New S6 owner, questions on this whole wireless charging thing

[pheatton]

So I picked up and S6 64GB through BestBuy in order to take advantage of getting a new phone and keeping unlimited data. Now that I have one Im looking at wireless charging stuff. I know that the S6 supports both Qi and PMA but is one better than the other? Does one charge faster or have better mats etc. What are other S6 owners using and what do they like and dislike about it?

I bought this one at AT&T official store when I bought my S6 64GB on May 6, 2015. Works fine for me.

I got the same wireless charger as emilioaponte above and this is my thread on dislikes with this charger:

I've had it since the S6 came out and i plan on going back to best buy to either replace it or return it and get another charger.

I like the look of the Samsung one somewhat but I too have heard weird issues with it.

I'm using my old Nokia Qi charger that I bought with my DNA a few years ago. I use it to charge the phone at night but if I don't place it just right it will falsely indicate the phone is charging. Then I wake up the next day and it's still on 30 percent. That's my only real gripe with wireless charging, gotta get that placement right....

I'm using the old rectangular Samsung charger from the days when you had to buy a new back with battery connectors in order to use wireless charging. It works just fine.

Costco often has a clock alarm with BT and wireless charging. Works well
