We\u2019ve all been there, frantically searching for a charging cable while our phone gasps its last breath. Power banks were supposed to solve this problem, but let\u2019s be honest, carrying around a chunky brick in your bag never felt like the solution we actually wanted.<\/p>\n<p>Enter ALMA, the wireless charger from Addition that\u2019s basically saying \u201csorry, traditional power banks, your time is up.\u201d This isn\u2019t just another tech accessory trying to make its way into your everyday carry. It\u2019s a genuinely thoughtful rethink of what portable power should look and feel like in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Designer: <a href=\"https:\/\/addition.life\/\">Addition<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s what makes ALMA different. First, it\u2019s shaped like a slim oval that measures just 9mm thick. That means it actually slips into your jacket pocket or clutch without creating an awkward bulge. Compare that to the standard rectangular power bank that feels like you\u2019re lugging around a paperweight, and you start to see why this matters.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>But the real magic is in how it works. ALMA charges wirelessly and gets charged wirelessly too. Think about that for a second. No more hunting for the right cable, no more tangled cords at the bottom of your bag. You just place ALMA on the back of your phone when you need juice, and when ALMA needs recharging, you drop it on any Qi-compatible charging pad. The whole experience is designed around eliminating friction, which is exactly what good design should do.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The aluminum body gives it a quality feel that separates it from the usual plastic gadgets cluttering our lives. Addition offers 17 different designs across three finishes (black, champagne, rose gold, and silver), so you can pick something that actually matches your aesthetic rather than settling for boring black box number 47. What\u2019s really clever is the packaging. The keepsake box ALMA comes in isn\u2019t just pretty, it doubles as a charging pad. So you\u2019re not buying another single-purpose accessory that ends up in a drawer. The box earns its keep on your nightstand or desk as a functional part of the ecosystem.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Robert Louey, Addition\u2019s chief design officer, said they wanted everyday tech to feel like seven-star hospitality. That might sound a bit dramatic, but when you consider how much of our interaction with technology feels clunky and frustrating, aiming for that level of seamlessness makes sense. The oval shape isn\u2019t just for looks. It\u2019s designed to rest naturally in your palm, creating that satisfying tactile experience that Apple perfected with their products.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Under that sleek exterior, ALMA packs some serious innovation. It uses a custom round lithium-ion battery (the first of its kind for this application) and custom internal components to achieve that impossibly thin profile. LED indicators show you the charge status at a glance: one light means 1% to 33%, two lights mean 34% to 66%, and so on up to four lights at 96% to 100%. Simple, intuitive, no guesswork.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>ALMA works with any Qi-enabled device, so whether you\u2019re team iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, or even rocking wireless AirPods, you\u2019re covered. That universality matters in a world where we\u2019re constantly switching devices or sharing chargers with friends who have different phones. At $85 for one or $170 for a set of two, ALMA isn\u2019t exactly impulse-purchase territory. But here\u2019s the thing: when you factor in what you\u2019re actually getting, a beautifully designed object that solves a daily annoyance, eliminates cable clutter, and happens to be customizable, the price starts making more sense. This is clearly positioning itself as the luxury option in a sea of generic alternatives.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Addition is a female-founded company launched by Laura Schwab, who has decades of experience with luxury brands like Jaguar Land Rover and Aston Martin Lagonda. That pedigree shows in the attention to detail and the understanding that design isn\u2019t just about how something looks, it\u2019s about how it makes you feel when you use it.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>A lot of tech accessories now are afterthoughts, designed purely for function with zero consideration for aesthetics. But ALMA represents something refreshing. It\u2019s technology that doesn\u2019t apologize for wanting to be beautiful. It\u2019s portable power that doesn\u2019t make you feel like you\u2019re carrying around emergency equipment. It\u2019s the wireless charger that finally delivers on the promise of being truly wireless.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/12\/17\/this-9mm-wireless-charger-just-made-power-banks-obsolete\/\">This 9mm Wireless Charger Just Made Power Banks Obsolete<\/a> first appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/\">Yanko Design<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You know that moment when your phone hits 10% and you\u2019re nowhere near an outlet?
