Got Qi Wireless charger w/Receiver for my GS5 and works perfect even with Spigen Neo Hybrid case put on!!. Charges pretty fast too. Took me about 40 minutes to charge from 5%>100%. Now never have to open/close the troublesome charging port cover.

I picked up the OEM Wireless Charging back (Found it on eBay for $35). I tried a few wireless receivers, but they DO break the water-tight seal. I also wasn't a fan of the bulge they caused in the back...they gave the back a cheap look (IMHO). The Samsung OEM Wireless Back is definietly thicker. Also, I tried a Spigen Neo Hybrid, Spigen Slim Armor, and a Diztronic case, and NONE of them will fit with the OEM Wireless Back. HOWEVER, the Belkin Air Protect Bumper fits like a charm and works perfect with the OEM Wireless Charging Back. I love the bumper being minimalistic, and still being able to see the back of the device. I think this is the perfect combo with the OEM wireless charging back. Frankly, even if I didn't have the OEM Wireless Back, I would likely use this bumper. Really enjoying it!

Buy the Samsung Galaxy S5 AIR PROTECT™ Grip Bumper Protective Case by Belkin
Samsung Galaxy S5 (Verizon)
Thanks, Eclipse. Yup, that's the gem I did not own the S4. Did you have to really rangle with the Diztronic case to get it to fit? I tried for a decent amount of time with the S5 and simply couldn't get it to work (was a friend of mine's case - I could always ask him to let me give it another go-'round )
Be carful here my local shop is warning about the inserts as it brakes the water proof seal
They should of made this water proof out of the box then the cases would fit
So I'm in Seoul, South Korea and we do have a Samsung flagship store and apparently they do have the S5 OEM wireless charging back cover in black or white and indeed is a bit thick and I'm having a dilemma whether it is worth buying one.
I use Spigen Slim Armor as my case and looks of it, the case will not fit with the wireless back cover and would have to buy another case but that isn't an option as I don't like any other case out there and I only like Spigen cases.
One option I have is to just buy it to use it to charge and once charging is done then all I need to do is take off the wireless one and put on the regular battery cover back on and use a case. But it can be a hassle to do this each time. But I would rather have a genuine wireless charging back cover than using a knock off.
Any ideas or suggestion?
