Yeah, unless your headphone cable is very short and/or the nearest hard, flat surface is very far, I don’t see any reason why wireless charging couldn’t work as an out-of-the-box solution for this. Some phones nowadays even take 25W wirelessly, which is insane, but the seemingly standard 15W will still trivially top you off overnight.
We’ll take a worst-case scenario where you have an Asus ROG Phone 9 Pro (5800 mAh; very high), a 15W wireless charger, a phone that we’ll just call dead and assume you’re still listening to podcasts somehow for simplicity, you’re not capping at e.g. 80% to protect the battery, and you’re getting five hours of sleep because you were up watching a 3-hour alt history video essay theorizing what the Anglo-Zanzibar War would’ve looked like if both sides had nukes.
You’re talking basically like 30 Wh. So when you wake up in the middle of the night three hours later from chronic insomnia, your phone’s fully charged and there to tempt you away from falling back asleep.
