The plate, which phone charging through, however, you must purchase separately and the cost of 300 dollars and upwards. And it must be connected to the wall. Ergo completely wireless, you will not. But the cable between your phone and charger to get rid. The back is that charging takes twice as long, three hours instead of half, when charging wirelessly.

Samsung’s new phone supports both WPC and PMA, which is the most prevalent standards for wireless charging.
