Whoa! Bummer that free shipping starts at $49.99 and two of these are $49.98! So pay for shipping or get 3??
---------- Post added at 10:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:43 AM ----------
So I just bought 3. If I bought 2, they wanted $3.95 for shipping and something like $3.72 for tax. If buying 3, then both are $0.00.
I don't understand why though...

Only for US?

Anyone have experience with this one? I didn't see that many reviews on my initial look

Thanks for this, ended up getting two!

got 2 + some rubber for 1.25 so i can qualify for free shipping =D
time to return the LG charger I got last week for 50 dollars. WCP-300

Does not come with the wall charger, and according to Samsung, needs a 2a charger.

Will this work on nex4?

Do keep in mind that the output is like 650mA compared to 1A you get with some other inductive chargers. So charging will be really slow with this

You can get a 2 amp charger at vizio.com for $10 w/free shipping. They are are selling off the chargers they made for the 8" tablet they quit making.
Edited to add: by the time you buy this charger AND a power supply, you might as well get the WCP-300 from Verizon, 39.95 w/free shipping, and some of their stores have them for the same price.

Yes, it's a qi charger from a major manufacturer, so I'm sure it'll work fine.
I'm wondering how the charging time will stack-up compared to the WCP-300. I use the wcp-300 for my nexus 4 in the car, but I'd like another to use in the house or office.

not true my LG WCP-300 charger charges at 650-700 max and i even changed the 1A power brick to a 2 A. I have yet to see it charge at 1000mA. Makes my Nexus 4 incredibly hot too.

I have this and my nexus 4 charges great. Gets to 100% and then stops charging til around 95 then tops off again.

Hi,
Could you please tell me, how long does it take to charge Nexus 4 from zero to full?
I want to figure out the maximum current it draws from the pad. It said to be limited to 650mA, but I believe, it is in case of S4.
Qi standard states, that any certified charger should be able to deliver 5W, which makes 1A at 5V, so Nexus 4 should probably use higher power, since according to its Service Manual, the wireless charging current is limited to 789mA.
Thanks.

How about WaveJuice in indiegogo, the qi wireless charger with 8000mah Li-Po battery.

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).

Galaxy S4 Spare Batteries

I'm interested to get your opinions on what spare batteries to get for your S4. I've been eyeballing these Anker batteries (http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00CBTZ2AG/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1369320958&sr=8-2&pi=SL75) but cheaper is always better (for quality batteries). What deals have you found?
Before this turns into a flame fest for battery saving mods, let me tell you that I can drain any phone's battery and I don't mind carrying a spare. I have 3 spares for my Note 2. I rarely cut on wifi and GPS is always enabled. I'd much rather fully drain a battery and pop in a fresh one than plug in my phone for any amount of time. So please keep the discussion about batteries and not how to limit yourself and save battery.

I'm right there with you on the level of phone abuse. I'm coming from the S3 and I carried 4 extra batteries and have killed 4 in a day. I don't have any real stats yet because its day 1 on this phone, but I bought 2 of the onite batteries from Amazon, with the charger. I don't have any issues with fit.etc and so far.today they are holding up as good as my S3 batteries would. I'll update in a day or two with the battery life

