I would say Yes, some call it a stand and I call it a cradle, but the point is 
that the phone stands in a somewhat more upright position and hence requires an 
edge or whatever to rest against and that lines up much better than if you lay 
it on a small round pad which has no edges

After I placed my phone on the wireless charger, I routinely touch the top 
right corner of the screen to get the battery level announcement. If it is 
charging it will tell me battery level 60% on AC power. If it is not accurately 
placed on the charger, it just announces battery level 60%.

levels on the watch.
That will be a nice app to have.
Much easier for checking the phone while it's charging.
Thanks,

I think the purchase gets rid of the ads, but may also allow a watch 
complication. I'm going to pay the $1.99 to get rid of the ads.
I'll let you know if anything else comes of it.

Try restarting both devices, does your iPhone charge level then show up on your 
Apple Watch?

It shows it, but shows zero battery ... and it looks like you have to pay $1.99 
to get the watch part. Is that right?

 Hello Richard,

That sounds about right.

If you’re interested there is an app that will enable you to check your

You can then monitor your iPhone charge without disturbing it on the wireless

RE: Wireless charging pad

2021-08-17 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I don't find it all that difficult to centre it, but if you have that problem 
you can always buy a wireless charging cradle. I have one in the living room 
and when the phone is on it, it sits on a sort of 45 degree angle and the 
bottom of the phone rests against an edge and the cradle is basically about the 
width of my phone so it's super easy to line it up. Of course if you had an 
iPhone 12 or are buying a new iPhone this fall and have a MagSafe compatible 
charger that is probably not an issue because the magnets line it up and would 
keep it in place and safe from bumps.

 I like the convenience of wireless

feel it vibrate, here a ping sound, it will say its charging and then it will

Sieghard, I'm not sure what would be different in Canada, but it does come with 
the large, 15 Watt charging block and the USB a to USB C cable. The box says 
"Fast Charging."
But, what it says and what it actually does is not always the same thing as you 
know.
I too don't care about the fast; other than it claims to be such.

There was a 6.% coupon when I was on the site. this is by Nanami, who I do not 
really know; , but they include the fast charging adapter; where the Anchor for 
a few dollars less did not.

It has a 60 day return policy which I like.

Paying the $1.99 got rid of the ads, and it shows both the phone and watch 
levels on the watch.
That will be a nice app to have.
Much easier for checking the phone while it's charging.
Thanks,

To my surprise, the Nanami Wireless Charger that was due to arrive today,

This being my first hands-on with a wireless charging pad, this is what I can

It is about 3.75 inches in diameter.
It comes with the “fast” charging block and a USB A to USB C cable that is 3 
feet long.
When plugged in properly to the pad, the USB C plug clicks into place so you 
know you have a good solid connection.

I don’t know what “fast” charging means on an iPhone SE 2020, but I have a thin 
clear case that is rated to work with wireless charging pads.  My phone went 
from 10% to 100% in a little over three hours.  Again, this is my first 
experience with this kind of charger; but that doesn’t seem fast to me.  Maybe 
I’m missing something.

You do have to make sure it is in the center of the back of the phone, which 
means that if you press the home button at all, it will teeter up off the 
charger so you have to hold it down with the other hand.  When I get a phone 
with no home button, which I plan to do this fall, and if I keep the charger, 
that won’t be an issue.

That is why I like to use a charging stand as it is a lot easier to line up on 
the charging stand then a pad.

It might be just a little bit of a challenge to get the phone placed just 
right.

Thank you. My problem is I seem to be inconsistent in placing it and I’m not 
sure why.. unless the chargers pause to preserve battery health? Sometimes mine 
charges like a champ other times  not and other times it appears to pause.

hi,

 

After I placed my phone on the wireless charger, I routinely touch the top 
right corner of the screen to get the battery level announcement. If it is 
charging it will tell me battery level 60% on AC power. If it is not accurately 
placed on the charger, it just announces battery level 60%.

 

Hope this helps. Keith

I received mine yesterday. I don’t have experience to compare either, 
but I did think it would charge a little faster. It is kind of fun just to lay 
the phone down and have it charge. I do have to pay attention to not bumping it 
off center. I also like just setting my AirPods Pro on the pad.

