Belkin Wireless Charging Pad 10W, Black

I have been using this for a couple of weeks now. It works well with a Samsung S21. It says it's fast wireless charging on the phone, even though the charger is only 10W, but not the super fast charging the phone can also do.Pretty good compromise for the price difference between this and the higher wattage chargers, for what I was looking for. Handy to have it in the hallway to leave the phone on instead of the table. Also works well with the Samsung wireless earbuds charging case.

A Very Welcome Speed Charge Speed Improvement

This is an improvement in both speed and design over my current BOOST UP Special Edition model of about two years.I'll start with how much smaller the power adapter is on this--about one-third the size. That was very welcome because it takes up less room in the power strip in which is it plugged. While missing the chrome band around the circumference, it's still an attractive unit that would look well on most surfaces.Most people would say the improved charge speeds alone are worth it. I'd estimate my iPhone X charges between 25 and 33% faster over the BOOST UP Special Edition. It's great to use when I don't need a fast charge. If I do need a fast charge, I use my Belkin BOOST CHARGE 27W USB-C PD Wall Charger (using a Lightening connector) to charge my phone in ... MoreThis is an improvement in both speed and design over my current BOOST UP Special Edition model of about two years.I'll start with how much smaller the power adapter is on this--about one-third the size.

One could say I'm a Belkin fan and have been for 20+ years!

Amazing Modern Looking Desktop Wireless Charger

This is an amazing modern looking desktop/counter top wireless charger. It comes in frustration free packaging and a small box. It is very clean looking and has a nice matte feel. A compliment to the clean looking design is the embossed logo in the center. They have held-back from adding stickers or labels to the face, thus enhancing the clean look. This charger has anti-slip pads on the top and bottom that grips well to the phone and keeps it in place. I have an Iphone X in a UAG case. I had to place the phone directly over the center of the charger for it to connect/register it was charging. This charged faster than my other Qi chargers. Please note, the power adapter is in a separate compartment at the bottom of the box. If you just open the top of the box and ... MoreThis is an amazing modern looking desktop/counter top wireless charger. It comes in frustration free packaging and a small box.

I would recommend this stylish charger.

Convenience of wireless combined with reliability

The Belkin Wireless Charging Pad 10W is convenient because of its size and functionality. The pad’s profile is sleek and because it’s flat and barely noticeable wherever it’s placed, it’s perfect for clogged desks. The pad has an inner ring that serves as a guideline for the iPhone placement. It does not matter where or how the iPhone is placed on the pad as long as the Apple logo of the phone is touching the ring. The phone will charge – it does not matter whether the iPhone is placed pointing to or perpendicular to the power cable. I tested the charger with three different iPhones: mine is an iPhone XS with a soft plastic cover, my wife’s iPhone XR with an Otter cover, and my daughter’s iPhone XI also with a soft plastic cover– the charger behaved exactly the same ... MoreThe Belkin Wireless Charging Pad 10W is convenient because of its size and functionality.

I definitely recommend this charger to anybody who wants the convenience of wireless charging combined with reliability and space saving.

Great little charger

My favorite wireless charger is my Belkin Boost 3-in-1 that charges my phone and Apple watch and is in an upright position so I can view my phone from a distance. These flat chargers are nice to have around the house for extra charging options. I use them to charge my phone near the couch, or my air pods. This one is small and lightweight. It would be a very a good one to have for travel, and I will bring it on my upcoming vacation. I used it to charge my iPhone XS Max, and the phone was at 36%, and in less than an hour it was at 73%. I charged it with a thin plastic case on it. I tried moving the phone around to see how easy it was to "make contact", and charge. You do need to put the middle of the phone, in the middle of the charger, or it won't charge. With that ... MoreMy favorite wireless charger is my Belkin Boost 3-in-1 that charges my phone and Apple watch and is in an upright position so I can view my phone from a distance.

You do need to put the middle of the phone, in the middle of the charger, or it won't charge. With that being said, my only complaint is the only way you know if it made contact, is a tiny little light on the side/front of the charger. It's not easy to see, and I feel like I have to really look for it to make sure it's charging. I wish it lit up on top, or a larger area so I wouldn't have to second guess that it's charging.

