I used lots of wireless chargers and fast wireless chargers. Most old fast wireless chargers worked well on my old Note 5 and S7E, but didn't work for my new s8 and s8+. Some stopped after a short working, while some never worked. Even my old Samsung fast wireless charger did that issue. I felt very frustrated. Then I bought a new CHOETECH stand fast wireless charger and got it received yesterday. Luckily, this one "fast charge" well on both my S8 and S8+, as well as my Note 5 and S7E.
I found many people have the same issue, so I share the stand fast wireless charger link here: https://www.amazon.com/CHOETECH-Wireless-Charger-Charging-Qi-enabled/dp/B010B6PSMC/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8
Samsung Galaxy 8S Wireless Charging Issue Solved?
Use a Samsung Fast Wireless Charger with the Galaxy 8S phone with an Otter Box case. When I first got the phone charger worked fine with the phone in the Otter Box case, which has a rubber skin. Began having issues after 4-6 weeks and began removing rubber skin of the Otter Box case. That may work for a while, but recently had to plug the charger in the phone to charge it. I noticed that all issues seem to disappear if I leave the wireless charger unplugged while not in use. If I only plug it in to use it, then I can lay the Galaxy 8S with the Otter box case on the charger with no issues. I wonder if a charger is succumbing to some EMF resulting in some week capacitance affecting the wireless charging. MMMM. Glad it seems to work....for now.

Do you work for Choetech? Seems like a lot of your posts deals with their products.
I have a choetech charger. I would say it is ok
Heat issues?
Yes mine has stopped working as well. The night i had it on the charger it only charged 20 % and both the phone and charger were hot. I have the samsung fast charge with the padding. It only worked for a month. Called samsung and doing a warranty exchange. Gonna sell the junk once i get the new one.
Anyone have any experience with either one of these? They look like they same charger, just rebranded.

Did you do a warranty exchange for the phone or charger ?
I have three chargers and starting yesterday, none of them are charging my s8.
I factory reset and still does not work. Cable charging does work
It does not even recognize being On the wireless charger.
Samsung says I have to send in the phone.
Any suggestions? It is only 3 weeks old

If you have a thick case then it might not charge. Try without. But yeah i did a warranty exchange. Make sure you have proof of purchase and call the number on the box. I told them that my phone only charged 20 percent last night and was very hot both the phone and charging pad. And also tell them i have tried on my wifes or whom ever you want to say, wireless charger and it works just fine. Just so they dont give you crap.
I bought it from them 3 weeks ago!!! Just a week over the exchange time so I have to send it back.
Is it still waterproof etc when you get it back?

I've purchased the Pleson and it works great. I have a Spigen Neo Hybrid with no issues fast charging.
The best thing about the Pleson is it turns off the LED charging indicator so you're starting at a bright green nightlight all night long.
Highly recommend it.

I've had previous models that would stop fast charging but continued slow charging. I can't explain it... but if I unplugged the charger and waited a minute or would start fast charging again.
Not sure why this works...

Does the Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 have wireless charging? Qi? Actually any of the new galaxy tab pro line?
The back is not replaceable like other galaxy devices so an aftermarket replacement back with wireless charging is not foreseeable correct?

It does not have wireless charging. It would take a week to charge it even if it did.
I remember having the Palm Pre wireless charging puck and yes, it was slow. Even doing other things while having it wirelessly charge (watching a movie, playing a game, tethering) would slow the charging rate down to the point where it would actually discharge because the power drain was higher than the charging speed LOL
I had wireless charging on my nexus 7 and loved it. Yes it was slower but it was nice to not have to fiddle with USB cables in the dark. Batteries usually last the day so I just had to put it on at night. If bought 2 Nokia Qi chargers at att when they were on sale for $25. Now they are just collecting dust.

