The Anker 10W Wireless Charging Pad might be the best bang for you buck when it comes to all around versatile and affordable wireless solutions.
Coming in at just under $15 USD, you get the convenience of wireless charging and the reputation of Anker.
Listed below are some of the best aspects:
Fast wireless charging: Unlike most other wireless chargers for the price, this charging pad is capable of outputting a full 10W for supported Samsung devices and 5W for iPhone.
Slim Profile: Talk about slim! Prior to this, I have been using the Samsung branded wireless charger which is about 3x the thickness of this and only offers standard wireless charging speeds. Perfect for backpacks, laptops sleeves, or any other traveling situation
Case Friendly: In the world that we live in today, you cannot live without a case. Thanks to this charger, you do not have to make any compromises! This pad is case friendly.
What’s in the box: Anker 10W Wireless Charger, 3-ft charging cable (NO AC ADAPTER) and the usual assortment of paperwork.
Cons
Only able to charge phones, no smartwatch support.
The cable could be a little longer.
Overall, I am very satisfied! After using it for the past week or so, I have to say that it has met if not exceeded my expectations. Aside from the cons, which I was aware of before I purchased it, nothing else has let me down.
One last thing to mention that is not discussed anywhere, but this charging pad does indeed trickle charge. As shown by the picture below, at 91% battery, the charger is outputting 8.8 watts of power rather than the normal 10 watts. Very nice to see that attention to battery life was taken into consideration.
