Belkin BoostCharge 10W Dual Wireless Charging Pads White

This product randomly stops charging. There are just too many factors, I think, that may mean you cannot be certain it will do the job.Essentially: it’s much worse than using a cord but better than nothing if like me the charging port/lightning port on your phone is worn and you HAVE to use wireless chargin.Things to know:- only works with cases <3mm thick officially. But in my experience you always have to remove your case. So consider whether you can be bothered doing that every time.- it’s finicky. Does not actually work reliably even if you take the case off as another factor is temperature. If your phone hears up too much it will stop charging.I would not buy this product again.

Disappointing

I was excited when I stumbled upon this charger at the store. I had been looking for a dual charger to use with my work phone and personal phone. This would fit the bill perfectly and eliminate a small portion of a rats nest of cords on my desk. Unfortunately, it does not do the one this it was hired to do. It connects fine and will show that it is charging both devices. However, within minutes, it will stop charging one side or the other. I usually charge my phones at night so I will wake up to start the day with a fresh and fully charged device. Unfortunately, more often than not, I end up with partially charged devices and have to find a charger through the day. This lack of reliability is not what I have come to expect from Belkin.

Does not function to the Belkin reputation.

Pro: Good Design. Dual charge. Simple.Con: the charge point is narrow on each pad. It eliminates the drop factor of 'drop pad' charging. I bought it and after attempting 10 times. only 1 of 10 full charged. When it connects, wirelessly qi charging, the charge does not continue beyond 4 minutes.Disappointing for the Belkin brand.Internal schematic needs work....

Does what it promises but could be better

PROS● Wireless charging - this is my first wireless charging pad and the convenience is certainly nice;● Two spots - the more the merrier, though it might be limited to phones only which might limit you to placing this in a spot where you can share with others.CONS● Wall wart - it's bulky, it cannot sit flush behind furniture, and extends to the left of the prongs which takes up space in my particular surge protector;● Device compatibility - note sure if it specified anywhere what devices it is compatible with. I keep this on my nightstand and place my iPhone and AirPods Pro—the phone has no problems but the AirPods occasionally trigger an amber light and there's nothing in the manual to indicate what this means. The AirPods still fully charge so it's ... MorePROS● Wireless charging - this is my first wireless charging pad and the convenience is certainly nice;● Two spots - the more the merrier, though it might be limited to phones only which might limit you to placing this in a spot where you can share with others.CONS● Wall wart - it's bulky, it cannot sit flush behind furniture, and extends to the left of the prongs which takes up space in my particular surge protector;● Device compatibility - note sure if it specified anywhere what devices it is compatible with.

The AirPods still fully charge so it's primarily a nuisance but there is a possibility they don't specifically support the AirPods.● Slight hum - this is my first charging pad so maybe they all have a hum to them. Regardless, the sound can be heard in the quiet of the night.** I'm a member of the Belkin Fans First program and received this item for free in exchange for an honest review.

Great product for those with multiple Qi devices

Received this charging pad about a month ago and I've been very happy with it. I've had no issues with it and it has worked with all Qi based devices I have. I've found it to be a perfect bedside device - sitting on my nightstand - since I can easily charge my phone at night as well as my AirPods.Haven't done any traveling (thanks Covid) but this will definitely find its way into my bag next time I do. For me this sort of device is perfect for travel since it's compact and can charge 2 devices at once.The charging pads are capable of 10w power deliver to devices however this is limited to 7.5w with iPhones. However this seems to be a limitation which Apple has imposed and isn't due to the product. Perhaps a future model could support 10w+ power delivery by ... MoreReceived this charging pad about a month ago and I've been very happy with it.

Perhaps a future model could support 10w+ power delivery by incorporating MagSafe now that Apple has reintroduced it.The quality of the product is good though I do wish it were a little heavier. Mainly because it would give it a better 'feel' but there is nothing wrong with it as is. Maybe this is just personal preference.The price is definitely right for what you get since the power cable (brick) is included. I've purchased a few Qi based chargers over the last couple years and many of them don't come with brick. Or if they do the price effectively doubles.All in all it's a very solid product which I've been pleased with. So much so that I'm looking at purchasing a 2nd one for my wife to use

It charges, but not fast

First time I used it, I set my iphone 13 mini and and Galaxy s7 Edge. The galaxy charged relatively fast, but slower than when I use a cable. The iphone did not charge completly after 3 hours charging. So, I tough, it might be I charged two phones at the same time and also the iphone had a case. so, the second time I only charged the iphone 13 mini and removed the case. It has been over 3 hours and the phone charged from 22% to 85%, this is a very slow charge. Not sure if I will use to charge my iphone anymore, and if I could return it, I would.

