Can anyone recommend a wireless charger?

Debating if I should just get the Samsung wireless charger or is there another one that people have used with this phone that they like? I'm hoping for one that would have a bit of grip, and not allow the phone to be shot off like a hockey puck (cats). Also, it'd be great if it's not too picky about how you put it down, so I could do it in the dark. Recommendations?

Thanks
 
The samsung one is ok, but the shape is awkward to me and placement is not always super easy. Plus the LED glow is not ideal for a nightstand in my opinion. I bout this one off of amazon. Roughly close to the dimensions of the phone so placement is not an issue. Amazon.com: RAVPower® Wireless Charger Charging Pad Qi-Enabled (Free AC Adapter Included) for Nexus 6 / 5 / 7 / 4; Samsung Galaxy S6, S5, S4, S3, Note3, Note2; Droid Charge; LG Optimus LTE2, Spectrum; HTC Rezound, Incredible 2, Incredible 4 LTE; Mot

It is only $20 and so far has proven very reliable.

I have this one as well but in black. On my nightstand. Planning to order a second one for my desk at work soon. I've been using it for a week and have nothing negative to say about it.
 
I've been using one I got for about $10 for about a year - no complaints. My only criterion is that it has a light to show when the phone is placed correctly. $50 to have the Samsung name on it? Ridiculous. If I had to get another one, and there was one with a "charging" light (it's really a "receiver drawing current" light) for $5, I'd buy it. They all give you about the same charge current for the same phone.
 
I bought the Itian 3 coil stand wireless charger from Amazon for $24. Includes the AC adapter and usb cord. With the Samsung Flipcase on, it only charges in landscape. Blue led lights when the phone is charging.

I also bought the flat Techmatte in white for $20 from Amazon. Comes with the usb cord only. Will charge through the Samsung Flipcase. Green led lights when phone is charging.

Both of the wireless chargers will fully charge the S6 edge. The chargers do not turn off when the phone is fully charged.

How do you like the Techmatte? It look nice. Does it charge faster/slower than the Itian?

So I bought this one and I totally like it so far. Think I'll get another one!

Both of the chargers charge at the same rate. Just a matter of which style you prefer. I take the Techmatte to work because it is more compact.

I also have the TYLT Vu Wireless Charger. I like the it is upright so I can see it easier on my desk. I also have one of the 25.00 dollar pucks from Amazon. It works fine but the TYLT Vu Wireless Charger charges it much faster.
 
I got the Samsung one...and I must say it does a pretty good job charging the phone...obviously is doesn't have fast adaptive charging, but definitely faster than regular chargers
 
I got this one from Aukey and so far it is working great.

Amazon.com: Aukey Wireless Charger Charging Pad Station Qi-Enabled for Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 Edge, Google Nexus 4 / 5 / 7(2013);Nokia Lumia 920, 928, 1020; LG Optimus Vu2, D1L, LTE2, G2; HTC 8X, Droid DNA; MOTO Droid Maxx/Droid Mini; Blackberry Z30; i

I got mine in black even though they only seem to have it now in white. It has a small LED which is red showing it is plugged in and blinks green when the phone is charging. The LED is not that bright so it would not be a problem on a night stand. It does make a beep when you put the phone on or off the charger.
 
Samsung mini wireless charger works good for me. Have no trouble with placement. Can get them from 20-25 bucks now on ebay.
