OnePlus has introduced the OnePlus Magnetic Turbine, a new magnetic wireless charger aimed at providing quicker and more efficient charging. It features a sleek white design with a red center accent and supports AirVOOC wireless charging at up to 50W.
Compatibility with iPhones
This advanced charger comes with a built-in fan for heat management during operation. According to Li Jie, the President of OnePlus China, it delivers the highest wattage for magnetic charging while solving overheating problems. The charger is designed with an extensive cooling system that includes a centrifugal fan, TEC cooling, heat-dissipating fins, a silicone pad, and an aluminum sheet for effective temperature control.

The announcement coincides with Oppo's launch of its own magnetic charger and accessories, which will be unveiled with the Find X8 series in China on October 24. OnePlus is also preparing to launch the OnePlus 13, making the introduction of this magnetic charger quite timely. The upcoming OnePlus 13 is anticipated to support 50W wireless charging, fully utilizing the capabilities of the charger.
