Samsung shows off Galaxy S6’s wireless charging feature in new ad

In yet another Galaxy S6 ad, Samsung is demonstrating the device’s wireless charging abilities, showing consumers how much more efficient and easier the technology is over the standard charging cable.

In the thirty-second clip, Samsung points out just how frustrating cable management can be. But while wireless charging is a nice luxury to have, you still have to mess with cables. After all, where is the wireless charging pad going to gets its power?

When the wireless charging pad is set up, it’s certainly an efficient and hassle-free technology to use. And if Samsung really wanted to push this technology, they’d probably include a charging pad in the box, whereas for the time being, they don’t. In all honesty, the ad pokes more fun at Apple than really trying to sell you on wireless charging.

But, in case you didn’t know, Samsung’s Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge both support PMA and Qi wireless charging, making the two devices capable with a variety of third-party wireless charging solutions.

What do you think of wireless charging? Is it a technology you use or do you find it to be just as much hassle as cable management?
