QiPack: Thinnest Inductive Charger On Market, Adds Samsung Galaxy S5 and HTC One M8 Series to Compatibility List



Denver, CO (PRWEB) May 08, 2014

QiPack, the new mobile inductive charger from Wireless Efficiency, has reached the midway point of its Kickstarter campaign and has just announced plans to make QiPack compatible with the Samsung Galaxy S5 and HTC One M8 series. Potential backers have only 16 days remaining to back the campaign and pre-order their very own QiPack wireless charger. The $ 60,000 funding goal for QiPack, when reached, will cover manufacturing and shipping costs for the first wave of chargers.


Although there are currently other inductive chargers on the market, QiPack differentiates itself in its combination of size and efficiency. At 8.9 mm, QiPack is the thinnest charger currently on the market. Being the worlds thinnest inductive charger doesnt make the QiPack weaker than its competition, however. With a battery capacity of 3,000 mAh, QiPack is comparable to its contemporaries and is more than powerful enough to charge any phone currently available.


Being wired-in is quickly becoming an antiquated saying, says Lance Wu, co-creator of the QiPack. Wires can be frustrating and messy while docks are cumbersome and inconvenient. Plus, when out and about in public, trying to find a power outlet is like participating in a scavenger hunt. QiPack takes care of all of that by eliminating the need for wires or docks, providing you with a simple and convenient pad to charge your phone on.


Qi, pronounced chee, is the Wireless Power Consortiums (WPC) standard for wireless, or inductive, charging. Inductive chargers allow users to simply place their mobile devices on the chargers, rather than connecting them through wires or docks. With technological advances occurring daily in the field of inductive charging, wired charging is a thing of the past.


There are currently over 60 qi-enabled phones on the market with more being added every year. QiPack works with both qi-enabled phones, like the Google Nexus 5 or the Nokia Lumia 1520, as well as non qi-enabled phones like the Apple iPhone 5 or the Samsung Galaxy S4/S5. Devices without qi capabilities simply require a Coil Receiver placed over the phones battery or a Case Receiver that fits over the phone, both of which can be supplied with the QiPack depending on the reward level that backers choose.


QiPacks combination of size and power make it unrivaled by competition, says Wu. Its thin enough to slip into your back pocket, yet powerful enough to completely charge your phone in only a few hours.


Potential backers can still get the QiPack at early bird pricing. With a $ 45 pledge, backers with qi-enabled phones can receive their QiPack as well as a personalized thank you from Wu and co-founder Michael Goyack. Backers can also choose to have their QiPack personalized by pledging slightly more to the project.

The HTC One M8 Draws Samsung and Apple Users in But 46 Percent of Upgraders are Already Loyal HTC Customers, According to Consumer Survey Results from CompareMyMobile



Bournemouth, Dorset (PRWEB UK) 29 April 2014

Gadget recycling comparison engine CompareMyMobile conducted a survey following the HTC One M8 release, asking consumers trading in their old phone what they are upgrading to. The site found:


Key points


????46.18 percent of people upgrading to the HTC One (M8) are trading in an old HTC smartphone
????23.74 percent of HTC One (M8) upgraders are trading in an Apple device
????21.29 percent of all people upgrading to the HTC One (M8) are trading in a Samsung handset
????13.24 percent of all people upgrading to the new HTC One (M8) are trading in an old HTC One

Following the launch of the HTC One (M8) a month ago, CompareMyMobile have seen a 20 percent spike in the number of old HTC handsets being traded in on the site. HTC One trade-ins have seen a 129 percent spike since the launch too.


The site say that this data really consolidates results from its latest survey. CompareMyMobile found that 46.19 percent of all people who said they are upgrading to the latest HTC One (M8) were trading in their old HTC. Results also show that 13.24 percent of all people upgrading were trading in the original HTC One.


CompareMyMobile says that this shows really strong brand loyalty, especially when compared to previous survey results.


Co-founder of the site, Ashley Turner, says: Weve noticed a great fan following online for HTC owners all our HTC news features generate comments that display huge loyalty and satisfaction. This is reflected in our recent survey data showing that HTC have one of the lowest rates of brand transition in consumer device upgrades.


Survey results do show that HTC is drawing in some Apple and Samsung users too though. 23.74 percent of HTC One (M8) upgraders previously owned an iPhone, and 21.29 percent previously owned a Samsung device.


Top 5 brands people are trading in for the HTC One (M8):


1.????HTC 46.18 percent*

2.????Apple 23.74 percent*

3.????Samsung 21.29 percent*

4.????Sony 5.23 percent*

5.????Google 3.17 percent*


*Percentage of people upgrading to the HTC One M8 from these brands following the launch in March


CompareMyMobiles data also shows that around 8 percent of people upgrading were trading in a Samsung Galaxy S4 and 7 percent were trading in an iPhone 5 as people coming to the end of their contracts with certain brands are choosing to switch.


Currently HTC makes up 10.02 percent of all trade-ins on the site up from 7.51 percent before the HTC One M8 launch.


Brand market share on CompareMyMobile for April 2014:


1.????Samsung: 40.44 percent*

2.????Apple: 26.16 percent*

3.????HTC: 10.02 percent*

4.????Sony: 7.24 percent*

5.????BlackBerry: 7.19 percent*


*Brand trade-in market share percentage for the month of April 2014.


Samsung currently makes up the highest number of smartphone trade-ins on CompareMyMobile, having seen a huge spike following its Samsung Galaxy S5 launch. The Galaxy S4 saw a 150 percent spike in trade-ins after the event.


Site experts say that before last year it was unusual to see such trade-ins spikes for non-Apple devices the change seems to mirror consumer trends in the smartphone market, as other manufacturers start to deliver competitive devices.