To my surprise, the Nanami Wireless Charger that was due to 
arrive today, actually arrived on Sunday morning.  Delivered by the US Post

This being my first hands-on with a wireless charging pad, this 
is what I can say.

It is about 3.75 inches in diameter.

It comes with the “fast” charging block and a USB A to USB C 
cable that is 3 feet long.

When plugged in properly to the pad, the USB C plug clicks into 
place so you know you have a good solid connection.

 

I don’t know what “fast” charging means on an iPhone SE 2020, 
but I have a thin clear case that is rated to work with wireless charging pads. 
 My phone went from 10% to 100% in a little over three hours.  Again, this is 
my first experience with this kind of charger; but that doesn’t seem fast to 
me.  Maybe I’m missing something.

 

You do have to make sure it is in the center of the back of the 
phone, which means that if you press the home button at all, it will teeter up 
off the charger so you have to hold it down with the other hand.  When I get a 
phone with no home button, which I plan to do this fall, and if I keep the 
charger, that won’t be an issue.

 

HTH,

My adapter is failing and only charging about half the time; so instead of 
spending $40 to replace it, I'm spending about $16 for a fast charging wireless 
pad.
Amazon makes this stuff too easy.

This being my first hands-on with a wireless charging pad, this is what 
I can say.

It is about 3.75 inches in diameter.

It comes with the “fast” charging block and a USB A to USB C cable that 
is 3 feet long.

When plugged in properly to the pad, the USB C plug clicks into place 
so you know you have a good solid connection.

 

I don’t know what “fast” charging means on an iPhone SE 2020, but I 
have a thin clear case that is rated to work with wireless charging pads.  My 
phone went from 10% to 100% in a little over three hours.  Again, this is my 
first experience with this kind of charger; but that doesn’t seem fast to me.  
Maybe I’m missing something.

 

You do have to make sure it is in the center of the back of the phone, 
which means that if you press the home button at all, it will teeter up off the 
charger so you have to hold it down with the other hand.  When I get a phone 
with no home button, which I plan to do this fall, and if I keep the charger, 
that won’t be an issue.

 

HTH,

RE: Wireless charging pad

2021-08-17 Thread Star Gazer
I like the convenience of wireless charging but I’m 
finding my phone isn’t always centered on the charger. I will feel it vibrate, 
here a ping sound, it will say its charging and then it will just randomly 
stop. The charger is fine, obody else has the problem of their phones not being 
centered, so I’m wondering if any totally blind users who like wireless 
charging can give me a hint?

Hello Richard,

That sounds about right.

If you’re interested there is an app that will enable you to check your 
iPhone’s battery level from your Apple Watch, take a look at:

https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/battery-life/id1080930585

You can then monitor your iPhone charge without disturbing it on the wireless 
charger.

Re: Wireless charging pad

2021-08-17 Thread Brett Campbell
I received mine yesterday. I don’t have experience to compare either, but I did 
think it would charge a little faster. It is kind of fun just to lay the phone 
down and have it charge. I do have to pay attention to not bumping it off 
center. I also like just setting my AirPods Pro on the pad.

Re: Wireless charging pad

2021-08-17 Thread Arnold Schmidt
A little over three hours? That is about how long it would take using a regular 
charger and a cable. I have never used a fast charger, so I have no personal 
experience to share. But my opinion about fast charging in general is that it 
has to be harder on the battery, wearing it out sooner.

This being my first hands-on with a wireless charging pad, this is what I can

It is about 3.75 inches in diameter.
It comes with the “fast” charging block and a USB A to USB C cable that is 3

When plugged in properly to the pad, the USB C plug clicks into place so you 
know you have a good solid connection.

Re: Wireless charging pad

2021-08-17 Thread Malcolm Parfitt
Richard,

As I understand it in terms of wireless charging fast charge is rated at 7.5 
Watts.  So that’s 5 Volts at 1.5 Amps.

To put this into some perspective, the old Apple chargers used to be 5 Watts, 5 
Volts at 1 Amp.  So your wireless charger is a little faster than the standard 
Apple chargers.

If you use wired charging method then your iPhone SE can take a charge of 9 
Volts at 2 Amps giving you a rating of 18 Watts.  This is the fastest charging 
method and will charge from flat to 50% in around 30 minutes.  This does not 
mean that your iPhone will charge to 100% in an hour as the device slows the 
charging rate as the battery nears 100%.

