usually the focus. The Zenfone 6 or ASUS 6z as it is called in India, actually has other interesting features. One of them is its massive 5000mAh battery which is 600mAh short of being double the Pixel 4’s measly 2800mAh battery capacity.
Since it packs a big battery, ASUS added support for reverse charging, allowing you to use it as a power bank to charge other devices. Sadly, there is no support for wireless charging. But that may change with its predecessor which should arrive as the Zenfone 7.
The wireless power consortium has certified an ASUS Wireless Charger with the model number W1G-AWPM. The charger was registered on October 4 but there are two other listings for September 23 and September 26 too. The differences between the three listings are the colors of the chargers and their Qi registration IDs. The listings for all three say the ASUS Wireless Charger has a potential power level of 15 Watts.
The charger has a circular design but it is hard to tell the material used for the top. The bottom does look like plastic though. The three colors are white, sky blue, and pink.
Alongside the Zenfone 7, ASUS may also decide to add wireless charging support to the ROG Phone II‘ successor. We just hope both phones get to keep their large battery capacities.
The Zenfone 6 was announced in May and made available the same month. However, its predecessor was announced in February of 2018 but didn’t go on sale until May. ASUS may decide to announce the Zenfone 7 earlier next year.
