Choetech Qualcomm 2.0 Fast Charging Wall Charger

This is a quality product from Choetech. I received my review unit and overall, it far surpassed my expectations. Here are some things I liked/may not have preferred:
Pros:
1. Stylish, sleek, elegant design
2. Minimalistic yet effective packaging
3. The cord fits in my microUSB with a Spigen case no problems (for those with Spigen cases, you know the port cut out is quite tight and most cords are too big to fit without taking off the case
Cons (specifically related to my PERSONAL preferences):
1. The included cord is not as long as the original OEM Samsung cord which tends to get difficult to maneuver when I'm charging the device and using it in bed.
2. The USB input port on the wall charging puck is place on top which causes the cord to bend to the left while I'm laying in bed. This could eventually damage the cord due to prolonged bending.
Overall, I am very pleased with this product and I would definitely recommend their products to others.

I tested this charger with my phone and 2 Kindle Readers. Everything charged very quickly but the Qualcomm compatible phone which would ordinarily take 2 hours and 20 minutes to charge from the 40% level on a standard charge, took about an hour and a half with the CHOE charger. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QTJZ3D0

Adaptive Wall Charger is awesome!
Those charger works great with all of my Samsung devices. I've got the Note 5, S6, and 2 Galaxy Tab S2 tablets. I've got link to my video review of it below.

Sounds good, fitting with a Spigen case is a plus because I always order chargers that have wide rubber (aux cords too).

NFC / Qi Wireless Charging Battery Leather Door Back Cover Case in BROWN

I just received mine and popped it on instantly.
Guys / gals, this is by far the best presentation I have ever seen in a case/back cover. Way better than OEM IMHO.
It's real leather (smells like a new car with leather interior), cut is fantastic, quality is amazing. I put it on and popped on to my CHOEtech 3coil Qi wireless charging stand and it starting charging instantly, no worries about placement or finding the sweet spot.
The packaging it came in is like a compressed cardboard or particle wood casing you'd keep cigars in. I got the BROWN one.
LG V10 Wireless Charging Battery Leather Door Back Cover Case http://www.ebay.com/itm/281853142038

Hey would you or anyone else have a TYLT VU Charger ? I bought one Amazon when they were on sale but I also have 2 cheaper knockoffs Itian's. All 3 are working for me I picked up the Black Leather Back. But on the TYLT I have issue where the phone will connect to Wireless charging and then disconnect it might do this up to 3 times or 2x and once the screen turns off it will be connected and can tell by the Green Light. The Itian's just plan connect and don't have this issue. I also have a Nexus 6 and it connects with the TYLT just fine without that issue.
Not sure if's really a issue will give it time since I just got the Leather Back today will see how it perform's.
Well now looks like my Itian's are having the same issue but now it won't even connect the light will just Flash from Red to Blue no stop.

Does this feel "soft"?
Current price is 10.49 without wireless charging. How much was it for the wireless charging version? They are currently out of stock so cant see pricing for that option.

I paid $16 on eBay from a US seller. It does have a nice feel to it but really don't matter to me since mine will be a case 99% of the time. I decided for $16 why not since the sticker along is $10-$15.

FWIW, I too bought the $16 eBay back, and was just refunded by the seller today. It has connect/disconnect issues, and heats my phone up way too hot. Seller claims he is removing them for sale, and sending the batch back to distributor. FYI for anyone considering this product t.

I bought the same, paid $14, mine does not have the issues you mentioned. I use a ChoeTech 3coil stand. It is warm while charging until full, like all my Qi devices..

I've had the case for a bit over a month now, ordered the white to match my phone.
The good is that the color matches well, apart from the lines you can see where the leather is applied, it pairs nicely with the phone. The wireless charging works great, and it has a generous amount of wiggle room when placing it on a qi charger compared to my old S6 which was tricky to place just right. It also feels very nice in the hand compared to the textured back, and is much more grippy surprisingly, especially when the phone gets a bit warm, getting your hand a little sweaty.
The bad parts are that it is noticeably thicker than the OEM cover, and you can feel it when you place your finger on the power button to unlock it. The other part would be more likely my fault, since I choose white, but it gets very dirty and it can be tedious having to take it off every so often to clean it. The third and last part, three clips on my case have already broken. They are on both sides, near the bottom. Most likely from constantly taking it off to change batteries, and cleaning it every few days.

I got one white leather and 2 plastic one's, I have stopped using it as some members said they had their phone wireless feature dead after a few weeks, has anyone had this problem.

I got the same case in black from Amazon for $18. It came in the same package and box. The material was fake PU leather. Returned it

They must be taking a loss or something. They're now going for $25 without the charger (still not available)

Cheap but high quality Micro USB cable?