You will also see two other charging profiles that your iPhone will accept, 5 
Volts at 2 Amp giving 10 Watts and 5 Volts at 2.5 Amps giving you 12.5 Watts.  
These are typically found on many power banks.

Hope that helps.

Malcolm Parfitt

RE: Wireless charging pad

2021-08-17 Thread Richard Turner
To my surprise, the Nanami Wireless Charger that was due to arrive today, 
actually arrived on Sunday morning.  Delivered by the US Post Office no less.

This being my first hands-on with a wireless charging pad, this is what I can 
say.
It is about 3.75 inches in diameter.
It comes with the “fast” charging block and a USB A to USB C cable that is 3 
feet long.
When plugged in properly to the pad, the USB C plug clicks into place so you 
know you have a good solid connection.

I don’t know what “fast” charging means on an iPhone SE 2020, but I have a thin 
clear case that is rated to work with wireless charging pads.  My phone went 
from 10% to 100% in a little over three hours.  Again, this is my first 
experience with this kind of charger; but that doesn’t seem fast to me.  Maybe 
I’m missing something.

You do have to make sure it is in the center of the back of the phone, which 
means that if you press the home button at all, it will teeter up off the 
charger so you have to hold it down with the other hand.  When I get a phone 
with no home button, which I plan to do this fall, and if I keep the charger, 
that won’t be an issue.

RE: wireless charging pads

2020-08-28 Thread Alan Lemly
Hi Casey,

I only have one device to charge so I prefer using cables and charging while 
either plugged into my computer or in an outlet with a charging block. But I 
also prefer the wired Apple earpods to any Bluetooth earphones I've used so I 
might have a bit of a bias in favor of wires over wireless. I also have one of 
those Anker 18W chargers that use a USB C to lightning cable and enjoy how fast 
it charges my iPhone SE 2020.

I certainly understand why those with multiple devices would prefer a wireless 
charging pad that can accommodate more than one device. But that's not me and 
since the wireless charging pad also has to be plugged into an outlet, I prefer 
to just use a cable.

Good luck with your research  and charging.

Alan Lemly

RE: wireless charging pads

2020-08-28 Thread Carolyn
I love having my wireless charging pads, yes, plural. One is by my computer and 
one by my recliner. I do not think that they charge as fast as my cable, so do 
occasionally charge with the cable. I got one at Wal-Mart for $19.99 and one at 
the Salvation Army for 99 ¢. Both work. My phone does not over heat. I keep a 
plastic cover over them when not in use to keep dust out. 

Mine are five volts. I could have gotten a 10 volt one at Wal-Mart for $29.99, 
but I'd rather a little slow than fast. Just my opinion, that the slower is 
probably better for the phone.

RE: wireless charging pads

2020-08-28 Thread chaltain
I use a wireless charging pad almost exclusively with my iPhone 11. I use my 
cables for my iPhone 7 and my Airpods. I just like the convenience of dropping 
my phone on the pad. Unfortunately, the charging pad was given to me as a gift, 
so I'm not sure what brand it is. I know it was purchased at Best Buy and that 
it worked with the latest iPhones.

RE: wireless charging pads

2020-08-27 Thread Simon A Fogarty
Yeah I use both a wifi charging pad and normal chargr,

 I have a wifi charging pad that does 3 in one,
So my watch, headphones and phone,

 Can't remember what brand it is but it's a 15Watt  and has a puc for the 
watch,  a hollow section to lay the  airpods in and the phones pad,

 It uses a USB-C cable from the ac plug,

 And then I have a wired power adapter as well because I have 2 devices and 
this lets me charge both at one time if need be.

RE: wireless charging

2020-06-15 Thread Don Moore
The answer to question 2 is no.
 
The answer to question 1 is, if so, the amount is negligible.
 
My experience though with wireless charging is that sometimes the charging 
didn’t take place so I wound up resorting to the wired method.
 
Just my experiences.

RE: wireless charging

2020-06-15 Thread Mike O'Brien
Hi.  A couple of curiosity questions about wireless charging.

 

1.

.  Does using wireless charging use more or less electricity  than plugging in 
a power cord to charge an iPhone?

 

2.Are there any risks of receiving an electric shock while touching the 
charge pad if your hands are damp?

Thanks.

