Hands on with Microsoft's next-gen Qi wireless charger the DT-903
- On sale in October 2014 for $59 (59 euro), per Windows Central and Engadget in early September[1][4]
Notable features
- Microsoft's DT-903 is a Nokia-lineage Qi wireless charging pad for Lumia phones, with NFC tap-to-pair and Bluetooth 4.0[1][4]
- An LED pulses when the phone battery is below 30 percent, glows steadily while charging in green, orange or white, and double-pulses for a missed call or text[1][4]
- Microsoft's specifications give it as 159 mm long, 76 mm wide and 8.9 mm thick, weighing 150 g, powered over USB at 5 V DC and 2500 mA with a 150 cm cable[2]
- It is larger than predecessors, suits the Lumia Icon, 930 and 1520, and needs Windows Phone 8.1.1 or Lumia Denim for the advanced features[1][4]
- Paired over NFC, the pad keeps a Bluetooth 4.0 link and pings the Lumia for battery information whenever it is nearby; the light's brightness can be set low, medium or high or switched off at night, and notifications are optional[1]
