Targus brings wireless charging to its new backpack

The Verge

Backpacks that charge smartphones aren’t new. But what about ones that can do it wirelessly? Targus has a new Mobile VIP+ backpack which has a built-in replaceable battery and Qi wireless charging cradle in one of the side pockets. It’ll keep the phone charging in said cradle, the pocket can fit a phone sized up to an iPhone XS Max. The cradle itself connects to an internal battery with a standard USB cable so you can swap it out with a battery of choice. It also has a pocket that blocks RFID signals, if that’s something you need or want. It’s going on sale in the US for US$199 in April.
