Amazon Basics 15W Qi Certified Wireless Charging Pad for iPhone 16/15/14/13/12/11/X, Samsung and More, with USB Cable, Black

This is a great little charger. Worked great out of the box. There were instructions explaining the light indicators, so no trouble there. Placed my phone on it and it immediately began charging. This is awesome because my old charger was so touchy that you’d have to pick up and replace the phone like 47 times to get it to charge! This one seems to find it first try every time! I am not sure how long it takes to charge, but not more than a few hours. My phone was on 1% and when I checked in it about 3 hours later, it was fully charged, so 3 hours or possibly less, I am not sure because I forgot to check it periodically! I had no problems with anything overheating or feeling hot to the touch. I’m very happy with this, great value for the money!

Great--works perfectly with my grandmother's smartphone! Makes her life easier: when she goes to bed she just places the phone down on the pad and it starts charging. She's 95, and while I'm constantly impressed by her ability to adapt to technology, I still try to make it as simple as possible for her, and this makes her life better.It is also convenient to have at my grandmother's house as a back up for the rest of the family--we have mixed Apple and Android users, and this works for both. If someone is running low on battery and forgot their charger, this is helpful to have!Worth noting, my uncle and cousin used it to charge their phones and claim it is slower than with their native cord plugged in--I haven't done a comparison test or noticed any difference myself, but I don't doubt that the wireless charging technology is slower than the wired (but I wouldn't assume this is a problem withe the specific charger, but rather the charging technology). For my grandmother, this makes no difference, but it could for others.

The 15w rating of this pad is a bit misleading as it is only rated for that for LG phones, which they haven't for 2 years. It's rated for 10w for Samsung phones, which it seems to hit with battery monitoring apps reporting a 1500-1700mAh charge rate (counting the screen on and monitoring usage drain of 300-500mAh ). iPhones seem to charge at the 7.5w rating (I cannot attest to the actual speed as it is a work owned phone). I use an Anker charger capable of 12v 1.5A 9v 2.22A /20W (ASIN B08WX99CYJ). A slow wireless charge is not a bad thing, especially as it doesn't feature a cooling fan. Using a Type C connector is a big plus as well, as many others from reputable brands are Micro USB, and allows you to charge a phone at fast charging speeds if necessary by quickly moving the plug.This pad is temperamental though, often times charging the phone for a few seconds to even a few minutes before stopping and flashing the green LED (error indicated). Picking up and replacing the phone in the same position will often allow it to work. Many reviewers have also mentioned this. It's not a problem if it's used on a desk where you're looking at it, but you do need to check it after a minute or so if you walk away to ensure it is charging.If you have the space, I would recommend looking at the stand version instead, ASIN B0874YN8B9. I have two of them. It charges at the same speed, is far easier to align perfectly centered, and doesn't have the same detection error issue this pad can have.

Works great, better and easier than plugging in the cable

Works great and fast shipping

How to get FAST Charging and not heat!I tried a bunch of different combinations of Qi chargers and receivers.One combination charged VERY FAST!Receiver:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08ZNP3Y76?ref=fed_asin_title&th=12000 mah QI Receiver Type C for Samsung Galaxy A51 - Type C Wireless Charging Adapter USB-c - Fast Qi Wireless Receiver Type CIt is made by YK YKING but if you put YK YKING in the above search, it doesn’t come up.Charger:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CKXKYSMY?ref=fed_asin_title&th=1ESR for MagSafe Charger 15W Wireless Charger for iPhone 16 Pro Max/16 Pro/16/16 Plus/15/14/13/12 Apple Magnetic Charging Pad for AirPods 4/3/Pro/Pro 2 Galaxy S25 Series with Dual USB A/C Ports, BlackSurprisingly, it outperformed chargers rated higher than 15wIn addition, it is built MUCH BETTER than the other Qi chargers, much better/stronger/longer cable and magnet to hold whatever you put on it steady. It is smaller too.Part of the solution to getting best performance out of the charger is the power source you plug it into.To get best charging speed, you MUST plug it into a 9 volt 2 amp source. Less than 9v or 2a, not only will the charging speed be substantially reduced, both the charger and the receiver will run hot, since they are not getting enough power, so they are not running smoothly and consistently and instead varying charge and struggling to stay at optimum.Anyway, I hope this helps.Spent a lot of time, trying different Qi chargers and receivers, measuring charge rates and times and this one combination was immensely faster than all others! Almost as fast as a direct cable, instead of wireless Qi.

The charger will not charge through my case, or if I place it face down. It must have the case off and placed on its back. The light blinks green when I place it on the charger with my case on, or face down, so it knows its there, but green blinking means there is a charging issue according to the manual. When I take the case off and place it on its back, the led changes to blue pulsing, which is the "Charging correctly" notification.I could understand this if it happened with other wireless chargers, but it doesn't. I have a much cheaper no name brand charger on my night stand that charges my phone both face down and on its back through the case.If neither of these are an issue to you, the charger works great and shows as "Fast" charging on my phone display (1.25 hours from 15% to full)

Works as advertised with my iphone 14 pro max.
