Do these still allow wireless charging? I am a total wireless charging user and am looking for something, preferably magnetic that still allows wireless charging.

I got this one and i love it so far. Wireless charging, automatic grab system and some leds. Its great and not expensive. Good luck!

I use this one but you'll have to charge with a cable or get a cradle that does wireless charging.

I bought this one and have it mounted on my dash currently. It works but getting the device in and out is a PITA. Does not have wireless charging so I use a car charger and cable and plug it into the AUX for the car with the splitter

Anyone find one with the cup holder
I bought car and driver and then supplemented the cradle with a headrest tablet mount
I got this one from Amazon. My wife suggested it and I was a little suspicious because it was significantly cheaper than the ones I saw recommended. Everytime I use it I'm reminded of why I married her . Doesn't feel cheap at all and keeps the phone VERY secure. I would 1000% recommend. The only thing I would add is that if you are going to mount it high on the dash or from a window, make sure your charger is long enough to reach it because it's not a wireless charging mount.

Hello,
Can someone confirm the measures on the new Nexus Wireless Charger. The information I have says 60 mm X 60 mm X 12.5 mm.
If thats true, it shouldn't be too hard to fit it inside this:
*Edit* Cant post links as a new member. Its the Brodit/ProClip for Nexus 5. */Edit*
Since I already have ProClip in my car, i figure it Could be an easy mod to get wireless charging in the car.
Anyone sees any difficulties?

I don't have mine with me, since it's in my car, but that sounds right. It's perfectly square and my N5 hangs over by several mm on each side, so width-wise, it should fit no problem. However, 12mm is an awful lot depth-wise. I know there's a gap with that mount, but some of that is due to the curve of the mount. Is there really 12+mm of gap? If so, then it should be fairly easy. You'd probably need to use some sort of adhesive, such as double-sided tape though, because those magnets on that charger are hella strong, and the charger is likely to come out when you remove the phone otherwise.
I use this charger in my car too, but it's just setting in the center console, so it's not mounted per se. Having the phone tucked away in the console (not visible) was fine for my purposes.
Thanks!
I got the technical drawing from Brodit, the gap is 65mm x 9.5mm. So I have to sand it down a little, but the cradle is going to be semi - permanent so I'll probably fix the charger and use Bondo to achieve a nice finish.

Hello,
I'm still in Thailand on vacation so nothing has happened yet, but I'm back at home soon.
But, since I posted this I figured : what's the difference between having a mount with a fixed Qi - charger instead of just buying the Brodit Active charger? You still have to have the cable all the way. And the way the Brodit Active charger mount works you just slide your phone in and it's charging.
Do you see any real advantages to having the Qi - mount solution?

Simplicity - the same reason I liked pogo-plug charging and use a Qi desk charger. I don't have to faff about fitting the phone into the charger - just drop it into place and it charges.

I received the Brodit now, and should receive the wireless charger soon. I have too much office work to do at the moment, so this will be a slow project (AS if you haven't noticed).
Did you come up with any ideas of a wireless easy-to-use solution?
Hello all. A friend of mine developed this new car dock for the Note 3, Galaxy S3, and Galaxy S4. I was lucky enough to get an advanced copy for my GS3 and found it to be the best dock I have ever used. I purchased one for my Note 3 and I did an unboxing. Please give it a look. Thanks

Sent from my SCH-I535 using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2
Sorry but the thread title is misleading. This isnt wireless charging, Looks like there are two pins on the docks that link to the case. As the case seems to use the wireless charging points on the phone it would mean I couldnt use the QI receiver Ive added. There's no mention of wireless changing on the actual site .
Also dont like the window mount as its way too short. I woudlnt be able to reach the phone or it would have to be stuck at the top of the windscreen. Never found a vent mount that doesnt sag yet either.
Think Ill stick to the Brodit mount, an adapter plate and a generic QI charger from amazon.

If you want a real wireless charging car mount that is qi, then these would be your best bets: http://smile.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb...as=aps&field-keywords=wireless charging mount
seems to have a lot of good reviews for most of them.
sure.. there are plenty of new wireless charging docks on kickstarter... if you want to wait however long it takes for the kickstarter to end + the time it takes to ship it as opposed to getting it by next week.........
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.

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?

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'm looking to buy a new car mount for my Galaxy S8+. Currently I have a 5 year old Brodit car mount that can be flexible in size, but the downside is that it's very shaky and loose.
I've been looking into the force touch charger car mount from Mophie because of the magnetic attachment, but it can only be used with their battery case and I don't need such a bulky case.
Can any of you recommend a good car mount?
I had an iBolt mPro I was using with my previous phone and it worked pretty solid. I just ordered the cPro (which has the USB-C connector built in) and I'll let you know how it works out.
I like the iottie holders since you can put it in and take it out with one hand. However i'm looking at this new one which also includes wireless charging while in the holder.

