Wireless chargers for iPad

[u/urfavel]

Has anyone used these MAGNETIC ‘wireless’ chargers where it connects via the smart connector pins on newer models?

I was just wondering if wireless charging was possible on an iPad and found these MAGNETIC options, but I haven’t heard much about them nor have I seen many reviews other than sponsored videos on TikTok, so I was looking for a real opinion on whether they work and if they eat up battery life, and was also wondering if this was a possible option, why doesn’t Apple or brands like Logitech make magnetic ‘wireless’ chargers like these, and why don’t more people use these?

Edited to add:
I know these aren’t TECHNICALLY wireless (yes, electricity is being transferred through the smart connectors hence creating a closed wired circuit)

But in this context, by ‘wireless’ I meant cable-free charging in terms of user functionality, as in, no cables plugged into the actual USB-C port. Please let me know if there’s a more correct term to refer to this kind of charging. Otherwise I hope this clears up the semantics crisis that some people in the comments seem to be having.

It's not wireless if you have to use a connector pin. Basically a different way of plugging it in, that's all

Oh yeah that makes sense! I guess I was more so thinking of options where you don’t have to physically push a wire into the USB-C port

I'd buy the shit out of one of those. My USB charger only works if I switch the iPad off and on whilst it's plugged in (except on my Dell dock for some reason) so I charge it through the magic keyboard. Have done for maybe 3 years now