Is there a such a thing?
Tired of having switching OEM cables that charge slowly.
What would you reccommend?

Anker cables are of good quality and cheap.

If you're willing to wait for shipping, there's this chinese brand UGREEN on aliexpress, I have some of their stuff, all chargers are high current and fast charging, high quality (better than good chargers from amazon imho) and DIRT CHEAP.

anker brand cables are way better than samsung charging cables. check on amazon.

I bought these a few months ago and they are great. They fit well with my case and they charge fast.

[Wireless Charging] Anybody Have Experience With The NeWisdom Qi Sticker?

This wireless charger is one of today's deals on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Anker-Wireless-PowerPort-Charging-Qi-Enabled/dp/B00Y839YMU/ref=dp_ob_title_wld
I've heard a pretty substantial amount of good reviews for this charger, so I'm thinking of picking it up since it's only $15. I was also looking into getting an OEM LG wireless charging back, but I'm not willing to pay $50+ for it. Ran across the NeWisdom Qi sticker and it seems to have mixed reviews: http://www.amazon.com/NeWisdom-Wire...sr=8-1&keywords=lg+v10+wireless+charging+chip
Was wondering if anybody has had experience with the NeWisdom Qi sticker. Any overheating? Went bad after a while? Ect.

THE TEAM!!!

Dont bother...I've tried several wireless charging sticker/Qi combos and it just drains the battery.

So i bought the new Wisdom sticker off Amazon. I'll say this--i used a hair dryer as the instruction indicates--and peeled the original NFC only sticker off (or so i thought) and applied the new wisdom. It would register like it was charging but not actually charge as dr_w indicates above.
HOWEVER...frustrated i looked at a couple videos and noticed that the battery doors with the sticker fully removed didn't look like mine. With an exacto knife i picked at the remaining black area only to find there was still copper wire underneath. In effect the original NFC sticker had multiple layers and i'd only peeled off the top. Getting ALL of it up was a challenge...like a real challenge...it did not peel off i had to scrape with a knife for an extended period of time.
At the end of the day though once i had the original sticker all the way off i reapplied the New Wisdom Sticker (which surprisingly survived multiple attempts at reapplying without ill effect). Then setting it on my Spigen charger stand and running the Ampere app i was amazed at how well it was charging. It actually was over 1000ma at one point and after finding it's range (it starts low and builds) it averaged at about 800ma. That was decent enough to charge my phone pretty quick. For reference fast charging is like 1350--1500ma or so. In comparison the Monroy wireless back i bought from Amazon that already had a sticker applied (presumably NOT New Wisdom) typically does maybe 350-500ma.
So the bottom line is it was WAY more of a pain than i anticipated but now i'm stoked and actually rather impressed with the performance.

LEt us know if its consistent. I've had a very similar experience before it began discharging at a rapid rate. Thanks for the post, I'll keep checking back.

Originally had a cheap sticker off eBay that lasted several months, about 3,then the chip in the phone caved out. Got the newisdom the other day and got a Tylt charger to go with 2 Samsung fast chargers and no issues so far. The constant lighting up the phone when it's charged is annoying and the g4 tweaksbox doesn't seem to fix it.

I'm using the OEM LG wireless back and it's quite nice. Feels exactly like the original and fits very flush, no problems with wireless detection on my TYLT charger. I'm actually surprised at how little the back weighs as my understanding is the copper coils should add some noticeable weight but in this case it doesn't. Maybe not that much copper in these OEM backs?

Just ordered an OEM wireless charging back for my V10 (a seller on Amazon has it for $29.99 atm though no prime shipping with the fastest option being expedited shipping) and due to the price, I'd imagine it already being sold out by the time this post is read. I didn't want to get the third party stickers as I want to keep my current back and the third party plastic backs are pretty horrible in terms of feel and fit.
Anyways, what do you guys recommend for a good wireless charging pad? The official Samsung pads look interesting enough as is and I've seen it work with every device with Qi built in or using one of those plug-in Qi pads you place inside a case before the phone though I'm gonna have to wait til my next paycheck to get a pad: already spend a good chunk of cash on an MSI RX 480 and only bought this back due to the steal of a price at $29.99, $36 with expedited shipping. It was that or go with prime and spend $60 on a back

Finally received my OEM wireless back. As expected, the battery door feels exactly like the original back albeit curves near the button cutout due to the extra elevation it adds. Also makes cases a tighter fit if you're concerned about compatibility. Works on my Yootech wireless charger as well as a friend's Samsung wireless charger and Tylt Vu 3, the last two having the best range in terms of surface since the Yootech seems to only have one coil. As for charging, going from 0-100% took about 2-3 hours and the phone got pretty warm too though just a smidgen cooler than it gets when quick charging via cable. The packaging DOES have the description for what would've been a wireless charging variant of the Quickview cover which would attach as a battery door too but I guess that didn't work after all the hullabaloo about the faulty Qi chip. Sucks that the LG logo simply takes place of the rather sexy V10 logo
Either way, I'd recommend getting an OEM back when you can though might wanna wait. Some listing still sell it for $60 a pop and even $100