 

Mike

Re: wireless charging

2020-06-15 Thread CoolHappenings

Hi there,

Qi is an open interface standard that defines wireless power transfer using 
inductive charging over distances of up to 4 cm, developed by the Wireless 
Power Consortium.

Qi is a wireless charging standard, and the only one currently adopted by most 
major phone manufacturers. Qiis pronounced "chee." Qi is not the only wireless 
chargingmethod available, but it's the first one that is supported by two of 
the largest and most-influential smartphone makers: Samsung and Apple. 
More on qi wireless charging on wikipedia;

The new se is also being called the 9,
It's a slight update from the 8 but meant as a entry level device.

And yes it is meant to have the home button.

At $325 a share, that seems too high, and harder to buy than when it was way 
lower. I just hope it will stay that much and maybe go up. 

I'll be interested to hear all about the SE. I have heard they'll have a Home 
Button, but find that hard to believe. I am just fine with being wrong about 
that though.

Hi,

OK, I'll wait to see if Apple comes out with the S E or what ever they call it. 
 A faster processor and more future proofing is always better.

I've red a few rumors about what I will just call the S E.  Its suppose to have 
an A13 chip and be the same size as the iPhone 8.  I hope it has two speakers.

I don't know how tough it will be with all of that glass but I would put it in

James,

I don't think fast charging has much of an impact on battery life, but Apple 
uses a different fast charging standard than most others.
Carolyn recently upgraded from the original SE to an iPhone 11, if you plan to 
upgrade in a few months when the SE 2 or whatever they will call it has been 
released, it will definitely be compatible with wireless charging.
I would highly recommend whatever that new SE will be over the now over 2-year 
old iPhone 8, it will be much the same form factor, but most likely it will 
have the latest A13 chip or at least it will have the A12 and it will be more 
future proof than the iPhone 8 and most likely it will also have better battery 
life.

Hi Carolyn,

May I ask you which phone you have.

I am looking at buying an iPhone 8 or the new S E in a few months.

I'm wanting a small phone.  I hope that the S E doesn't have a glass back.  If 
that's what I wind up with.  But, if I get an iPhone 8 it would support 
wireless charging.  Then, I would want to go ahead and try that charger.

Does your charger have a lip around the edge so that the phone can't slide off 
too easy?  And, I am guessing that a slower charge will be less wear and tear 
on the battery.

it.  A faster processor and more future proofing is always better.


I've red a few rumors about what I will just call the S E.  Its suppose to 
have an A13 chip and be the same size as the iPhone 8.  I hope it has two

I don't know how tough it will be with all of that glass but I would put it

The Qi quick charging standard is 10watts (if memory serves) so all 
other things being equal yes. But there are fiddly bits (the USB standard 
didn't really intend for such high rates (more like 1.5amps) so the wall 
transformer, the cable and the charger really all need to cooperate to get best

Personally, I don't worry about the fastest charging ... between my bed

Most of these wireless chargers will work with any appropriate 
USB power input. Obviously, if it's a fast charger it needs higher amps than 
slow charging (so look at the specifications for the wireless unit (power input 
requirement) and ideally match or exceed that with the power output of your 
wall unit. Some iphones have shipped with relatively wimpy chargers, others 
more generously proportioned. But even if you get it "wrong" it will generally 
just result in slower charging, not a failure to charge.

Most of these wireless chargers will work with any appropriate 
USB power input. Obviously, if it's a fast charger it needs higher amps than 
slow charging (so look at the specifications for the wireless unit (power input 
requirement) and ideally match or exceed that with the power output of your

RE: Wireless charging stand question

2020-02-05 Thread James Bentley
Hi,

OK, I'll wait to see if Apple comes out with the S E or what ever they call it. 
 A faster processor and more future proofing is always better.

I've red a few rumors about what I will just call the S E.  Its suppose to have 
an A13 chip and be the same size as the iPhone 8.  I hope it has two speakers.

I don't know how tough it will be with all of that glass but I would put it in 
a decent case.

Based on Carolyn's positive discription of her wireless charger, I am pretty 
sure that that is what I will eventually use.  

I can't wait to get my hands on this phone .  But, I guess I will have to.

