If you love the idea of wireless charging but hate the idea of having a wireless plate or wireless charging mat taking up space on your table, Samsung might have the answer for you. The company has recently taken the wraps off the Samsung SE370 monitor which is a computer monitor that has built-in wireless charging.
The wireless charger is built into the base of the monitor itself, so you can feel free to play a compatible device and leave it there while you do your work. Its positioning also means that you can keep an eye out on your phone while working on the computer, so that you won’t miss messages or calls.
As for the monitor itself, it comes in 23.6-inch and 27-inch options. It features a PLS display panel and has a resolution of 1920×1080, so in theory the 23.6-inch display should offer up a slightly sharper viewing experience. It has a decent response time of 4ms and viewing angles of 178-degrees.
As for its ports, it will feature one HDMI 1.4 port, one DisplayPort 1.2, and a one D-Sub port. Its wireless charging will rely on the Qi wireless charging standard, so if you have a wireless charging device that relies on a different standard, like PMA, then you’d be out of luck. Unfortunately pricing and availability of the Samsung SE370 has not been confirmed by Samsung just yet.
