S8/S8 Plus Wireless Fast Charger - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories

I see Amazon UK are taking pre orders for the new wireless charger in both black and brown.
I have never used a wireless charger before are they just a gimmick or are the useful?
Anyone thinking of getting one?

TBH, you can't go wrong with the Motorola charger. It's solid, name brand, and quick charges. (plus it's roughly 4.85 on amazon) The problem with ebay is fakes... for something like this.
Griffin 2A usb charger (charger only) use with a good microusb cable and you will never buy anything else again...
This thing charges so fast its crazy. And it's great quality, though expensive...
Be careful online.. Griffin sells their throw aways for super cheap in package so they look like retail products... (the upc might be 1 off or something)

I got 2 Motorola car charges I got off of Amazon over a year ago. Never had a problem work really well with at least a dozen of phones of people who have been in my car and it charges really fast even on the GS3.

The one on amazon is real, the one you posted looks fake. The original motorola pushes out 950mA. Your mileage may very with a fake. Plus, it's half the price on amazon. Why wouldn't you be able to use amazon over ebay?

$19 Qi Charger That Works Great!

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00E9MUNWU/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I ordered one to test it out and I love it. I already ordered another one for the nightstand.
$19, no tax and free shipping. It took about 2 weeks to get to me but for the price I'm ok with that.
I'm not sure about charging time but it doesn't seem slow. It only comes with a usb cable so if you need a power plug for an outlet then you will need to supply your own.
I've only used it caseless so far as the cases I ordered are taking their sweet time coming in.
I didn't think I would like wireless charging that much but ... yeah, I like it alot.
I think its better to add a few bucks and get this: http://www.amazon.com/Okeler-Wireless-Charging-Charger-Samsung/dp/B00EXLZIF4/ref=pd_rhf_ee_p_d_7
much better looking
Round or rectangle, its just a personal preference.
I wouldn't mind a small super shallow one for my carholder.
Yea..or. You can buy the Nokia DT-900 Qi Plates from a known company with history for $25 shipped new in box on ebay all day long.
And unlike either of those it comes with both a AC Adapter and cable and does not ship from China.
Shhhh, don't tell anyone but they are all probably made in china.

This is where I got mine, he sold 17 of them new for $25 shipped.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=111213515011
I also did some searching and seems there are a bunch for $30 right now. If you check back ever few days you'll def be able to nab one for around $25 or maybe even less. There's a ton of them out there since they came free with Lumia purchases. I don't think I've seen any for 70 dollars, seems the highest is around 40.
here's the AT&T link, I bought 3 of these a month or so back. Deal still looks active.

it's 1 at 24.50
2 at 44.10
3 at 55.14
they give you 10% off each when you buy 2 and 25% off each when you buy 3.

Can confirm this one work great for a car dock mod
I just ordered the Nokia one from Amazon! I trust Amazon more than at&t for a few more dollars! My nexus 4 charging orb would cause burn in on my screen so I had to stop using that! For example when I load Facebook, u can clearly see it on the blue screen when its loading

I work for AT&T and the Nokia DT-900 is currently 50% off. It's not advertised and I didn't even know about it until I scanned it and saw it. Lucky me I get an added 40% discount. I'm not into wireless charging, but for only $15 I'll take it!
Getting back to the Lerway... I own one and it's a pretty decent charger. Not too finicky about positioning and appears to charge as fast as hardwired. It's actually a rubberized plastic which I didn't realize from the pictures, this compliments the N5 quite nicely.
But, if you can get a Nokia for 5 bucks more, don't be stupid, go for the Nokia.
I have two Nokia Qi chargers, one at work and one at home. They're great with the Nexus 5, no problems at all.
ONE WARNING THOUGH: The DT-900 use a proprietary charging cord. Not micro USB. Don't get the DT-900 for use in your car, it won't work!
They make a car charger, with a one piece cord that plugs into a car cigarette charger, but that is the CR-200 and will cost you more than the on-sale prices people have posted.
I have mentioned it few times now but the one in eBay is 10 dollars and change and works great . nice packaging too and ships fast . that's what I use every night.

Cheapest wireless charger?