I have a G Pad and have a QI USB wireless charger receiver, basically plugs into USB and stick the coil on the back plate with sellotape haha!
The great thing about this is it can work on phones that don't support QI.
I have got a case off eBay to hide the receiver (it still chargers great) through the case.
I'd say the maximum charge distance was maybe 5 - 7 mm.
It is slow. About 13 - 14% an hour. (Stock was 9%)
I drop it on QI pad at night and its 100% when I get up.
I sometimes put it on when I go out and whatnot. I love it!
I can deal with the charging rate, because its a lot more convenient, I'm one that fiddles with USB cords haha!
Still use USB for phone but converting to full Wireless slowly.
I received my charger from Choetech yesterday and tested it with my moto 360 as well as a few of my other devices.
I figured that I should post my review (from amazon) up here due to the testing on the moto 360. I have bolded that parts people here will be interested in.
http://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Char...r=1-1&keywords=choetech+fast+wireless+charger
First, this is an amazing charger. Choetech always makes good products.
I received this in 2 days and set about testing it.
I was going to make a video showing off this thing fast charging on a Samsung Galaxy Note 5 but I see that there are already 2 excellent videos up showing that. So instead I will show you the things they did not highlight as much.
OK, the quick charge 2.0 wall plug you can get with this is the best one I have ever tried. Just like the other Qualcomm certified chargers, you will get the self adjusting voltages (12v-9v-5v) to give you a super fast charge. The extra you get with this Choetech quick charge 2.0 adapter is the USB port on it is reversible! This is the first charger I have seen with this and I now think everything should have this.
Ok now to the real reason you are reading this. The charging puck itself is a nice clean looking puck.
It is defiantly thicker than the cheapo ones you get for a few dollars. It has some heft to it making it feel more premium.
It has rubber top and bottom to keep both the charger from slipping on your desk or the phone from slipping on top the charger.
It will most defiantly charge your Note 5 or other Samsung devices quickly.
It will also charge your older devices as well. I tested it on a few LG phones in addition to the Note 5.
I noticed no abnormal warmth from the charger or any of the phones I tested this with. This is a very welcome thing as most of my other qi chargers do have heat issues.
One final thing, I tested this charger on my moto 360 and it charged it flawlessly. Most qi chargers fail here and will overheat this watch, this one did not and it charged my moto 360 from 19% to full in about 35 minutes. that is about 15 minutes faster than the stock charger does.
I received this product in exchange for an honest review, this does not affect my opinion of this product.
The fast charging works for a Note 5 or S6 Edge+, right? As far as I know that's a requirement as the new charger operates at a higher voltage.

It will fast charge at a higher voltage on a Note 5 or S6 Edge+, but will work at normal speeds on every other Qi enabled device, including our moto 360.

I have not tried it but I would assume with how well the fast charge one works, the cheaper one should also work to charge out watches without overheating them.
Interesting charger! Are wireless chargers efficient and as quick as cabled chargers? How long does it complete 100% charging your phone?

Just from experience, no science here.
A normal Qi charger will take about 2 times as long to charge your phone as a standard 2a charger.
This fast Qi charger is about the same speed on a compatible phone as a normal cable charger.
The fastest way to charge is with a qualcom certified quick charger and phone, that is significantly faster than a standard charger.
Think I'll pick one up,no overheating,that's worth it alone.
Is there a fast (qi fast) charger for the car with decent retention? I really...really need one haha
Not cheap anymore, but the Samsung one is the best I have found. I have 4 of them in my fleet. Only thing is I recommend a 90 degree down bend micro USB cable for neater appearance.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NT5LDJ0/
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EBGGXS2/
On a couple of cars, I bought the appropriate ProClip mount for the car, and then cut the arm off of the base of the charger, and JB Welded it to the Proclip mount.

I believe both the S6 and S7 have in settings a check box to enable or disable fast charging. But does Android actually have a way of telling anyone when it is actually fast charging verses not fast charging? I never seen any messages like that. I have the other Samsung Qi charging pads - the one that is flat and the newer one that is a stand and never seen any messages indicating they fast charge. And even when I plug it in to the stock USB charger there is no indication it is fast charging. So how does one actually tell?
I bought this one. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01JRTHAE8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It does fast charge, you get a notification when it charging.

