If all goes according to plan, Samsung will reveal all about the Galaxy S25 on that day. January 22, 2025. There are still a few weeks left until the said date, but this is not enough to stop the leaks and rumors. There are some details about these new devices that have already been known for weeks, such as the new design of the Ultra model, the use of Qualcomm in all models, or the rumored feature list of the Galaxy S25 Slim. Today it’s time to talk about something new.
And as you can read in the title: Samsung stole one of the best ideas of recent years from Apple’s iPhone. dBrand, a mobile phone case brand, was responsible for revealing and confirming Samsung’s move. What are we talking about? Galaxy S25 will be able to use iPhone magnetic charging. Yes, we mean the MagSafe protocol.
There have been rumors for weeks that Samsung will integrate Qi 2.0 wireless charging on Galaxy S25although it will not use a magnetic field to attach accessories. Solution? Launch MagSafe Compatible Cases. This is where dBrand comes in: a few weeks before the official announcement, it posted new cases for three Galaxy S25 models on its website.
They can now be reserved, and the most interesting thing is that suggest magnetic ring who can you pair MagSafe accessories released by Apple or third party brands. The phone won’t have a magnetic inner ring like the iPhone, but you can simply add a compatible case to take advantage of the technology.
Apple’s best idea, now on the Galaxy S25
The news doesn’t end there. The fact that dBrand launched this campaign a few weeks after the official launch can only mean one thing: You have permission from Samsung to do this.. And the fact that the company itself admits this “leak” opens the door to another scenario.
It is likely that Samsung releases its own cases and accessories compatible with the MagSafe protocol. That is, the Galaxy S25 could take advantage of MagSafe technology without integrating it directly into official cases: the use of magnetism will begin with putting on a compatible case.
Of course, this is bad news for users who carry their mobile phone without protection, since, unlike the iPhone, they will not be able to attach MagSafe accessories. Otherwise, those who do this usually wear a cover, a world of incredible possibilities opens up.
MagSafe has been on the market since the iPhone 12, so third-party accessories – there are a lot of them here – and from Apple itself number in the hundreds. There are all kinds, at every price and for every need. The fact that the Samsung Galaxy S25 can take advantage of this entire magnetic ecosystem that Apple has created is simply amazing. A kind of robbery disguised as a masterstroke.