Would anyone happen to know where the cheapest, compatible wireless charger is sold for the G3?
Bro if you buy cheap you can't get mad when it don't work good. It is never worth it to go cheap
I don't know if I would say that. Some people got a cheap wireless charger from AT&T that was fine but out of stock now. I'm not talking about the back cover I know AT&T's is different. I bought a LG Vest case from Korea for 20 and it was 60 in the US. Same exact case. It's kind of hit or miss though. I want to get wireless charger but only if I can find a deal on a good one. I think buying cheap batteries is different though. I want a slim case but I don't know what ones work with a wireless charger. I guess maybe I'll just get a bumper or something.
Depending on the item, I'll buy cheap such as chargers or cables. They've worked for me for X amount of years. If it breaks, I'll buy a new one and it will still be cheaper than buying a quality one that costs 4 times as much.
I just ordered this http://www.ebay.com/itm/22147408925...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
I see a lot of people and on YouTube using this. The Qi chargers are nothing special. Its all plastic and the internal is just a chip, with wire and coil for charging. You can even buy the internals on eBay and put it in to your own case if you're that creative.
I have Nexus Wireless Charging orb I can sell you
Qi-compatible wireless adapter with NFC
My adapter finally arrived! I used a sharp knife and sliced out the old one after I tested this one.
Chinese website that only took 2 weeks to deliver!
It works with my Nokia Wireless charger just fine. However, with the standard white, flat, Qi-compatible charger I got on Amazon for $8, it says "charging slowly" and to plug in to the usb port to charge faster.
I'm just glad I don't have to buy the LG-branded wireless charging station for $50+!

My Nokia DT910 charges fine with no slow charge warning, but randomly disconnects and then immediately starts charging again. Is it doing that for you?

Wow! $40.
I'd just get Qi charger for under $10.
Yep and plus I can only add it to my cart. Site says only pick up available, but none are in stock in nearby stores.
I've been using this charger at my office (it doubles as my N5 charger) and it works well. $9 from Amazon (though shipping took a couple weeks)....

For $40, you'd think they'd include a wall charger, but no... Dock and cable only. Sigh.

i used my N7 2012 charger in combination with the Moto360 charger and it didn't go to the circle charging screen. The battery was charging, but it didn't dock until I switched to the included power supply. Is it an amperage thing?

Sounds more like a cable thing. The N7 2012 charger is much higher amperage than the OEM 360 wall charger. The dock will only draw what it needs, so higher amp charger isn't an issue.

I bought a second watch for someone and they didn't want it. When I came home from returning the unwanted watch, I noticed that I had forgotten to put the charger back in the box. The store didn't notice it missing as well. Ended up getting a charger at no "charge."

Yes. I would totally agree if it wasn't for the store being a massive company and it wasn't a complete hassle to go back and return it.
I just ordered the Qi charger from Amazon for 9 shipped with Amazon prime.

original accessories from google?

I was wondering if it's possible to get the original accessories that come in the box from Google support or something? Got a pixel 3 xl for a good price but it came with none of those

TLDR: Only Googly things worth purchasing (on sale) are the stand and fabric case.
Congrats on the new phone. You can buy anything in the box on Google... but why? They are ALL overpriced and there are many quality USB-C charging products out there. Deals abound right now on equivalent stuff. I took my P3XL out of the box and just plugged it into my existing P2XL stuff. Everything is still in the P3XL box. One useful thing is the USB-A to USB-C dongle which I use for USB thumb drives, but you can get that anywhere. I did break down and buy a G Stand when they were on sale half-price on BF. No way would I pay $80 for this. Still kicking myself for paying $40 BUT it is fast charging wireless and more importantly lets me use the phone on my desk at the right angle and it doesn't move around. Solid piece of kit once you switch off EVERY other function but wireless charging. Oh, and I ordered a carbon fabric case because I loved that on my P2XL.
Careful of low quality USB type C cables. I find even the Anker ones I bought on Amazon don't charge my phone as fast as the Google ones after only using it for a month... (Used ampere to check charge speed) And if you buy some really crappy ones you can kill your phone. Don't skimp on cables or chargers... My friend asked me why his phone doesn't register inputs properly when he's charging and he had cheap cables (the phone was doing funky stuff while plugged in)
Something like this might be a good buy for you
