I was a wireless fast phone charger virgin till now.....

[fforest]

I know wireless fast phone chargers have been out since about the time the dinosaurs roamed the earth.....But I just bought my first one on Lazada......

I am amazed at how well the charger works......I was thinking the chargers stayed on all the time but this one only stays on while it is charging....

So do you guys use these?......Strange I never heard anyone recommend these chargers before.....

That’s great….Have never purchased a “fast” charger, only a $3 one on Temu that probably takes 4 hours to get my IPhone near 100%…..but I love it ! Used to think my phone protector got in the way and needed to removed before laying it flat…wrong! Actually stays on the donut-sized platform better with the glove ON

3 months ago I finally splurged on an IPad 10, play so many tournaments on different APPS I was missing out trying to switch back & forth on my phone . What I don’t like is the charging cable/port for the tablet is not compatible with the IPhone anymore, and by extension , any old earphones…..Used to be phone/tablet/charger/headphones……same hole for everything ,not anymore . 
 

Oh and while my $3 charger works great on IPhone , out of curiousity I laid the IPad flat on it but never saw the lightning sign pop up….funny to try but obviously not nearly enough juice to power a tablet

My xiaomi phone came with a 66 Watt fast charger I can go from 20% to 80% in 15 minutes that's fast enough for me

The new Honda HRV has a wireless phone charging pad just behind the gearstick. Saves having a USB cable getting in the way while you're driving. My Oppo, evidently from the days before the dinosaurs, doesn't support wireless charging, though, so it didn't tempt me.

That’s crazy fast …Very useful to have in this day and age

Our KIA EV has one similar to that and saves connections via cables. The bit I like is it even connects the iPhones so they can be used hands free as everything comes up on the dash and a button on the wheel connects you to incoming calls and voice commands connects us to outgoing calls. 
Bloody clever these Koreans. 🤗

The reason I've stuck with xiaomi I have a 4-year-old phone that still gets over 24 hours on a single charge and I'm a fairly heavy user.

My Mercedes E300e is the same. Awesome technology available these days.

My RealMe C55 does not support fast chargers. Old USB for me.

Here is the aforementioned slow charger for 80 baht…..Too lazy to walk up and down 4 stories in the townhouse just to get the “fast one”

I tend to rely on these USB sockets as we have at least 2 sockets like this in each room, so just plug in and leave iPhones to charge. 
Not sure of speeds but who cares?

I do, ever since Musk changed cables to C in the alphabet, which doubled the amount of feckin cable types for us. 
So much tech now is USB charged, like my laptop, hair trimmer, kids toys, Xbox’s controller battery charger, toothbrush’s, torches, LED bicycle lights, iPhone this, iPad that. Even my BP Monitor has a type C plug on it!!!
Every feckin thing is now USB cable charged, where will it all end?

We are doomed I tell you, doomed. 🤪

When my son had his house built in Vegas the one thing that was a must for him was having all the power points also contain a LAN socket as well as a fast charging pair of USB connections. I was surprised as even in the Toilet.

I agree with the USB ports but not sure LAN outlets are needed as much these days with the availibility of wifi.

his house was built 10 years ago so guessing it was more needed back then