Great way to avoid battery anxiety.

If you have an iPhone that supports wireless charging, then this is a must have device. I like to keep this on my nightstand so I can simply place my phone on it before I go to bed. If I forget, then I can put it on the wireless charging station while I get ready for the day. The quick charge feature makes sure I have enough to get through the without any battery anxiety. Even better is that includes everything that you need. The charging station, a cable, and a wall charger.Another great place to have one of these would at my desk. This way, I don't need to constantly plug and unplug your phone to charge it. Just put it on the charging station when I need power and grab it when I get up. It's also great because I can charge my AirPods case on it.Definitely the ... MoreIf you have an iPhone that supports wireless charging, then this is a must have device.

Just doesn't work, no matter what I've tried.

This charger is dog water. Bought it because my phone no longer charges normally. No matter what I plug it into (outlet) it always does the same thing. White light blinks a few times and does nothing by way of charging or continuously blinks white while still doing nothing. And its not the phone, I've tried multiple. First experience with this product and it sucks. In other words "I wish I could give you a 0, but that's not possible. So I give you, a 1."

Simplistic but Future-Proof

I own the BOOST↑UP™ Wireless Charging Pad 7.5W charger so when I received the newer BOOST↑CHARGE™ 10W Wireless Charging Pad + QC 3.0 Wall Charger + Cable, it all seemed familiar but more refined. The new charger is more compact which is something I think most buyers will like as it takes up less real estate on your nightstand, desk, etc.I received the white model which is very simplistic and I think will go with any decor. One thing I noticed on the newer model vs my old one is that the charging indicating light is now located on the front of the charger instead of the top. This move was necessary due to the smaller form factor but if you place your phone perpendicular to the light, it’s hard to see the status of the light. This issue can be easily fixed by ... MoreI own the BOOST↑UP™ Wireless Charging Pad 7.5W charger so when I received the newer BOOST↑CHARGE™ 10W Wireless Charging Pad + QC 3.0 Wall Charger + Cable, it all seemed familiar but more refined.

This move was necessary due to the smaller form factor but if you place your phone perpendicular to the light, it’s hard to see the status of the light. This issue can be easily fixed by positioning your phone to lay horizontally.With that said, I love that this charger is 10W vs the 7.5W my old charger was limited to. Although I have an iPhone and wireless charging is currently limited to 7.5W by Apple, most other phones allow 10W for wireless charging. This is something that I’m sure Apple has in the pipeline and when they do make that switch, a new charger will not be needed. All-in-all, I wanted to give this charger 5 Stars but I couldn’t for one reason alone: lack of USB-C port.The charger comes with a power supply and cable, which is great, but the cable has a micro USB connector and with the industry moving towards USB-C, I would have really liked to see Belkin use that standard so consumers don’t have to have to search for a cable if it needs to be replaced.

Very well built.

I want to start saying I love this charging Pad. It just very easy to use. Simple as placing phone on pad and not fumbling with wires. That’s a common feature of any wireless charging pad/station. What’s not common is the speed of charge with this pad compared to others. Although I didn’t like the look of the foam strips that line the top edge they definitely keep your phone in place. Even when tested on an incline. Haven’t tried in the car but would imagine it would stay in place unless your driving real aggressive or have a sudden stop. Only drawback which is all too common with most wall adapters is the extent the plug and wires extend from wall. Makes it very hard to plug into an outlet that’s behind a piece of furniture. I would like to see an adapter where the ... MoreI want to start saying I love this charging Pad. It just very easy to use. Simple as placing phone on pad and not fumbling with wires.

very disappointed

I ended up having to buy a wireless charger for my phone, so I bought this one and the apple magsafe charger. I ended up only using this one for 4 days and had a horrible experience. It would take hours to charge my phone and it would cause my phone to overheat very quickly. I did not experience the same issues with the apple charger. There is also a safety concern that I would like to report about this charger as well. I have used belkin in the past, but this one was definitely a very disappointing experience. I am returning it as soon as I get a chance.
