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.

Thanks Louis,
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

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.
Best regards,
Sieghard

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
