Following the popularity of Apple’s MagSafe, Realme announced MagDart, its own take on magnetic wireless charging technology. Now, OPPO seems to be next to jump on the train according to a trademark application filing.
The MagVOOC trademark application was spotted by Twitter user Paras Guglani (via MySmartPrice). The listing doesn’t reveal much save for the date of application which is August 11, 2021, and the applicant which is OPPO Guangdong Mobile Communications Co. Ltd.

From the trademark name which is a portmanteau of magnetic and VOOC, OPPO’s charging technology, we can safely presume that this is OPPO’s own magnetic wireless charging technology.
We don’t know if OPPO plans to launch any phone that supports magnetic wireless charging anytime soon. Wireless charging is not a popular feature among OPPO devices. The Find X3 and Find X3 Pro are the only OPPO phones announced this year that have support for wireless charging. So if we are going to see magnetic wireless charging on an OPPO phone, it will most likely be next year’s Find X phones.
