Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge - Which wireless charger?

Re: Which wireless charger?

Is this a fast charger in the Verizon bundle ?

Yes, it is.

Got this deal too. Really like it.

It's actually pretty easy to beat if you don't want all the crap that it includes? Backpack battery... who wants that? The 2 for 1 fast charger via Samsung might float your boat.

I just started using it today, so I have no decent tests yet.

Great, Let us know. Thanks.

I bought the Verizon Samsung bundle as well. My wife uses the wireless Samsung puck we bought when she got her S5. At the time, the reviews said it was good, but once the battery hit 100%, it would stop charging. If you left your phone on, then it would begin using the battery, but the charger didn't recognize the drain, so it would not automatically start recharging. With the new stand, I put it on when I go to bed, and it's still at 100% when I take it off in the morning. So I'm guessing the technology is better at trickle charging.

As far as that power pack, as a medic who covers some rural areas, I find the external battery a must-have accessory. I've been caught away from the vehicle, out of radio range, and with a dying cell phone battery. I have smaller one that I carry in a pants pocket, and the new one is too big to do that on a regular basis, but does fit nicely in my gear bag so I can grab it when I leave the truck. Just in case...

The new Samsung Fast Charge stand is really nice. Charges every time even with a Spigen Tough Armor case.

Samsung fast charge stand works great. Use with Otterbox Symmetrical case with no problems at all. Got the verzion $99 bundle, Samsung fast stand up charger, fast car charger and Samsung battery pack charger. Good buy in my opinion.

been using my Tylt Vu that I had from my old phone. Several times since I got the phone, it has not charged fully overnight. Last night it only went from 30% to 85% overnight. Wait, come to think of it, I only had the issue over last weekend as well; during the work week it was at 100% when the alarm went off in the morning...much earlier than when I woke up with no alarms on wknd

any ideas?

***it is not a "fast" charger

I bought the ravpower pictured above at Amazon. Excellent.

Is this charger still working good for you? I was looking at this one or this one Amazon.com: Choetech T513 3 Coils Qi Wireless Charging Pad for Qi Enable Devices - Black: Cell Phones & Accessories I don't really think I need fast wireless to just leave it on at night.

I bought this the day I got the phone. So far no complaints.

Yes, it is. Although, I use it at work, so I haven't had to charge from a very low spot just yet to test the speed. I will try to use it later today once my phone is lower.

Update: Tested charge time today. @ 1:40 it was @ 70%. @ 2:41 it was @ 95%. So, about 25% per hour (ish).

Re: Which wireless charger?

I am just checking back on this. How did this charger end up working?

It is actually working very very well. I'm quite surprised for the price but it's been performing like a champ for the past week. I'm not sure how long this thing will last but it's a great bang for the buck for me as of now.

Likewise!

Anyone use the new yootech with the s7 edge? Just wondering if it'll work with the spigen tough armour case on.

I have the rav power pictured above from Amazon. It's very quirky. It'll charge my s7edge to 100 % no problem, but shuts down my data connection. Ive got to turn it back on every time I use it. When I put my S6 edge on it, it'll only get it up to 85% . Then I have to put it on the quick charge cable to complete.

I bought the official Samsung wireless charger stand. Works really well. I have also tried it with a ghostek cloak case and spigen tough armour an both cases still allow the phone to charge.

I agree. Could not be happier with mine.

I have the updated version of this charger. It was $30 I think, from Amazon. Worked fine through the Speck Candyshell Clear case which was pretty thick. Not sure how that compares to your case.

Still happy with the charger. Ditched the Speck for an Incipio, which is thinner but more appealing and not so thick. I would say make sure to get the updated version, not the old.

The grippy surface on the charger works well and I never have issues getting charge to start (i.e. finding the sweet spot).