It did not live up to the expectations.

I recently bought the this charger too charge my iPhone and Airpods pro whilst I work. After hearing great reviews about Belkin all the way from Belgium (I am in South Africa), I though lets give it a shot. Unfortunately it does not work as one thinks it will. It constantly disconnects when trying to charge the Airpods with a iPhone. It seems to work fine when you only have one or the other charging. The Airpods will charge for about 15 - 20 minutes before it starts disconnecting or show the orange light on the charge pad. For the price point and consumer confidence it does not seem to stack up. Unless there is some fix for this I would avoid buying this particular charger.

Perfect for multiple devices with one minor thing

The Dual wireless charging pad is a great addition to our home! While my wife and I both have separate wireless charging stands on our nightstand, this one is in our kitchen to provide charging during dinner or on late afternoons to make sure we have enough juice to get to the end of the day and we don’t have to fight for who gets to charge their phone because we can charge them both at the same time!It’s also helpful after a run to put the AirPods into their case and charge them without needing to go upstairs.The actual charging surface is low profile and doesn’t take up much room. If you were doing a remodel to you kitchen I would try to get this into a drawer with an outlet!The one thing I don’t like it the large wall plug. It ruins the sleek slim profile ... MoreThe Dual wireless charging pad is a great addition to our home!

It ruins the sleek slim profile of the charging pad by being this large plastic piece plugged in. I get the feeling that the designers of this SAE it as sitting on a nightstand and that the wall plug would not be visible. I get that the power to rapid charge 2 devices probably required a bigger plug but it’s just so big and ugly.Overall it’s a great product, I just wish the plug was smaller. And if you are buying this for a nightstand or drawer where the plug is hidden then look no further, this is what you need to buy!

This charger solved my charging issues

I was very excited when I found this this charger. After all my searching for a wireless charger that can do multiple phones I found this charger to meet my initial needs. Once I got the charger out of the box and plugged it in I found that it exceed my requirements. I was looking for a dual charger since it seems like my wife and I are always fighting over the the single puck charger when we come home. No more arguments over who has more charge.A few things stood out to me that sweetened the deal beside the obvious duel charging. When I removed it from the box I instantly notice the build quality. The charge base feels very solid and well constructed and I love the rubber grips on the underside which grip nicely to my countertop so it stays put. Another highlight ... MoreI was very excited when I found this this charger. After all my searching for a wireless charger that can do multiple phones I found this charger to meet my initial needs.

The charge base feels very solid and well constructed and I love the rubber grips on the underside which grip nicely to my countertop so it stays put. Another highlight for me was the simple fact it comes with an actual plug and not a USB A to micro USB or USB C fitting so I don’t have to provide yet another wall plug-in for a devise. To me it makes the charger feel more polished and complete. It’s all about the details. These are my favorite reasons for loving this charger, first the fact that when the phone is charging you get a green notification light on the charger saying it’s charging. I know your phone will tell you too but this is a welcome feature that I didn’t have before. The best feature is the rubber rings on the top of charge deck that not only tell you exactly where to place your phone it actually grips the phone or case and prevents accidental movement or slipping. That was a problem with my wife's phone case since it’s a hard plastic case. All my little issues solved.

Unreliable - keeps erroring

Like a lot of others I’m unimpressed with this product. Got it for Xmas with some apple AirPods to charge my iPhone 12 mini. First night the light kept switching from white to orange and I couldn’t figure out what it meant but I thought it was ok because the AirPods light shows orange when it needs charging - phone flat next morning.Second night it kept changing from white to no light to white and phone charged ok.Third night it was white when it out it on but next morning light was orange and phone flat - so I started reading the reviews to figure out what I was doing wrongFourth night I made sure I had it all lined up and positioned correctly, got a white light and it stayed that way for a bit but next morning it was orange again and phone on 50%Final try ... MoreLike a lot of others I’m unimpressed with this product.
