Does the galaxy s6 active support fast wireless charging?

[clayedwards]

Hi,
I recently purchased an s6 active and fast charger which works great but when I plug it into a third party fast wireless charger it doesn't seem to fast charge wirelessly. The only way I can get the phone to fast charge is by plugging it in. Is there an issue with my wireless charger or does the s6 active just not support fast wireless charging?

The fine print in this Verizon site says that the S6 Active doesn't support rapid wireless charging: verizonwireless.com/accessories/samsung-fast-charge-wireless-charging-stand/

The S6 Active only fast charges via USB connection. I have a Samsung Qi fast charger and it only fast charges my S7 Active.

I doubt Verizon would show the S6 Active as a compatible device since the phone is an AT&T exclusive device.

True--but this is one of the footnotes on that page:

"Wireless Fast Charge is compatible with the Samsung Galaxy Note 5, Galaxy S6 Edge+ and later models of the Galaxy S and Galaxy Note series, including Samsung Galaxy S7 and Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge models. Wireless Fast Charge is not compatible with Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 edge or Galaxy S6 active. Those devices will charge at regular speed. Charging your device wirelessly may require the addition of a wireless charging cover (sold separately)."

Ah, I missed that part where it did mention the active in the footnote.

Thank you everyone for your replies. That helps even though it's not the answer I was hoping for.