Interesting, I bought that a while back and it didn't fast charge my Note 5 so I returned it. Plus the back doesn't support my setup so I didn't wait to test on the S8+.
Just used it last week. Gave the notification it was fast charging, and the time till full. Seemed to work great for me. Only problem I have is the vent clip doesn't work on the vents in my jeep.
That would be specific to the vehicle though

My S8 Plus arrived today. The charger I recommended above does NOT provide any messages that it is fast charging but I was not using a factory Samsung charger. I switched it to a factory Samsung charger, but still the same. The cord I have to use not factory either because the factory one is too short and I have heard sometime those can cause the fast charging not to work. Seems pretty slow charging so whatever I have setup here is not fast charging capable it seems. So YMMV.
Easiest thing s do what I did. Find a Radio Shack going out of business, get a disc style charger and a Samsung fast car charger, gut the disc, cut it down and install it somewhere under a cubby hole or console. I did it in my Mercedes, first in the cubby hole under the stereo in a single DIN arrangement, then moved it to the arm rest in the console running a cable off the cigarette lighter. Car chargers aren't easy to find for Qi, so i got inventive and made my own.
I haven't been able to find a single car charger worth a damn, including the 80 dollar samsung. I'm thinking of the charging pad mounted in my console as well. Ugh wish someone would make a decent car charger that's wireless

Like stated before, this one is fairly cheap for what it is. You get two style of mounts. If you have a jeep like me, you will probably have to use the window mount. When I used my rental last week which was a Nissan sentra the vent mount worked great.
It definitely does fast wireless charging as long as you use a compatible charge input. My radio didn't have enough output and did regular speed wireless charging. Used the cigarette charger output that came with it and tada fast wireless charging. As the pics show on my Verizon s8 plus

I use the iOttie Qi mount and it works well.
I got this one yesterday. How can I prove or disprove that it is truly a fast charging wireless device? Should I let my phone get down to a really low percentage (and what would that be)? I'm happy with the setup. Long micro USB cord, both dash and vent mount (I'm using the vent mount, works fine in my Sienna). Even though I've only have it a day, it did top up my phone from 92% to 100% in a 5 minute drive.
Update May 8: when I put the phone in the charger it briefly indicates on the the screen that it is Fast Charging.
I'm really satisfied with this setup.

I ordered this one today. I was looking for one that went in the vent and noticed it comes with a bracket for this. I went with the $40 3 coil version (probably over kill) but I was either paying $5 for one day prime shipping on the $30 one or pay $40 with free one day shipping for the "better" version. Figured $5 extra for the next level one wasn't going to kill me. I previously used the Scoche magnetic vent dock but it interferes with my wireless charging at home. Once I decided I needed a new dock for the car, I figured I'd go with a wireless charger to get the job done. Love that it also comes with the clips to organize the wire clutter a bit too.

I picked up a Samsung Convertible pad from Amazon for $29. It was a Amazon Store return and was marked as like new. There wasn't a mark on it and still had the protective plastic film on it. I love it and it charges fine through my Otterbox case. It may be worth looking at the pre-owned original chargers that Amazon sells.
I got the official charger for S9/S9+ from Samsung (Wireless Qi Fast Charge Standing Samsung EP-N5100) and it's great. It has a cooler included in case of overheating, while charging (fast or not, the phone will get hotter than charging through cable). Phone will charge slower than doing it through cable (not by much), due to some part of the energy that it's transformed into heat, so the cooler is a good idea.
I fail to see the difference between this and the S8/S8+ and S7/S7 Edge Qi chargers.
I use the Anker Fast Wireless charger downstairs for when I want a quick top up. It works great with the S9 - low profile and 100% reliable. http://smile.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01KJL4XNY/
On my bedside table I have an Elephas wireless charging stand - this one charges at normal speed, better for an overnight charge.
I love wireless charging and really missed it when I have a Pixel 2. It was one reason I moved to the S9.

