Lumia 820 and 920 wireless charging accessories pricing revealed

Since the next generation Lumia announcement lots of people have been wondering on the pricing of those shiny wireless charging accessories. Well, the good news is that it has now been revealed, but the bad news is that you probably won’t like it.

Clove UK is already taking pre-orders for the wireless charging shell, plate, stand and pillow. The accessories will be released alongside the Lumia 820 and 920, whenever the two smartphones launch.

Starting off with the Lumia 820 wireless charging shell – that’s a new battery cover that will enable the wireless charging functionality on your smartphone. The cover costs £20 (€25), but you still need to buy the plate, stand or pillow to get wireless charging working. The Lumia 920 back is already equipped to work with the wireless charging accessories, so you won’t have to buy a new shell for it.

The wireless charging plate costs £55 or €68. The stand goes for £70 or €87 and finally the Fatboy pillow can be yours for £80 or €100.

In case you are interested in the official Nokia JBL Playup portable wireless speaker, you can pre-order it for £145 (€180).

Are you ready to pay such prices for those accessories or you have suddenly lost interest in the wireless charging functionality of the Lumia duo?

The wireless charging kit for Samsung Galaxy S III won’t come out until September

When Samsung announced its Galaxy S III Android flagship, it also unveiled several cool accessories that would allow you to “cut the cord” – go the wireless route on things like HDMI TV-Out (with the AllShare Cast dongle), listening to music (with the S-Pebble) and charge phone without plugging any cables with the wireless charging kit.

Well, it seems that we’ll have to wait for a part of this cable-free dream to come true as the wireless charging kit has been delayed.

Retailer MobileFun UK is reporting that the kit won’t be released alongside the Samsung Galaxy S III, which will hit the shelves in Europe at the end of this month. In fact, it won’t be until September when we’ll get to do some cable-free charging with the S III.

At least if we want to use the official accessory that is – the retailer is reportedly looking into providing third-party alternatives before Samsung finishes up whatever it needs to do before launching the wireless charging kit.