What do you mean by new? Seems to have come out in 2015 .. I'm also thinking about purchasing but seems old for a couple month old phone. Has anyone tried it? I'm hoping to be able to charge while the phone is in use. I have a 1.5 amp USB in the car which I hope is enough.

You can get a fast charger though I've noticed mine is sensitive to heat, doesn't take much for it to start slowing down charging (and warning you about it)
If you are looking for magnetic attachment, I suggest you look at xvida magnetic mounts. They offer a magnetized cover for S8 which would allow you to use their regular magnetic car docks as well as their line of qi car docks. I've tested their cases for S7 edge & charging desk stand and charging vent mount and they work great. Slight overheating with the car docks though, which can be expected but like I said, they have various standard magnetic car docks if that's a concern. No problems with overheating with their desk charger if you are on the market for a charging stand as well.
HANDS DOWN the best case/mount combo is made by Evutec. The cases themselves are precisely cut and essentially indestructible, all while containing a thin metal insert to work with their vent mount (make sure you get one that comes with the mount). Theyre relatively inexpensive on Amazon for the quality of case you get. They typically only make iPhone cases, but fortunately make them for the S8 and S8+.
The only caveat is that they don't play nice with wireless charging. I guess this could be a big downside for people that love the wireless charging, but I charge by a cable and don't own a wireless charge pad so its all good.

Does anyone have a car charger that works with fast charging? Or any recommendations on one that will work?
If you're looking for wireless I don't think there is anything out there right now. I bought the iottie like a day or 2 before news broke of the speed reduction. They say they are not going to go for certification. I have an email out to Anker's marketing team.

there are tons of type c options out there, personally I'm using the PD charger from choetech. anything rated for either 3a/5v or PD will fast charge. this is the one I'm using:

Yes - I use the Iottie One Touch Wireless Charger and it works GREAT for every phone I have used it - including my Pixel Xl 3
It is a little pricey but it is the most versatile charger I have found - and it is very user friendly - for taking the phone in our out of the phone holder/charger.
I also really like the Iottie Discs they include with the charger/holder - it allows you to mount the charger/phone mount on a curved dash without any problems at all - and in a pinch, they can be removed without messing up the dashboard. Great Charger - great Car Phone Mount. Really is the best one I have seen

tried out my choetech 10w wireless car charger. didn't mess with any measurement apps since I knew it wouldn't charge at 10w, but it did charge the phone with navigation running, screen on and music streaming over bt. since it's powered by type c you can always just plug the phone in directly if you need fast charging, but if it outpaces navigation that's generally good enough for me.

I've been using a 10w wireless charger in the car and it works with Google Maps navigation and Bluetooth audio running. It doesn't charge fast but not having to deal with magnets is nice. The only issue is that if you turn the car off the arms won't open at the push of the button. Not a big issue because the pho e is easy to take out.
If I do need to fast charge I just place the phone in the crawl then unplug the power from the car charging mount and straight into the phone. I'm using a USB C PD car cigarette lighter socket.

Does it still charge and maintain a charge while using the phone for streaming/nav, etc?
Oh, and will it work if my XL has a bulky case?
I have a question.
See it's nice to have wireless chargers in the car with arms to hold the phone. Even better to have a wireless charger with magnet.
Now I won't go in debate of over charging the phone but is there a wireless charger for a car that has a button to turn ON and OFF the charge? I don't care with or without a magnet to hold the phone.
I drive allot so I don't mind a slow charging the phone, I do care about leaving the phone on without over charging it. Plugging the cord in and out isn't fun.

it does charge while using navigation - and Wireless Android Auto - (which is a pretty big drain on the battery) I don't know about a "Bulky Case" I use the Ringke Crystal Fusion Case" which is fairly thick - and it works fine for me - but I haven't tried any other case, so I can't say for sure.
I love the Iotti One Touch - Wireless - it is an awesome holder/charger
Good Luck

That looks really interesting, but I would be worried about the motorized aspect during Canadian winters. Many years ago I had a motorized face plate for my car stereo and it would never work during the colder days.

Granted i will have to install or use two side tape to attach two metalic strips onto the phones case to get the magnet stick to it. Should be piece of cake or buy those metallic rings that sell and attach them.
there is also this one, but sadly it doesnt come with a suction cup (which i really need) I does come with a metal ring tho.
