The Galaxy Watch 7 and Watch Ultra cannot charge wirelessly from Samsung phones

Today, I discovered something quite disappointing. It turns out that the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 and Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra cannot be wirelessly charged using Samsung phones.

It's a shame this feature isn't available, because it would have been very convenient, especially in situations where the charging cable is not readily available. Fortunately, there is a solution! If the watch's charging cable is included, it can be easily connected to the phone, and the watch will be fully charged. It's not as convenient as wireless charging, but at least the battery can be fully charged!

I hope Samsung will consider adding such compatibility in future models!

This is well publicised.
Due to the extra sensors in the watches. The wireless charging cannot be achieved via reverse wireless charging on a phone.
I get what you are saying about not having a cable.
But for me it's a small price to pay for better sensors on the watches

For example, older watches (Watch 4/5/6) could be charged wirelessly with the phone if the chargers were not included. I have charged it myself, and my friends have used it very often when visiting the village and when the watch's battery ran out, I didn't have to worry because I knew I could charge it with my phone. But now I have to get used to it. One less convenience now, but that's not a problem for me.now I read and googled that because of the sensors

The website says the watch is QI compatible however doesn't charge from my Samsung phone or my other Samsung watch chargers, this is frustrating for a watch the cost £600 and then I have to buy additional chargers when I already have some here.

My Ultra 24 charges my Galaxy watch 7.  I think it's the Ultra that does not charge via phone as it has a different charging system.