Thanks to all,

James B

James,

I don't think fast charging has much of an impact on battery life, but Apple 
uses a different fast charging standard than most others.
Carolyn recently upgraded from the original SE to an iPhone 11, if you plan to 
upgrade in a few months when the SE 2 or whatever they will call it has been 
released, it will definitely be compatible with wireless charging.
I would highly recommend whatever that new SE will be over the now over 2-year 
old iPhone 8, it will be much the same form factor, but most likely it will 
have the latest A13 chip or at least it will have the A12 and it will be more 
future proof than the iPhone 8 and most likely it will also have better battery 
life.

Hi Carolyn,

May I ask you which phone you have.

I am looking at buying an iPhone 8 or the new S E in a few months.

I'm wanting a small phone.  I hope that the S E doesn't have a glass back.  If 
that's what I wind up with.  But, if I get an iPhone 8 it would support 
wireless charging.  Then, I would want to go ahead and try that charger.

Does your charger have a lip around the edge so that the phone can't slide off 
too easy?  And, I am guessing that a slower charge will be less wear and tear 
on the battery.

RE: Wireless charging stand question

2020-02-05 Thread Carolyn
I have an 11 now, and it is in a case, but, James, the wireless charger is 
magnetized. The phone sort of sticks to it. It does not sit high off the table 
at all, maybe half an inch. It seems quite sturdy and stable. As I said, I paid 
$19.99 for it at Wal-Mart, and it has been worth every penny to me. I keep a 
charger in my purse, so that if I'm gone from home for longer than I expect to 
be, I still can charge my phone. 

The charger is round, maybe the size of a great big can of greens. So, 
lengthwise, my phone extends outward from the device. Crossways, though, there 
is maybe a quarter inch or less on each side of the phone. It is very secure, 
with no suggestion that it would fall or get off kilter. I didn't have to have 
any help, just inserted the cable, got a charger for it, since it had a USB, 
connected the thing, and it just works, that's all I can say.

The Qi quick charging standard is 10watts (if memory serves) so all 
other things being equal yes. But there are fiddly bits (the USB standard 
didn't really intend for such high rates (more like 1.5amps) so the wall 
transformer, the cable and the charger really all need to cooperate to get best 
performance. 

 

Personally, I don't worry about the fastest charging ... between my bed 
and desks, there's plenty of time for inductive charging (and when bicycling, I 
use a cable and portable battery).

Most of these wireless chargers will work with any appropriate 
USB power input. Obviously, if it's a fast charger it needs higher amps than 
slow charging (so look at the specifications for the wireless unit (power input 
requirement) and ideally match or exceed that with the power output of your 
wall unit. Some iphones have shipped with relatively wimpy chargers, others 
more generously proportioned. But even if you get it "wrong" it will generally 
just result in slower charging, not a failure to charge.

Yeah it’s great.

I tend though to use my moffi wireless charging pad which I can put my phone 
and airpods on to charge both at once.

RE: Wireless charging stand question

2020-02-04 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Well, let’s see and, what’s more, if their pad costs twice as much as most 
other brand name pads out there. I have a Mophie pad which is about a quarter 
inch wider than the iPhone on each side so I’m not sure how much smaller you 
can make a charging pad, I personally wouldn’t want one where the slightest 
bump means the phone tips off.
There is also a company called Ampere which makes some amazing travel chargers 
with space for charging two iPhones and an Apple Watch or an iPhone,  Apple 
Watch and Airpods.

Re: Wireless charging stand question

2020-02-04 Thread Marie
According to Google, the 11 pro comes with an 18watt charger, so I assume this 
will be sufficient for any of the fast charger?

Most of these wireless chargers will work with any appropriate USB power input. 
Obviously, if it's a fast charger it needs higher amps than slow charging (so 
look at the specifications for the wireless unit (power input requirement) and 
ideally match or exceed that with the power output of your wall unit. Some 
iphones have shipped with relatively wimpy chargers, others more generously 
proportioned. But even if you get it "wrong" it will generally just result in 
slower charging, not a failure to charge.

RE: wireless charging pad and phone cases?