I have the sandstone and carbonfiber-ish (aramid?) case plus a super thick silicone case and the charger works fine with all three.
That's so weird... Maybe I should return the base unit?
Edit - it seems to connect for a second, then when I rest it fully in the cradle it starts blinking red and doesn't charge.
NEVER MIND!!! I figured it out from this thread - https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/warp-30-wireless-charger-flashing-red.1228344/#post-21730493
I had stuck a metal plate on the back for attaching to my car mount. Apparently any metal on the back interferes with the charging. I took it off and now it works fine. Super face palm, thanks and sorry guys!
Am I the only person that thinks 50w wireless charging kinda defeats the whole point of wireless charging? For me, wireless charging is a hardware-sympathetic way to charge your battery slower without fatigue on the charging port, or to keep a phone topped off so you don't have to plug it in as often.
50w wireless charging is horribly inefficient because of wasted energy and will likely heat the phone's battery to a crisp. It would also charge way too fast to keep a phone in the 70%-90% sweet spot of charge while sitting at a desk.
I wish OnePlus would put out a 15w wireless charger, I'd buy that in a heartbeat. Technically the OnePlus 9 Pro should work with 15w Qi chargers but I haven't seen any advertised as compatible so I'm wary (all I've seen claim to only charge LG phones at 15w).
Pro tip.. you can use the 30w wireless charger from the OnePlus 8 pro and get the same charging speeds! My OnePlus 9 pro charged from 0% to 100% in 43 minutes with the warp 30 wireless...

I can see how some people may view it at pointless but to me the idea of wireless charging is to drop wear and tear on the port. So whilst most of us do charge overnight where high speeds aren't needed. I also like to put on charge if I'm not doing anything for 10-15 minutes (grabbing shower, mowing grass etc) this ensures that I've zero issues with battery being dead later in the day.
Regarding other QI chargers, I also have this one https://www.amazon.co.uk/Anker-Qi-Certified-Compatible-Fast-Charging-PowerWave/dp/B07DBXZZN3 on my desk which works just fine, haven't really taken note of the speeds it achieves but it certainly charges lol
I just received mine yesterday and it is AMAZING. If anything I could swear its even FASTER than the 65 watt charger that comes with the phone. Today I was going to top it off while I did my morning ablutions. I came back and It had gone from 58% to 100 in barely 20 mins, more like 15 mins. From what Ive read the phone battery stays cooler with this unit as well.

Pro tip.. you can use the 30w wireless charger from the OnePlus 8 pro and get the same charging speeds! My OnePlus 9 pro charged from 0% to 100% in 43 minutes with the warp 30 wireless...

Aw damn, I bought the new charger. But now I have a fast charger in my bedroom and living room. Funnily enough, the 30w charger refuses to charge any of my samsung phones while the new 50w does. It doesn't charge my daughter's iphone either. But I could care less about anything apple and just tell her to get a real phone all the time. Whoa, that went off topic quickly.

Not just the speed charging the 9 Pro, but the versatility at charging other devices as fast as they will allow as well. Same for the brick, charges my S21 Ultra at it's max speed also. Very nice this time around the chargers are useful for more than just OnePlus devices. (I wish it came in black also).
I own a Oneplus 8 Pro and today I ordered the oneplus 50w wireless charger. I wanted to know if my 30w warp charger adapter would be able to power this unit

Works fine with poetic guardian case
Works great with the Unicorn Beatle case as well.
Works with any case I've had, even the Damascus dbrand skinned Grip case
Mine is on the way... to me.
Now i charge with 8 Pro 30w wireless charger. Is stupid fast. I have 42% battery. I left the phone on charger for around 15 min. almost 100%.
The 50w one must be faster. With cooler too.
