Should We get the Samsung Wireless Charging Pad?

[raisins]

As the title suggest.

I was thinking just yesterday that it's a gimmick and I will just use the normal wired charging... but after researching and reading others comments, I am now on the fence.

i love the fast wireless charging pad no doubt it is unique compare to many other phone makers not having this

Well the fast charging wireless works as it is. But the amount of time taken to charge is still considerably long imho. Wired is faster, but you will be attached nearby...

Else for wireless charging, it gives you freedom of picking up your phone without the restriction of wires.

The drawback of wireless charging would be.

- hot phone hot charging pad
- slightly longer time to charge, unlike fast charging through cable targets 80% charge in 1hr.
- very expensive as compared to normal chargers with quick charge.

Pros would be,

- close to clutter free
- no wires attached when you pick up your phone
- aesthetically looks good

So far so good
Regarding the charging time
No big deal lah
Unless you going to take it for competition
You tell me .. how much faster?
5 mins? 60 mins?

Received my Samsung wireless fast charging pad yesterday, the phone feels slightly warm during charging. The pad has a fan internally to cool down during charging. Charging with Spigen tough armour case on no problem ,thickest of all Spigen series.

If got LED cover the battery status doesn't show. Only when use wired then it show. Moreover wireless took much longer time to charge...

agree, but bro do you have problem charging properly with a back case? just a thin tpu also cannot align properly with the pad most time so it wont charge unless i remove the tpu case