[Review] Choetech USB-C Accessories (wireless charger, car charger) & Note 7

Disclaimer: I was sent these items in exchange for my fair and unbiased review
It’s been a while since I’ve posted a review here because I’ve been rather busy, so without further ado here’s a short simple review of some new(er) products I was sent.
Choetech USB A-C “flat” TPE cable 2-Pack (Black/white)
I was looking for a cable to replace the fabled OnePlus A-C cables that were out of spec thus were returned last year; Choetech sent me these, and to say the least I was excited.
First, let’s talk about the design at hand. Each cable features a nice aluminum end on both sides with Choetech branding giving it quality (premium is overused) feel alongside the flat region housing the wire. The metal ends will show wear faster than plastic because metal scratches, and I’m fine with that. I appreciate the longer length (1.2[m] i.e. 4[ft]) giving you more flexibility for their intended usage. I’ve used the black cable quite a bit since first receiving it, so I will post a few pictures showing how it wears overtime down below. The flat region of the cable has a nice feel to it coupled with the solid connections where the metal meets the TPE. I don’t feel like these will pull apart, or break anytime soon, so I’m happy with their build. Each cable also has the proper 56k [ohm-m] resistor for the Nexus 6P as it should at this point in the game.
Now, if I had to be picky there is one small issue I experience (rather it’s how the cable is made). Each cable doesn’t have a perfectly flat, uniform, or even area where the TPE (flat area) meets the metal; I’m a little OCD about these things. With that being said there is no issue with the cable’s functionality since that is merely a cosmetic nitpick that I personally have. In the end I would happily buy these cables as a gift, or another lot for myself given how much I’ve been using them.
Choetech 33W USB-C & QC 3.0 Type-A Enabled Car Charger
I own many car chargers, but as of lately I don’t use them because my new car has Android Auto. I recently decided to keep this particular one in my car because sometimes my wife wants to charge her phone, or I just need to have a secondary charging solution for my other phones (Note 7 and S7 Edge). Choetech did something I appreciate here: there is a proper dedicated USB-C port for the Nexus 6P/5X that will output only 5V/3A as it should. The other port is a dedicated QC 3.0 output for all of your other phones like in my case the two Samsung phones.
On the build side you will find a typical glossy plastic body with a matte black back featuring Choetech’s logo, and the ports. There is a blue light that let’s you know when you’re charging, or when the charger is plugged into your car correctly. The included cable is also quite nice, and will give your Nexus 6P 1.5A from the QC 3.0 legacy port, but if you want to rapidly charge the phone, then you will need a USB C-C cable. It’s nice to be able to charge my Nexus 6P and Note 7/S7 Edge rapidly from the same car charger since most of them don’t support the proper USB-C PD standard on at least 1 port.
Ports:
USB-C: 5V 3A
QC 3.0: 3.6-5.5V 2.4A (max)
5.6-9V 2A (max)
9.1-12V 1.5A (max)
In the box:
Choetech 33W Dual port car charger (USB-C and QC 3.0)
USB A-C cable
Overall I keep this charger in my center console as a backup, I just wish it also came with a USB C-C cable for when I want to rapidly charge my Nexus 6P. I own a ton of C-C cables, but not everyone does, so for that reason I hope Choetech includes both cables in the future even if it means adding a few $$ to the price because everyone will benefit from that.
A USB C-C at 5V/3A does seem to still charge the Note 7 ‘fast’ as well according to the phone, but it won’t be as fast as using a QC2.0/3.0 port like the one on Choetech’s other car chargers.
Choetech 30W QC 3.0 Enabled Car Charger
Choetech was nice enough to send me another variant of the car charger I review above. This particular one features two standard USB-A ports instead of a USB-C and USB-A as I wrote about in another review.
The build is identical to Choetech’s other current generation car chargers which is a good thing. On the outside you will find glossy plastic wrapped around seamlessly with a matte black front accented by a blue LED to let you know it has power. The included cable will allow you to quick charge your Note 7 via QC 2.0 since that’s the standard Samsung went with instead of QC 3.0 (same as the Note 7 & S7/S7 Edge).
Ports:
USB 1: 5V 2.4A
QC 3.0: 3.6-5.5V 2.4A (max)
5.6-9V 2A (max)
9.1-12V 1.5A (max)
Choetech Water Resistant pouch
Water resistant pouches might not get a second look given the Note 7’s IP68 rating, but I know some people tend to forget what that actually means. The IP68 certification is conducted using fresh water NOT salt water, brine, or anything else you might encounter using a phone. This pouch will help give you an added level of protection especially when out at the beach, or in situations where you might encounter other potentially harmful fluids.
I tested the pouch with my Nexus 6P, and it fit in there without any issues; since the Nexus 6P is larger than my Note 7, or S7 Edge you shouldn’t have any issues fitting the phone while using a thin fitting case.
