What are the battery charging features of the Galaxy Book Flex and Book Ion?

The touchpad on the Book Flex and Book Ion is more than just a touchpad. It’s also a wireless charging pad that can charge any Qi-compatible device, like your Galaxy smartphone, Galaxy Watch, Galaxy Buds, and more.

A simple shortcut button (Fn+F11) starts Wireless PowerShare, which is especially useful for charging a Qi-compatible smartphone and other devices while you’re watching a movie or listening to some music. Find out more about Wireless PowerShare and which devices are compatible.

It’s as easy as just placing your device on the touchpad.

Both the Book Flex and Book Ion support fast charge, which means that even if you run out of battery, you can get hours of use with just minutes of charge.

You can also charge your Galaxy Book with any compatible USB-C smartphone charger and even a compatible external battery pack. So, if you leave for the day without your adaptor, you can easily find ways to power up, even when you run out of battery.
