Wireless Chargers for Verizon LG G2

[roscko]

Hi all,

Just wanted to see what kinds of wireless chargers you all use with your LG G2. I've done a little bit of searching online for popular wireless chargers, and the below two seem to be fairly popular in general:

• Nokia DT-900 Wireless Charging Plate - $40 on Amazon.com
• LG Wireless Charging Pad - $40 on VerizonWireless.com

Any recommendations on the two chargers above or any other wireless chargers that you've used? Any cons?

Thanks!

I have the Nokia DT-900 from my Windows Phone days and it works fine, but I wouldn't mind finding a charging pad that's bigger. It seems like the Nokia pad is a bit finicky sometimes with the phone placement.

Does the Nokia charger have magnets that hold the phone in place or does it just sit on there? I have the nexus 5 and was thinking of picking up the Nokia charger from ATT for 25 bucks but I wasn't sure if it had magnets like the nexus wireless charger or not. Thanks

No magnets, the phone just sits on it. It works well, the G2 just seems to be more sensitive to how it's placed on the charger than the last phone I used it with.

RadioZero, is the LG charging pad finicky in terms of phone placement, or is it fairly forgiving if your phone isn't placed on the sweet spot?

you can place the phone in any direction on the charger as long as you place it just south of center of the phone.

there is a light on the charger that starts flashing Green when you are on the "sweet spot"

i hope that makes sense. also my phone has the diztronic case and it still works fine.

Awesome. I picked one up at the AT&T store today (waited 30 minutes in queue before someone could help me just to check out the charging pad!). Coincidentally, I also bought a Ditronic case (arrives Monday), so my set up should be identical to yours.

Does the Verizon G2 have magnets in it like the Nexus 5? Or is that just a Nexus feature.

 

[RadioZero]

no magnets that i can tell. slides right off the charger.

I didn't know if the G2 would stick to the nexus charger with magnets like a Nexus 5 would.

I've been using the Vu charger by TYLT for a couple months now. I charge it with a TPU case on and there is no orientation issues, landscape and portrait both work. I got it for 50% off from their black friday deal, however, it's well worth the full price.

Using 2 of the Nokias. They were on sale at arounf $26 or so, Anyway they work fine.

I have the Nexus wireless charger. Definitely has magnets, as the back sticks to it very well and the charger works great! It's small and unassuming and the charger adheres to most surfaces.

I have the Nokia one that I use at work. I've experienced no problems with it. It doesn't charge as quickly as the regular USB charger, but it isn't supposed to. Just plop it down and pick it up if you need to run to a meeting or something.
