The Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge have built-in wireless charging, so why not a monitor? That may well have been Samsung’s thinking when it comes to its newly announced SE370 Full-HD monitors. And you have to admit, it makes sense, many of us have our smartphones nearby when we sit at the computer. Wireless charging built-in to the base of the monitor would be more than handy, allowing us to keep our compatible handsets topped up as well as keeping the clutter of extra cables to a minimum.

The SE370 monitors are available in 23.6-inch (S24SE370DL) and 27-inch sizes (S27SE370DS), both offering wireless charging using the Qi standard. Just place your Qi compatible phone on the circular charging area on the base and an LED will light up to notify you that wireless charging has begun.

Besides built-in wireless charging, both monitors use a PLS (Plane-to-Line-Switching) panel with AMD’s FreeSync technology that synchronizes the display’s refresh rate with the frame rate the AMD graphics card that is pushing the pixels from the PC.

Other specifications include:

  • Full HD resolution (1920 x 1080) 300 cd/m2
  • 4ms Response time
  • Contrast: 1000:1
  • 178° Viewing angle
  • 1 x HDMI (1.4), 1 x DisplayPort, 1 x D-Sub
  • Features: Wireless charging, Eco Saving Plus, Magic Brightness, Magic Upscale, Game Mode, Eye Saver Mode, Flicker Free, FreeSync, Image Size

Details of pricing and availability haven’t been made available as yet, although its quite possible that more will be unveiled at the IFA in Berlin from September 4-9. Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
