That means no matter which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/by-type\/chargers\/qi-wireless-chargers\">wireless charger<\/a> you use, you&#8217;re not going to get anywhere. However, all is not lost&#8230;<\/p>\n<h3>How to add wireless charging to the OnePlus 6<\/h3>\n<p>Thankfully, you can actually add the ability of wireless charging to your OnePlus 6 with one very simple and clever accessory. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/olixar-ultra-thin-usb-c-wireless-charging-adapter-silver-79444?referer=BLOG\">OnePlus 6 Qi Wireless Charging Adapter<\/a> simply plugs into your phone&#8217;s USB-C charging port and provides Qi wireless charging capabilities to your OnePlus 6.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/olixar-ultra-thin-usb-c-wireless-charging-adapter-silver-79444?referer=BLOG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-73596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/79444.jpg\" alt=\"Olixar Ultra Thin USB-C Qi Wireless Charging Adapter\" width=\"450\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/79444.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/79444-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/79444-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/79444-60x60.jpg 60w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Why didn&#8217;t OnePlus 6 include wireless charging as standard?<\/h3>\n<p>After all, wireless charging is relatively little used, is usually slower than wired charging (particularly compared to OnePlus&#8217; super fast Dash charging) and requires physical space inside the phone&#8230; space that OnePlus would rather devote to a larger battery, a bigger camera, a headphone jack or any number of other things that did actually make the cut. Not everyone will agree with this trade-off, but it&#8217;s clear that OnePlus haven&#8217;t just been lazy when designing their new phone; wireless charging is omitted for a reason.<\/p>\n<h3>Wrapping up<\/h3>\n<p>Any other questions about the OnePlus 6?