2019-12-14 Thread Richard Turner
This is the first review that comes up on the Otterbox web site about that case:
Great Protection, Wireless Charging Temperamental. 
Great case, offers amazing screen protection when paired with an Otterbox edge 
to edge screen protector. The raised lip on the front of the case is great,
as it doesn’t allow the screen protector to drag on table tops when you put the 
phone down. The case is also designed so that the three camera lenses on
the back will not contact any hard flat surfaces you lay the phone on. The 
downside with all this protection, is at the sacrifice of reliable wireless
charging. I’ve tried more than four different Qi chargers, from lay flat to 
stands, all of which if the phone is not properly situated exactly so will
cause the phone to start charging and then fail mid charge. Of the nightly 
charges over the course of three weeks about 40 percent fail. No case, no 
problem,
phone charges 100 percent of the time as expected. OtterBox claims this case is 
wireless charging friendly, which simply isn’t the absolute truth. I’ve
decided to keep the case for more rugged outings but not as an everyday case.

Re: Wireless Charging

2018-11-28 Thread Greg Wocher
Hello,
Yes you do need to worry about the case when considering wireless charging. If 
you use a thicker case like the Defender wireless charging will not work. I 
cannot recommend a case because I have the 10S and not the 10R I purchased a 
wireless charging stand rather than the pad that lays flat and I like it just 
fine.

RE: Wireless charging my new 8 Plus

2018-09-16 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Whether the wireless charging will work through the case depends on the case 
construction, if it's a relatively thin plastic case it should work, good thing 
is you can always return something to Amazon for a refund and yes, Abnker is a 
very good brand.

Subject: Wireless charging my new 8 Plus

Hi. I upgraded—to the 8 Plus! Got a quick question for those that have 
wirelessly charged their iPhone 8s and 10s. I would like to do this as well. 
I'm looking for a good wireless charger, that's also cheap, and can charge the 
phone in a case. I have one of the Spec Product Candyshell cases, actually the 
same one I used with my 7 Plus. The case is a good one but not as thick or 
heavy duty as the Otter Box cases. I've looked up a few produts on Amazon and 
some wireless chargers say that you have to remove the phone from your case. 
However, an Anchor charger I saw said it can charge the phone regardless of 
cases, and that particular charger is $15 on Amazon. Is Anchor a good brand? 
Thanks for any and all input.

Regards, 

Wayne Merritt

RE: WIRELESS CHARGING, was RE: A Question About Using the Belkin Rock Star Lightening Splitter

2017-11-11 Thread M. Taylor
Sieghard, I follow the same practice as you and, I concur.

Vicky, whether or not to keep a power cord plugged in, can depend upon many 
factors.  

For example, some devices use large power transformers that, depending upon 
where they are placed in the home, the ambient temperature, etc, could cause a 
fire hazard.  

Also, generally speaking, transformers draw power and, consequently, cost you 
money when they are plugged into the A/C outlet regardless of whether the 
appliance is powered on or not.

So, one must use her/his own judgment about what to leave plugged into an 
electrical outlet based upon his/her particular circumstance.

Subject: RE: A Question About Using the Belkin Rock Star Lightening Splitter

I'm surprised Mark bought the splitter, the iPhone 8/8 Plus have wireless 
charging and if I bought one I'd rather invest in 2 or 3 charging pads.
I would put one of these on my night table next to my bed where the iPhone is 
at night, one on my desk at work where I am sitting most of the day and maybe 
one in the living room or kitchen.  
This way if I put the phone on the charging pad in the evening I can use the 
Lightning headset while the phone is charging.  I will have a fully charged 
phone in the morning, while I'm at work I can put it on the pad on my desk 
later in the day (chances are I'll still have between 50 and 80% at that point) 
and again my phone will be fully charged when I go home.
If I need to charge it fast or if I want to use an external battery while I'm 
out and about I can still plug it in and just use a bluetooth headset for these 
occasions.  I just think that being able to charge your phone while it's just 
sitting on the desk or the night table without having to plug it in would 
result in me having a fully or almost fully charged phone most of the time and 
personally I certainly doubt I would miss being able to plug it in and use a 
wired headset at the same time.  For this same reason I would never have bought 
the iPhone 7 or 7 Plus since with it you don't have a choice.
OK, now that is my story and I'm sticking to it no matter what Mark has to say

 It isn’t the fast charging one, but I don’t feel the need to pay $60 for a 
fast charge if I’m just sitting here anyway.  

I do use bluetooth headphones because I don’t want to have to 
plug and unplug the adapter all the time.

When I got it on Amazon, it was $21, but looks like it has gone down to
$14—MSRP is $70.

