A WPC listing shows a redesigned magnetic ring to avoid Galaxy camera interference.

Overview

  • A Samsung "Magnet Wireless Battery Pack" appeared in the Wireless Power Consortium database with Qi 2.1 support, Magnetic Power Profile, and a 15W rating, listed as model EB-U2500 with a Dec. 5, 2025 certification date.
  • Product imagery shows an extended or cutout magnetic ring meant to clear Galaxy camera modules that sit close to the wireless charging coil, addressing fit issues seen with some Qi2 accessories.
  • Separate leaks point to a first‑party 25W Qi2 magnetic charging dock (EP-P2900), suggesting Samsung is preparing a broader set of Qi2 accessories.
  • Reporting indicates the Galaxy S26 lineup is expected to add built‑in Qi2 magnets, with wireless charging tiers of about 25W on the Ultra and around 20W on the S26 and S26 Plus, though Samsung has not confirmed these details.
  • Coverage suggests the new chargers are intended to work across Galaxy S phones, Z foldables, and Galaxy Buds, but official specs and pricing remain unannounced.
