Good to know. Waiting for Samsung so I can use the 50% off

Received mine today. It's very well made.

It does add a bit of bulk, but I find it fits my hand better now. I don't use a case.

Disappointed to see it adds bulk. I do use a case. Not sure why they can't add wireless charging in the same cover. My LG G3 wireless cover is the same cover with added charge sticker.

I honestly cannot fathom how anyone can plug in the Note 4 charger backwards. If it doesn't go in, turn it around?

The cable has little ridges on top to let you know which way is up.

Some do and some don't...and for the prior people (not you harry) who commented on the wrong way plug...he never said he actually did it. He said he used wireless because he didn't like having to try to figure it out...and for me in bed in the dark it's impossible to see and hard to feel the ridges...

Samsung Wireless Charging Back Cover for Galaxy Note 4 - Android Chargers & Cables

I ordered mine yesterday.

Confirmed with Samsung that these will not work with regular note 4 cases. Hopefully someone releases a case soon that fits the note and wireless back.

The difference in overall thickness between the standard and wireless back covers was measured by a user at XDA at .060".

Don't hold your breath. They didn't do it on the note 3. You could find some that you could make work.

really? half a millimeter is really nothing. i cant see it being a problem for tpu backed cases with the rubber. hardcases, maybe

The Qi charging back in white is finally in stock on the Samsung site for those of you who still haven't used your 50% off coupon! Just ordered mine . Hopefully it won't add too much bulk and still fit with my current cases.

Ordered the Qi charger in black for my Note 4. Of course they sent me one for a Note 3. Ughh.

That looks significant. On the plus side, the camera lens glass is now recessed and thus protected. The flash and heart-rate reader are considerably recessed. I may try the eBay add-on route with the standard back cover.

I just received mine today...In black. Works great, adds a little bulk, but really not bad..I'm talking minimal. The only problem I have is my two cases no longer fit. One is a Speck rubber case from verizon and the other is a Ghostek 2 piece case I purchased off of Amazon. The Speck case I cant even get to cover the phone at all. The Ghostek, I can get on, but I cant use the top piece as the phone is now just a little to thick and the top piece will not snap down as the rubber inside is pushed to far out. Just a heads up...If you purchase a back cover, you're going to have to go without a case for awhile.

So it adds size to the phone,it charges far slower than the standard charger and you have to pay extra for this.

What were the benefits of this again lol
