Samsung Galaxy S4 offers optional wireless charging

Good news, wire haters: the Samsung Galaxy S4 will support wireless charging.

We're hearing that adding wireless charging to the S4 will require a new back cover ($39.99), as well as a dedicated wireless charger ($59.99). The charger is said to hit stores in April, but the back cover may not see the light of day until June.The bad news? The feature will cost you upward of $100.

We can't yet confirm if the charger supports the existing Qi standard (as Engadget reports), which would make it compatible with third-party chargers like the Energizer Dual Inductive Charger.

We'll update this story when we get more information.
