So I purchased both the white Samsung Wireless charger and the black Verizon charger. My thoughts:
I'm upset that they both only charge at 640. This is HALF what a normal USB charges at. Also, the Samsung uses a standard Micro USB as power supply, while the Veirzion has a special adapter (annoying). Also, the Samsung is more sensitive where the device is placed on the pad, has to be directly in one spot or it won't charge. The Verizion has a much larger charging area.
So my question is -
1) Are all wireless charging bases only charging at 640?
2) is there a better charger that used micro USB?
Thanks,
Normal USB 2.0 charges at around 500Mah. Some special ports offer more power.
The stock Samsung wall charger, can output UP TO 2amps
My wireless charging receiver, a generic eBay one claims up to 1amp, and i usually get between 400 and 800 depending on what im doing.
The base itself, I think sends only up to 1amp, so the real limitation is in the receiver in the phone.
Second part of your question, are you asking about the charging plate?
In terms of what charger plate to get, Is the standard micro USB plug so important to you ?
there are some pretty handy ones, such as the Panasonic QE-TM101 that offer a feature where you can place the phone anywhere on the pad and the charge will start.
I cant comment on the Verizon one because im not from america

Yeah, I'd like to get a pad that used the standard Micro USB.
Thanks for the advice!

I have been looking for the same answer you are, I bought a off brand wireless charger off eBay and that charges at 640 as well. So I'm guessing it's the norm right now unless I'm wrong.
But I really wanted a wireless charger for bedside so even if it's slow I'm okay with it so far.

That's expected. 640 is max rate wirelessly. I don't have the Verizon pad, but have several of the Samsung ones (thanks to the 50% off coupons) and none are sensitive to where you place the phone.

I also have the white Samsung pad, and it's significantly more sensitive that the Verizon one. Can you give me a link to which one you've bought.

I've been reading the threads as far as people trying to find a wireless charger set for the Galaxy Note Edge. I found a link of a seller based in South Korea where they have them in stock. I ordered mine this morning.
I can't post any links since I don't have more than 10 post but attached a screenshot in the Word document attached.

OUCH that is pricey... This one is cheaper...
Samsung Galaxy Note Edge Wireless Charging Battery Back Cover S Charger Genuine
His includes the charging base. It's not a bad deal if you want the Qi base to be OEM. If you have another base already then just buy the cover.
I would love to get one of these but that then leads to the question of compatible cases...
I'm waiting for Flip Wallet with charging back.
I am also looking for the same. It is however too expensive for just being a wireless charging battery cover. Can someone confirm if this wireless charging cover is compatible with new wireless "fast charge" pads/stands from Samsung. I mean is it rated to utilize the fast charging capability or will it charge at the normal speed even at a fast charging pad.

Fast wireless charge is only for s6 and up, I think.

As far as I know, fast wireless just depends on whether the base and the charger at the wall are fast chargers.
Either way, the battery and the coil don't care.
I know the m9 doesn't support wireless charging out of the box, but I do know you can buy a wireless charging pad.

Does anyone think wireless charging is worth it?

Since you're asking for opinions rather than experience in the product, I recommend steering clear of wireless charging - especially given the extra lengths needed to make it work on the M9. I've used wireless charging with my Nexus 7 (2013), and while it was convenient, it only saved me those couple of extra seconds to plug it in.... but lost that advantage due to the slower charge time of induction chargers.
I have a certified fast charger for my phone and find that it was well worth the price and does indeed live up to its name.
Hey guys,
So I got this Samsung wireless charger that is supposedly 'original' from Aliexpress.
There's actually a fan inside and it does say that it's fast wirelessly charging on the phone. However it is not that fast - 15% in 40 minutes. What speeds do you get with your wireless chargers? I'm using the original wall adapter from Samsung (9V 1.67A one).

If it cost less than from the samsung store then its not original, it does take 4 hours to charge the phone with the cheap wireless charger.
Of the ones I've used even with my S5, I found the cable and power supply are critical. Lastly the placement on the charger. All of mine have come from an Aliexpress seller. I can't tell you exact times but I know they charge as fast as the phone will allow before overheating. Not to say some sources aren't bad. Just my luck has been good. I even converted some of my S5 vehicle charge pads, simply by adjusting the charge center, and have continued to use them. Anyway, try different cables and usb supplies. if the phone doesn't get warm or better it isn't charging fast.
Outside of the Google dock, I have tried a few "10W" wireless chargers that only deliver slow charging. Looking to see if people can suggest true fast charge wireless pucks. Specifically at a Best Buy or local to purchase.

It's up to 11w fast wireless charging. 10w is still considered fast wireless charging too.

Ah OK, that's my mistake. Good to know, thanks.
Yeah, the dock I bought said it does 10w, but doesn't with our phones. Looking to see if someone else had luck finding one that did the full 10 or 11w wireless charge.

How did you measure it? Just curious, I bought cheaper Lenovo desk puck that says it provides 1.1 A from 9 V chargers, and it seems to be pretty fast, but I have no idea what is actually being put out, and would like to know

I received the Anker wireless charging pad and power supply today.
Wireless fast charging works well.
I've attached a couple pics;
1 - The charging pad, powered up, but idling (no phone sitting on the charging pad). I've got a Satechi USB-C power monitor plugged inline. So, here you can see it's powered with 9V @ 20ma (thus, 0.18W)
2 - The Pixel 4 XL sitting atop the charging pad. Soon after setting the phone on the charging pad, the phone, pad, and power supply work out that the pad should be powered with 12v. So the power supply switches from 9V to 12V. Again, looking at the Satechi USB-C power monitor, the pad is drawing 1.2A @ 12V (thus, 14.4W). I've got the AccuBattery app running on the phone, and it shows the battery charge current at near 2A. That's "fast" charging!!! When I set the phone on the charging pad it was at 65%. A little over an hour later it was charged to 100%.
Net-net... this is a good combo. Maybe a little spendy, but they work.
WOW... to double your wireless charging speed you need to spend 3-4x the $$... 5w you can pick up for $10+... 10w will run you $50+ smh
I'm currently using a magnetic phone mount in my vehicle with my Pixel 2. Has anyone had trouble using wireless charging along with either a magnetic case or with a metal disk inserted in the case to work on the phone mount?
Trying to figure potential gotcha's when I upgrade to a new phone which will probably be the 4XL.

Wow. Appreciate the detail. I am a little surprised that it seems most companies separate the puck from the AC adapter. Dont know why they can make it as one product.
For those that care. I found this cheap one on Amazon for $16.99 CAD. You need to have a qc2.0/3.0 adapter for it but I'm getting fast charging speeds on it.. Charges at 10W. Not quite the 11W that pixel can handle but I'll take it for the price.

Does the screen actually say rapid charging or does it just say wireless charging? I purchased a Vebach charging pad with the 3.0 charging adapter and it still says just wireless charging.