[Metrans] New Generation White Premium Qi Wireless Charging Pad - $42

I was searching through amazon today and found this qi charger that is exactly the same as the Metrans wireless charging puck found here:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Metrans...LG-Nexus-4-E960-NOKIA-Lumia-920-/230947777125
I looked through the video and photos and they both say air box on the bottom. They are exactly the same in terms of design and quality even though this is listed as GMYLE for some reason. Its almost $20 cheaper. Here is the link on amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Generation-Pr...e=UTF8&qid=1369339242&sr=8-1&keywords=metrans.
When I bought it there was 7 left, now there are only 6 left. Its $37.49 + $4.49 shipping was is a great deal instead of buying a cheap plastic, generic one.
only difference I notice is the status led. the metrans is white. I've never seen it green or red during charging.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
I'm debating on whether or not to buy it. I've read the thread and the review from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2153418 and I think it's awesome but have always shied away because of the price + availability in the USA. I don't have any excuse now... so I might buy it. I love the auto-off feature when it gets hot but at the same I feel like the phone staying at high temperature for an extended period of time while it charges may not be great for the long term.
EDIT: Did some research on GMYLE and found their official website with the Metrans MWT02 product listing here: http://www.gmyle.com/collections/ba...cy-charger-with-1000ma-current-output-us-plug
Their website looks pretty cool.. of coarse that doesn't mean that their selling original products but it's more likely that they are.
EDIT 2: I noticed on their website it says that Input:
DC 5V / 1.2A
Output: 5V / 1A
while the eBay and the review from the thread listed above states that it should be
Input 5V / 2A
Output: 5V / 1A
OK EDIT 3: So I tried to email them from the address on their website which says [email protected]. But when I look at the mailto it says [email protected] lol. I don't know why it says Clever Gadgets UK when the company is located in California. I don't know how much I trust this retailer.
Well if you have access to ordering from Verizon in the US I would suggest getting the LG WCP-300 instead since with tax and free shipping it came to $42. The Amazon price is currently at $45.49+$4.49 shipping. I love the LG haven't dealt with the metrans one yet though.

It's supposed to be really nice with this auto off feature when the phone reached 40 degrees Celsius. That's one of the selling points for me. Also, it's a little more expensive now. Used to be 38.

I bought the Amazon one from GMYLE even after all the research I did. I'll let you know how that one goes. The only reason I decided to get Amazon over ahappydeal is because at least I can trust Amazon to back me up in the event that they send me a fake.
I'll post in the thread when I get it/test it.
Ok guys, I got my charger from the Amazon listing. It's legit, no mix-ups and knockoffs here. It's the same box and packaging from the eBay listing (Air Box) and also shows a picture of the Nexus 4 on the side of the box. It's got this super cool pulsating white light when the phone is charging (not the green/red that the Amazon photo depicts) which is awesome. Like the Macbook Pro light if you have ever seen them. You can see the light in the second picture as well.
It works as advertised, charges when you place it on it. I'm still experimenting with it but I think it looks a lot cooler than the LG one. I'm still experimenting with the temperature, it's at 41 degrees celsius right now (It's like almost 100 degrees ferinheight where I'm at right now (no AC just ceiling fan) so that may have a little to do with the temperature.
Would also like to note that the Amazon listing has the incorrect amp on the power supply. It's actually 2A (like it's supposed to be). Picture included below.

I'm curious, do you feel comfortable charging the phone overnight even though it gets super hot? Have you noticed anything odd going on with the battery ever since you started charging over night? I don't use the charger that much because it gets way too hot for it to be good for the phone.
It is a bit hot but nothing odd going on...it stops charging once it hits 100...it then cools down a little bit...then when it goes lower again it just pulse charges

You say that you feel the Metrans "is a more premium looking, overall better charger" but you "don't use the charger that much because it gets way too hot for it to be good for the phone"
Are you saying that you think looks are more important than functionality? Or are you referring to a different charger in the second post?

Mine is not a review unit. Bought it from supercosmos(ebay). LTE is fine in my area. Which is surprising for a korean phone nowadays. Normally its just 3G.

I'm selling mine on Amazon, might as well make a buck off the old G4 battery and charger cradle lol
here mine
In the USA LG has a promo going on with the v10. Get a 200gb sdcard and a free spare battery and charger cradle.
I hope the promo comes with that battery case.
Here's a link to the LG promo for anyone who might qualify and isn't aware of it: http://www.lg.com/us/mobile-phones/v10/promo

I remember a few years ago, the S3 or some other device had this deal as well. I got one of those as well. The title for this "freebie" is a little misleading as it says extra battery, charger and cradle, but nowhere do I see a cradle in the promo pictures. Do they mean battery cradle (charger) that they're showing?

Uhh, not to be a ****, but can you read? The promo title says "Get a free 200GB micro SD card, 3000mAh battery, and charging cradle." Not "charger and cradle."

