Seems to be decent power pad for work

Still playing around with it. I think charging relies on the phone being on it in a very specific way. so it will take time to get used to that. Works well when set right. Blue charging light could be brighter. Need to read instructions

As working remotely became a long-term situation, I was looking for something I could easily charge my company phone with and grab it quickly to answer calls or texts--ideally at a reasonable price. Enter the Anker wireless charger.

My work phone isn't MagSafe, so that's not an issue, but it does support wireless charging. It's not that using a cable to charge during the day is an issue, but it's more convenient to simply set it down and let a charger do its thing without needing to pull the charging cable out. It also can be a convenient way to charge my personal AirPods without plugging in a cable to that case.

The charing pad itself is a little larger than I imagined it would be, but not problematically so. That may limit its usefulness for travel, but I have only intended to use it at home on the corner of a desk. Perhaps that's a plus for my use case, as it's pretty easy to "hit the bullseye" to get a device charging with a decent size circle.

Charging speed is perfectly adequate for my needs. It's not a rapid charge in that my phone goes form empty to full at light speed, but I'm using it for hours (typically) while I work, so a normal charing pace perfectly suits me, without spending more money.

So far, I haven't needed to replace the cord that came with the device, and I had an ample supply of USB-A type AC power supplies, so this package coming without a "power brick" was no issue--but keep that in mind if it doesn't fit your needs. I also have a god number of micro USB to USB-A cords accumulated from before USB-C began to become the standard, so even if my wire goes bad at some point, I've got replacements that will probably outlast my lifetime.

All things considered, for roughly $16 +/-, this is a perfectly useful device. You get good quality for what it is, in the appropriate price range. You give up roughly the size of a typical drink coaster of desk or table space, which is perfectly fine, and you'll save wear and tear on your device's charger port.

Just remember, it's not magnetic, so if you bump it, it's going to slide off just like it's on any flat surface. If you're good with that, and I'm an epic klutz, and even I'm ok with it, you should be good to go.

I read it wireless charging isn't great for phones so I don't usually use it for mine. Something about the heat and contact distance bla bla. If I do use it with my phone I take off my case first and don't use fast charging. Keeps the temp down enough for me.
I mainly use it to charge my wireless earbuds. It's sooo convenient to just toss em on and not have to worry about when I last charged em. Old phone I figure I should charge? Bam. Someone else needs to charge their phone and they keep stealing my chargers? Here gimme ur phone and I'll leave it on this charger, come get it in a hour!
It IS much slower than a corded charger but I expect that and it's not a issue for me when I'm leaving it on while I sleep. If you want a FAST charge go buy a Switch charger. That thing charges my phone just as fast as the one that came with my phone and it has a longer cord. I have a Samsung galaxy 10+ by the way. Have used it with galaxy buds, cheapo wireless buds, other galaxy phones and a IPhone...something. doesn't get worryingly hot as long as the device doesn't have a case. Also some dummy placed a metal bottom thermos on it for idk how long and I didnt notice anything bad happening

Super fast charging, works through my case.

Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2024

Let me start by say that I love Anker products. They don’t have any business being as cheap and reliable for the price point. I have chargers and cords and battery banks, etc.

I bought this wireless charging pad after getting a paid for AirPod pros, and wanted to stop forgetting to charge them, which I would die to the size factor and not wanting to fumble with them every night. This pad worked perfect for that! Or at least, at first…
And I only use this pad for charging AirPods.

I’ve owned this product for almost 2 years and I’m just about over it. Some issues: 1. Things may have changed in the wireless technology, but in order for my AirPods to charge at all, they have to be RIGHT. IN. THE. CENTER. Of the pad, or else they don’t change. A few millimeters off to the side and I have a nearly dead charging case in the morning, as I just did not charge. To be fair, I’ve gotten very good at this issue and only about once every 60 days do I miss the mark. 2. The product makes my AirPods get WARM. This is also a hit or miss issue, but about twice a week, after leaving the AirPods sitting on the charger correctly all night, my AirPods case will be warm to the touch. I’ve noticed no ill effects from this, but it’s some thing that happens, and it even happens after leaving the AirPods on the change we for less time, and not overnight. And point 3. This one might be the deal breaker. I keep this pad next to me in my bedroom. I’ll listen to stuff using my AirPods before I go to sleep, and I usually will start my day using my AirPods to listen to news or social media as to not disturb my partner. This pad periodically, weather the AirPods are charging on it or not, makes a very faint, rhythm beeping noise. I can’t explain it other that it almost sounds rhythmic to a charging noise. At first it scared me, then I got used to it, but now I almost can’t stand it. Maybe it’s an issue, maybe it’s cause I use it right next to me, I’m not sure, but it’s been a potential breaking point

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect product at a great price

Reviewed in Canada on August 10, 2024

Works flawlessly and charges my phone during the night. It charges slowly compared to Google's USB-C wired chargers, but overnight, it doesn't matter. The only thing that bothers me a bit, is that there is a bright blue light turning on when charging, so in the dark, it can be annoying, but you can kinda put the phone over to cover it. Your phone needs to be placed correctly in order to charge, so for Pixel 8 Pro, you can't put the camera on it, cause it doesn't make good contact.

For the price and it's quality, this is a very good product from a known brand.

Me ha gustado mucho este cargador inalámbrico. Es rápido y compatible con varios dispositivos, lo que lo hace muy práctico. El diseño es elegante y compacto, perfecto para la mesa de noche o la oficina. 🔋 Solo hay que asegurarse de colocar el teléfono correctamente en la base, ya que si no lo pones bien, no carga. Una vez te acostumbras, ¡funciona genial!