Inserting the phone is also simple, all you need to do is ‘roll’ the two plastic locking retainers at the top, plop your phone in, and close them. This process might take a little getting used to because they need to be properly aligned before the tabs will latch down correctly. I only had a minor hiccup with this my first time messing around, after that it was a breeze to throw my phone in there.
Overall I intend on keeping this pouch in my work bag because I encounter fluids that would likely destroy my Note 7 on a daily basis, so the use of a pouch would still help mitigate/prevent damage.
Choetech 10W Fast Wireless Charger W/USB-C Input
I’ve written about my previous experiences with a variety of wireless chargers from just about every well-known company (Samsung, LG, TYLT, Meenova, Tronsmart, Choetech etc..), yet all of those lacked one key thing USB-C. Yes, I know people are probably thinking “that’s a new standard, and I don’t want to switch” or whatever other comment that may cross his/her mind. I think the biggest/best thing to happen in the past year is the increased adoption of the USB-C standard; this includes wireless chargers too!
Although Choetech is not the first company to make a USB-C wireless charger (Samsung made one, or at least planned to in Russia) the mass market availability of this one makes it better.
Design:
As with most wireless chargers you won’t find any over the top odd ball design here, but rather a simple 3.5inx3.5in square that houses sheer happiness in the form of wireless charging. Choetech opted for a 3-coil charger meaning you can place the phone easier with less headache aligning the coils between your phone/charger. I found placement to be very simple, and not require and readjustments once you know where your phones coil is (usually centered in the back).
The charger has a nice little LED that adjusts its brightness based on the ambient light based on my understanding. At night the LED will glow at a much lower level so it won’t bother you while your phone is on your nightstand. Another great feature of the LED is its ability to light up in a different color for fast charging than in standard charging. Slow or standard charging will appear as a solid blue LED, while fast or rapid charging will be a green LED. This allows you to quick see the status of your phones charge (it also notifies you in a way if your phone is charged) making it all the more convenient.
In the Box:
Choetech 10W Fast Wireless Charger
USB A-C charging cable
User Manual
Contact information
Unlike previous chargers Choetech made this one will work using the stock Samsung wall adapter without any issues due to the higher efficiency of this model. I tested mine using the Stock Samsung wall charger, a Choetech QC 3.0 charger, Choetech 6 port QC 3.0 charging hub, HTC QC 3.0 charger, and a Choetech QC 3.0 external 10400mAh battery pack without any issues.
Slow Charging
Fast Charging
Overall:
Choetech made a compelling and bold move over to USB-C for their latest wall charger in a market of old styled MicroUSB power units. This alone makes the charger worth buying, but when you factor in the small footprint, nice high quality plastic build, and versatility (works with just about any QC 2.0 or above wall adapter), then you have an excellent fast wireless charger.
Choetech Note 7 Wallet Folio
I tend to own a plethora of case for every phone, and the Note 7 is no exception to that trend. This is my second folio case for it so far even though I’m really not a big fan of them at all. The case holds 2 cards in the folio section, although I really can’t advise anyone actually putting any in there because it cases the case to become overly thick along with keeping the flap from resting properly. A lot of folios will use some sort of magnetic, or other closure mechanism to keep the case shut, unfortunately there isn’t any such one on this case. The material is a sort of pleather (feels somewhat nice) as is expected on most non-premium cases out there.
Ports:
Choetech kept all of the bottoms ports fully open which can be a good or bad thing depending on what you’re looking for. Most folio cases offer some degree of screen protection, but usually aren’t intended to really take a drop like conventional TPU cases are. The design of the inner shell that houses the phone is akin to what Samsung did with theirs, so I can’t say it’s a particular good or bad thing. I work both in an office, and out in the field, so having a crucial part of my phone exposed is less than ideal, with that being said the bottom cutout will affect everyone’s needs differently.
 
Volume/Power Buttons:
All of the buttons have cut outs that give you ample room to press the buttons when the folio is open. On the other hand, when you close the case it makes pressing the volume keys harder because you have to push around on the side to figure out where they are.
Overall:
There are some fairly large issues with this case including the lack of a closure mechanism (something to keep it shut), hard to find volume buttons when the folio is closed, along with the exposed bottom area which will affect everyone differently. Aside from these issues I can’t say it’s a particularly bad case, or a good one it just falls somewhere in the middle.
