A few days ago OnePlus' CEO Pete Lau took to the company's forums and announced that OnePlus 6 will have a glass back. While talking about 'Honest Design' and 'Premium feel', Lau described how the company intends to use different processes to stand out from other phones with the glass back. However, it is highly unlikely that OnePlus 6 will have wireless charging.

While talking to industry sources, Killer Features learned that the chances of the phone supporting wireless charging are less. There are a couple of reasons to support the theory as well. First, OnePlus is not a registered company on Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) which handles Qi standard. Now, Qi is not the only standard for wireless charging but it is one of the most prominent ones. Although most of the smartphone companies have adapted Qi. Unless OnePlus creates or adopts the new standard, it has to make sure there are enough accessories as well.

The second reason is that in the past Lau himself had said that the company right now believes that Dash Charging is the way to go. He had a written a blog post late last year signalling why Dash Charging is a superior standard.

"Wireless charging is an exciting concept that’s matured a lot over the last few years. But given the current state of this technology, Dash Charge is still the superior choice," he had said.

So people who might be waiting for wireless charging on OnePlus 6 might have to wait longer.