As far as I know, there are no Qi wireless charging stations that will fast
charge iPhone 8 or X, as it’s required for Apple to  push out an update to
enable this. I’m hoping that it’ll be more than AirPower that will enable
Fast Charging.

I just bought the anchor wireless charger for my 8 Plus. Wow, it sells for 69 
dollars but with the sale I got it for 14. I do not care at the moment about 
fast charging, but I imagine Anchor will come up with an adapter when Apple 
drops its fast charging pad. If not, oh well. I grabbed a deal from Anchor. I 
love my anchor battery. Never had any problem with it so do not think I will 
with the charger either. Thanks for the link. Have been waiting for wireless

Hi Chris,

I don’t claim to understand this fully, but yes, currently the 
technology which charges devices wirelessly from a distance does not 
exist. Maybe it exists in labs and I can almost guaranty that Apple 
is probably working very hard on getting this to work, but for now 
wireless just means that you don’t have to plug in a wire.


As for public spaces, I believe companies like Starbucks and so on 
have wireless charging pads built into tables so you could have your 
phone charging right next to you, obviously nobody would put their 
phone down on a charging pad and then go away and sit down 10 or 20 
feet away.


As for charging when you travel there is nothing which prevents you 
to do this just as you have always done it which means bring your 
Lightning cable and plug it in. However, when Apple releases their 
“Airpower” charger as they call it then for people who have an 
iPhone, an Apple Watch and maybe Airpods bringing this instead makes 
a lot of sense since it can charge all three devices by themselves 
or all three at once and of course as time goes by this may even 
include other devices which adopt the standard.


As with everything once Apple adopts something, in this case the Chi 
wireless charging standard, they not only can pour a ton of money 
into it to make it better but accessory makers will also scramble to 
bring out a wide variety of devices to compliment it.

I think in this case,
It still have the charger for you
With the USB lightning cable as well
So it mean you still can charge your phone using the USB lightning cable

I use a Lifeproof Free case, and I can fit the phone along with the adapter

Hi Chris,



I don’t claim to understand this fully, but yes, currently the technology 
which charges devices wirelessly from a distance does not exist. Maybe it 
exists in labs and I can almost guaranty that Apple is probably working very 
hard on getting this to work, but for now wireless just means that you don’t 
have to plug in a wire.

As for public spaces, I believe companies like Starbucks and so on have 
wireless charging pads built into tables so you could have your phone charging 
right next to you, obviously nobody would put their phone down on a charging 
pad and then go away and sit down 10 or 20 feet away.

As for charging when you travel there is nothing which prevents you to do 
this just as you have always done it which means bring your Lightning cable and 
plug it in. However, when Apple releases their “Airpower” charger as they call 
it then for people who have an iPhone, an Apple Watch and maybe Airpods 
bringing this instead makes a lot of sense since it can charge all three 
devices by themselves or all three at once and of course as time goes by this 
may even include other devices which adopt the standard.

As with everything once Apple adopts something, in this case the Chi 
wireless charging standard, they not only can pour a ton of money into it to 
make it better but accessory makers will also scramble to bring out a wide 
variety of devices to compliment it.

Hello folks,

When I listened to the apple keynote, I did not quite understand the 
advantages of wireless charging.  My understanding is that one needs to place 
the phone on a wireless charging pad or stand for it to charge. This is not 
remotely wireless charging.  That means that we have to worry about more 
gadgets to carry when we travel.  In addition to the adapter and the wire, we

Lois, I will be getting an 8 Plus. Will these work with the 8 Plus or do I need 
another kind. Understand why you need an adapter for other phones, but will I 
need the adapter with the 8 Plus. Thanks for any help you or anyone else can 
give me with wireless charging. I know on the apple roll out Belkin was 
mennameed, but this is much cheaper if it works.

Hello, we have been informed at the September 12 event that all the new iPhones 
will support fast charging, but with a price from what I've read. You have to 
buy an accessory to take advantage of the feature. The charging accessories 
provided with the new iPhones only support the regular charging.

I'm not sure about the iPhone, but the S7 supports quick charging on the 
charging pad, and I haven't noticed that it's significantly slower, but 
I assume you're right and that it is slower than a wired connection.

Since you are already using a wireless charger, do you know if using a 
cover case for the phone would slow down or even be an obstacle for 
wireless charging?