I get what he's saying. Maybe we both read it wrong, but my impression before I looked at what was actually shipping was that a "charging cradle" would be shipping. I think the issue is that some of us remember what charging cradles look like in the past for phones. The listing to me (before I read examined it thoroughly) made it seem like it came with an SD card, a 3000mAh battery, and a charging cradle -- meaning, a cradle that you can put the phone in and charge the phone. The only charging cradle I had in the past was sort of a mount that you popped the phone in (connected to the USB port on the bottom) and just behind that it had a place where you put the extra battery in to charge that at the same time.
That is actually what I was saying...

I am from those days, which is what I read when I read "cradle" so, exactly, this is a battery charger, not a cradle in which you put in a device and an extra charging bay in the back for an extra battery.
PS, this is what I thought when I read charging cradle: http://www.amazon.com/Cellet-Cradle-Charger-Bottom-Connector/dp/B00753R08K
Oh, yeah, to the other poster who so eloquently wrote, "not to be a ****..." you failed miserably at not being one. Sometimes, you should just be nice, and not resort to anonymous bashing of others.

Portable pocket sized power bank?

Hello I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for a decent pocket sized power bank I could purchase to use my my note 7.

How much do you want to spend and how big of a capacity are you looking for?
I've just ordered the note 7 backpack from Samsung for £44 from ballicom.co.uk.
Didnt want a separate bank as the connectors break if not taken care of. For my note 5 I had a zerolemon which was great.

I'd be happy with a full charge and a little extra.

I bought one of these a few months ago, I haven't actually used it on my Note 7 yet since the battery is so good. But it works great for all the other phones I've used it on.

I also have one of these, it is huge and heavy and takes forever to charge. I only use it when I travel since its so hard to deal with.

I just bought this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01A6HKP7E/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Cheaper than the Samsung alternative and uses usb-c. Will let you know how it performs once I get it.

Find one that has these features
- supports charging the device with Qualcomm quick charge 3.0 over usb c
- battery pack has a fast charge system.. I think some anker devices have a special high output wall port that charges at 4 amps.. charging a battery pack at 1 amp can take like 24 hours..
- supports apple 18 watt charging through usb c and lightning.. 2.7amp I think?
These features would make it a good investment so you can use it with any device.
If you get a large battery pack and it does not charge at a higher amperage, it's going to take forever to charge up....also go with Quick Charge 3.0 over 2.0 for future devices

This one is not bad, takes a while to charge the phone but it does it wireless, and you can charge with a cable too.

If you want your phone to last all week, then this is a great one.

And these are very pockeatble and should recharge the note 7 twice SHOULD.

P.S. When you buy a power pack beware of the cheap ones, they don't always have the capacity that is claimed.

I'm fairly interested in the first pocketable power bank that you've suggested. It seems small and that's exactly what I was looking for. The biggest capacity I found was 5200 mAh. But 10k is amazing. Thanks for the find!

This is 1 of the best and yet the smallest I've tried. Women's lipstick size. What's so good about is that it comes with Qualcomm quick charge 3.0 & FREE usb c cable. Cost only $19.13 with free shipping. If you use the app, cost $18.14 saves $1.

The only bad thing I saw about it was the shipping time. 60 day shipping. Apart from that I might consider it, thanks for the find

I have this one:https://www.amazon.com/Aukey-PB-N15-20000mAh-Dual-USB-Technology/dp/B00RJQB4IU
Aukey 20000mAh. It's amazing but takes a while to charge (obviously due to power size). Used it when I had a 6 hour bus trip to/from work so I could play games or stream movies/music during that time. It's bigger than my note7 though (roughly half inch in each dimension), and fairly heavy so not really for the average day to day, but while traveling or having it in your backpack/bag when not using it, it's wonderful. I take it with me camping and basically any road trips or anything.
Dimensions:
Size (LWH): 6.1 inches, 3.1 inches, 0.61 inches
Weight: 1.19 pounds
