Fast wireless charging any good?

[Cotano]

I have the Samsung wireless fast charger and it's pretty useful. The only negative thing I've noticed is there's a pretty narrow window to place your phone to get it charging. I'm going to pick up a second charger for work so i don't have to worry about a cord. I'd certainly recommend picking atleast one up to test it out and see if it fits your needs.

Can you tell us the name of that car charger?

I"m finding that the Note 7, on wireless charging, is slower than the Note 5.

I got a Samsung Wireless Fast Charge charger. I noticed it uses a micro USB to plug the cord from it into the wall. The first day it seemed to charge slow but today it's charging faster.

It says that, but it's defaulting to a slower charge when the screen is on. Test it manually by observing or with an amperage app.

gsam does not show amperage accurately in this phone. Any other suggestions?

It should charge somewhat slower, the 7 has a 500Mah bigger battery.

Hmm. I never noticed this with mine. This is what mine says when it has the screen on and is on a wireless charger:

Mine shows that with cable charger that came with it. I either want a wireless fast charger or another cable charger, plus I want a car charger.
Trying to figure out which is safe and and fast charge. Lol

So speaking of wireless charging...I had a Tylt Vu Wireless Car charger that I had when I had an S6. I didn't use it much, but I figured out I'd try it with the Note 7 since it was just collecting dust. I actually liked just sitting the phone in the holster like I always do with my phones when I get in the car. I didn't realize the Tylt Vu Wireless Car Charger only outputs 1A. It's fine if I'm not using GPS or anything, but the phone alerted me that there wasn't a sufficient amount of energy coming in from the charger to overcome the amount of power the phone is using.

So I ordered an iOttie Qi car charger (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...ag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU5355844) which supposedly outputs at 2A. We'll see how this goes! I do really love wireless charging though.

Hmm. I HIGHLY doubt it outputs 2A wirelessly. On the Amazon page it says "standard wireless charging" There are Q& A answers that talk about 820mA maximum.

Yeah I have my doubts as well. But I saw the specs:

Input: 5V 2.0A
Charging Port: Micro USB
Car Charger Input: 12-24V
Car Charger Output: 5V 2.0A

So I'm going to entertain their claims. Lol. I have no issues returning stuff to Amazon hahaha figured I'd try it out. As long as I can run GPS and Google Play Music without the battery level depleting, I'm good. Lol.

Hello all. I'm a day 1 Note 7 owner. My phone is charging very slow. Does anyone else have this problem. All wires are good. Even have the new wireless charger.