Hi,

Because our new car has a charging pad, I started to research charging 
the IPhone wirelessly.  I found that you can buy an adapter that plugs 
into the lightning port and sticks to the back of the phone to make 
your IPhone charge wirelessly.


I use a Lifeproof Free case, and I can fit the phone along with the 
adapter into the case.  I now have an IPhone that charges wirelessly.  
I love it.


By the way, the wireless adapter costs way under $20, and you can get 
charging pads for just over $10.


Take care,

Lois

feet away.


As for charging when you travel there is nothing which prevents you to 
do this just as you have always done it which means bring your 
Lightning cable and plug it in. However, when Apple releases their 
“Airpower” charger as they call it then for people who have an iPhone, 
an Apple Watch and maybe Airpods bringing this instead makes a lot of 
sense since it can charge all three devices by themselves or all three 
at once and of course as time goes by this may even include other 
devices which adopt the standard.


As with everything once Apple adopts something, in this case the Chi 
wireless charging standard, they not only can pour a ton of money into 
it to make it better but accessory makers will also scramble to bring 
out a wide variety of devices to compliment it.

Hello folks,

When I listened to the apple keynote, I did not quite understand the 
advantages of wireless charging. My understanding is that one needs to 
place the phone on a wireless charging pad or stand for it to charge. 
This is not remotely wireless charging.  That means that we have to 
worry about more gadgets to carry when we travel.  In addition to the 
adapter and the wire, we will need to also carry a pad or a stand for 
the wireless charging to work.


I understood that if many public places provide wireless charging we 
would not have to worry about carrying our charging accessories. 
However, I am not sure I would like to place my phone on a charging 
pad in a restaurant or café, or in an airport terminal.  Unless the 
wireless charging pad is on my table or on the arm of my chair, I 
would not use it.


Can someone who is more familiar with this idea and process explain it 
better to me?


Cheers,

Cris

2017-09-15 Thread Christopher Chaltain
Assuming this all works like my S7 does, yes you can use bluetooth with 
it. You can also use the speaker option when on a call, so no you don't 
have to hold it up to your head. I assume you can do something similar 
with Siri, but I can also just call to my phone with OK Google and have 
it send a text message, place a call, start playing music and so on, all 
from across the room while it's sitting on the charging pad.

disappointed when you get it.

 

I understand you can also buy a case that has wireless charging built in to the 
case.

 

If you do order the stuff, I hope you are pleased.

 

Take care,

Lois

Lois;

 

Well, what charging pad should I buy?

And, how many devices can you.put on the pad at any one time.

 

Thanks

Yes, you will need a charging pad.  Altogether, both would cost $25 if you get 
the ones I got.

 

Take care,

Lois

Hi Sandy,

 

Here is the link to the adapter on Amazon.  It was about $13 US.

for a fast charge if I’m just sitting here anyway.  

 

I do use bluetooth headphones because I don’t want to have to plug and unplug 
the adapter all the time.

 

Take care,

Lois

Hi,

 

Because our new car has a charging pad, I started to research charging the 
IPhone wirelessly.  I found that you can buy an adapter that plugs into the 
lightning port and sticks to the back of the phone to make your IPhone charge 
wirelessly.

 

I use a Lifeproof Free case, and I can fit the phone along with the adapter 
into the case.  I now have an IPhone that charges wirelessly.  I love it.

 

By the way, the wireless adapter costs way under $20, and you can get charging 
pads for just over $10.

 

Take care,

Lois

Hi Chris,

 

I don’t claim to understand this fully, but yes, currently the technology which 
charges devices wirelessly from a distance does not exist. Maybe it exists in 
labs and I can almost guaranty that Apple is probably working very hard on 
getting this to work, but for now wireless just means that you don’t have to 
plug in a wire.

As for public spaces, I believe companies like Starbucks and so on have 
wireless charging pads built into tables so you could have your phone charging 
right next to you, obviously nobody would put their phone down on a charging 
pad and then go away and sit down 10 or 20 feet away.

As for charging when you travel there is nothing which prevents you to do this 
just as you have always done it which means bring your Lightning cable and plug 
it in. However, when Apple releases their “Airpower” charger as they call it 
then for people who have an iPhone, an Apple Watch and maybe Airpods b
