Nokia Fatboy wireless charging pillow - Nexus 4 Accessories

Anyone knows when will this goes on sale? And for how much?
It's designed for the Lumia 920, but since it also use the Qi wireless charging standard, it works with the N4 (confirmed by a N4 reviewer on youtube, can't remember which video that is though).

I'm not buying a charger for a third of the money I spent on the phone, no matter how fancy it looks like.

Looks like I finally know what to ask for for X-Mas from the GF. She always gets pissed because anytime I want something I just buy it instead of waiting to get it as a gift.
EDIT: I just sent her the link and her response was "If you buy that before Christmas I'm going to punch you in the face." ...looks like I did a good job this time.

I think the FatBoy looks cool and easy to carry when travelling, we just need it to go down in price!

Does anyone have a clue if it's actually cushioned (inside stuffed with some sort of foam etc.) or if it's just covered in a pillow sleeve? Reason I ask is I plan on having one of these on my bed, since I sleep in a big bed and don't use a bedside table.

I'm stoked that the FatBoy comes in so many colours - very cool, but the price isn't

Where from? I can only find it here at that price... http://www.airetechit.co.uk/e-shop/products.php?394676 but Ive never heard of them before.

Thanks for the pictures...how stable is the phone on that charger? It's pretty small, looks like it could easily fall off

Update: the charger seems to be switching on and off keeping the screen on at times, when the phone is OFF it charges fine.
Wonder if its software related?
Model:
http://www.nokia.com/gb-en/products/accessory/dt-900/
I bought it in the old fashion way, you know on the outside world.
I am going back to the store to check if it works on their display charger, maybe I just have a faulty one.

Hi, any update if the nokia Qi charger would work? Did you managed to test the phone with the chargers on display? appreciate it. thanks!

For those of you interested in the Fatboy Pillow, do note that inside the pillow part is the exact same DT-900 charger that many have reported problems with (see jmquez above). Not sure if the pillow cures those, but it's worth keeping in mind before spending ~$100.

...On the other hand, this is one of those things where having multiples would be totally fine.

That thing looks like something I would bump in the night and catapult my phone into something hard. Looks cool though.

Thought i'd post this on a few of the threads regarding wireless chargers so people can see that there are other options out there other than the LG pad, nokia pillow etc...
Found this whilst browsing for other QI chargers. Looks quite nice and seems to have a rubbery surface to prevent the phone from slipping.

wow that looks really good, it even comes WITH a Battery! hmmm tempted.... nice to have a spare battery but so far these days my battery lasts me the whole day which is all i need... always a good idea to have a spare though
I'm not certain whether that offer is really outstanding...
The battery is sold seperately for 7-8 USD (shipped), the charger is one of those that you'll get for almost nothing. That leaves 18-20 USD for the Dock.
Not too expensive for a dock but for this amount I'll think twice about a purchase.

Battery goes in upsidedown (versus what the stock battery looks like. Still 1300 mAh.

Thought I'd post this since all of us proud Nexus 4 owners have a non-removable battery. It's a VAAS portable charger/battery for a cheap price of $20 bucks. I'm not sure if that price is limited or if that's how much it's going to be from now on, but it might just be a sale that might end.
At 5,000mAh's it should charge your N4 about 2 1/2 times and it only takes about hour and a half to two hours to charge the battery itself (or so it says).
Probably more useful for girls as guys don't really have purses to carry it around with, but I'll probably pick one up and carry it in my backpack for those long days in college. Has some good reviews and there are some YouTube reviews of it out there if you guys wanna see those. Definitely not bad for $20! And you can charge two devices at once.

I'm gonna guess that's a generic knock off? Looks exactly the same but doesn't have the VAAS branding on the front. Beats me, but at least it's $5 cheaper if you wanna go that route.

It seems the amps on the outputs are different, the Vaas one has one port that supplies 1A and the second supplies 2.1A while the second charger supplies 500mA and 1.5A respectively

That was just once person, maybe his was defective or something. It has 4 stars with some great reviews on Amazon, you should read those if you want reviews.
Considering products like this are usually 50 bucks and up, 20 is really cheap. It's really up to you, but a 20 dollar gamble isn't too bad. If you really want a for sure one, then the 50 dollar ones is what you should look at.
I think I have a powerbar charger on the way, once I get that I'll review it and let you guys know how it is. I believe they're about 75 bucks.

Where there is demand, you will continue to see these exorbitant prices. Give it another year or so, prices will fall.

I'm pretty sure he's referring to an exchange for one that doesn't slip.
Problem is none should be having the slipping issue, especially if I'm paying 70 bucks for one. Why risk wasting my money on something I'm not sure will not have a problem. I'll pass on going through all of that hassle and look elsewhere (which I'm currently doing).

Why not? This is the best device for that!
It's not a dock, but I actually use a Twelve South Compass stand. My current one is rigged with a small Qi charger in the middle for the Nexus 7, and while Nexus 9 can't charge that way, it sits on the stand just fine. I tend to store it in landscape when I do use it.

This is the only thing that I've found, but the reviews are lumped with the lightning version, so its hard to get a good idea on overall consensus. I can't decide if I should order it to find out for myself or not.

Looking at the connector, it appears to be oriented the wrong way. As in to make the tablet plug in, the display will face the dock and not you. I could be wrong on that.
How does the tablet know it's docked rather than connected to a charger? I ask as I'm curious how it will know when to daydream.

Good catch. I hadn't noticed that. Now I'm back to square one.
What about this?
Well the original purpose of a dock is to put the device on the stand for charging and/or syncing instead of having to fiddle around and manually connect a cable. This works fine for that i suppose.
Having it act like a alarm clock or whatever is not what makes it a dock. That's just a feature that some docks have but is not a prerequisite.

To be fair, you probably just jammed it in without regard for your tablet.
Others here don't treat them so badly.
If you're careful, any dock can work.
Just a word of advice for those looking for a dock.
The Nexus 7 and 9 are the only ones I've owned that have the microusb socket the OTHER way around than my other ones.
Any update on the ever dock with the n9? Curious to see if it fits. Thanks.

Been looking for a good dock for a while. Happened to find this on kickstarter.

Seems to fit my needs perfectly.

Charging Dock

I searched and didnt find a thread for charging docks so I'm posting one. I've gotten really used to the wireless charging with my G3 and with wireless charging gone as an option on the 6P, I'm going to want a nice dock to set the phone on at work.
Anyone else feel the same, anyone see any 6P charging docks yet?

I would be interested if there was a nice portrait dock, but not found anything yet. I was hoping for some official accessories.

After looking at this for a bit, I see that it has the usb-c mounted on a roller bar so it moves with the phone.
It actually looks pretty decent. :good:

Looks like those images were from Kidigi, a known manufacturer of desktop docks. Here is their listing.

I tried ordering their Nexus 6 Dock. They don't sell directly, you have to get them through a supplier. In the US, its NakedCellPhones, their store is mostly based off of ebay listings. It took so long, I was able to get 2 RND ones before they carried the Nexus 6 docks.
I emailed Fuz Designs asking if they would make an adapter for the Everdock. Hopefully they do.

If they make a version of that N6 Dock for the N6P and N5X, I'd probably buy a couple of each (N6P for me, N5X for my wife) so that my wife and I could have one for home and work. That N6 dock looks fantastic!

I have the RND branded one for my N6. Got 2 of them. Very nice and very similar if not exactly the same.

Lol, actually that's what took so long for me to find a n6 dock. Most phones have the micro USB the other way so I couldn't get a generic dock for any phone. This makes a lot more sense.

Looks like it is. It says N6P in the description.
FUZ Designs "EverDock" might work.
