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. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of James Bentley Sent: Wednesday, February 5, 2020 4:47 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Wireless charging stand question 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.

When I bought mine, there was a "10," and a "5," according to the Wal-Mart guy. The 10 was $29.99 and the 5 $19.99. I chose the 5. It is slow, but gets the job done. My husband and I thought slower could be better than fast in terms of the battery. It is maybe a quarter inch or less than the width of my phone and round.

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.

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.

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.
