Does the BlackBerry passport supports Qi wireless charging?

Don't know if it's Qi, but it does support a form of wireless charging and also quick charge

Probably going to be Qi, as they're already familiar with it from the Verizon Z30

Here:

Okay, new SDK, new thing to play with. So far:

• Manitoba exists (720x1280 screen, Z30 radio, R146/R147)
• Passport will have wireless charging
• P9983 confirmed
• Passport has ANX7808 Slimport transmitter
• Passport probably has OIS
• Passport keypad is probably backlit (why else would it have GLO?)

Good, that way I can use the same charger that I already have for the Z30.

Let's just hope it's available for all versions.

If it has qi that would be great!

No . . . a Japanese gentleman has reported in his blog that he has successfully put a Qi power receiver inside his BlackBerry Passport.

P.S.

The BlackBerry Passport of this Japanese gentleman looked a little awkward when Qi power receiver was glued outside.

Guess that would work with the hardshell case on. Wonder if you could just squeeze it in between the back and the hard shell without taping it. Interesting idea!

Please refer to Post # 11. This Japanese gentleman successfully put a Qi power receiver inside his Passport . . . squeezing a Qi power receiver in between the back and the hard shell case would be a relatively easy task.

For some reason that picture didn't show up at first. Awesome!

However I would prefer the temporary hard case arrangement to have easier access to the micro USB port. Looks like the connector and cable fits pretty tightly when it's inside of the backcover.

That looks awesome.
I wonder if it would work with the leather case on too?

...I have the stilgut case which fits nicely & has a leather liner ...I wonder if the qi pads sold are thin enough to slice out a window in the liner behind the passport, paste the qi pad in there, & be able to fit the passport back in the case securely ...also, I would love to find a pad possessing of a pass-through in the connector so one could still hook up the microUSB cable when needed...??
