Tylt Vu Wireless Charging Stand

I wanted to share an interesting observation I made this evening. I have the S6 Edge with the Tylt Vu stand, and it works a heck of a lot better if I put the phone down into it in landscape.
Portrait has a REAL hard time getting a connection. Of course, if I take the case off, it doesn't matter. For now, I don't mind because I can see the night clock better.
UPDATE: Portrait will not work regardless of case vs none. If you are able to get it to get a connection, it cannot maintain it. As stated in post #7, I believe there is an alignment issue with the coils and the phone. I will be emailing Tylt to see what they have to say.

No pics = fail

I was gonna buy a Tylt, but the price was ridiculous, so I ordered one of these, shold be here tomorrow...less than 1/2 the price!

Maybe less than half in price, but less than half the charging voltage 5v versus 12v of the Tylt

they both put out 1 amp while charging, so there wont be much, if any difference in how long it takes them to charge a phone, especially if they are sitting on the charging stand for awhile, But hey, if it makes you feel better about overpaying by more than double, that's ok..

I'm not sure why pics are needed? To update, I realized that case, or no case, it's not going to work in portrait orientation. It does get a connection but cannot maintain it. I've updated my OP to reflect that.
Also, there is now at least one review of similar products on Amazon having the same issue. Some of the vendors are even updating their item descriptions saying not to use with the S6/Edge

While that is true, if you're just using it as a charger overnight then it shouldn't be much of an issue. The 3 coil could benefit there as well, as my suspicion is an alignment issue with the S6 and the Tylt, and other products based on its design.

Let me know how well it works, with and without a case if possible.

I have 2 tylt Vu wireless chargers and my 6 edge works fine in portrait with both. Maybe it's just your unit ??? Btw i also have the neo hybrid case on while wireless charging .

I can definitely agree with OP. I have two tylt vu chargers, tried it with both case and no case on the edge, and the chargers both exhibit weird behaviors when the phone is in portrait. The behaviors include:
Charger showing green light but phone does not show charging
S6 edge continuously disconnect and reconnects back to the wireless charging
No light and not charging on the S6 edge
I think the position of the wireless charging receiver on the edge must be in between the top and middle coils and is not getting a solid connection. It would also explain why having it landscape will give you a proper connection if it is able to solidly make a connection with bottom coil.
UPDATE: I did some testing with the charger I have at home and it seems that the case might be the real culprit. I cannot seem to replicate the weird behaviors when there is no case on the phone; it chargers just fine. I did take a video that shows the odd behavior when the S6 edge has a neo-hybrid case on, this one. youtube link

I have two Tylt chargers and my S6 Edge works great in portrait. I was lucky and got two Tylt chargers on clearance $30 each from T-Mobile a year ago. Have no issues charging with my clear plastic T-Mobile case. It's very thin though.
My Note 4 had issues wireless charging at times I would have to take it off then set it back down. I had the Samsung Qi back cover.

I have this case http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SV63WVE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Probably not the absolute thinnest case but it can't be too far off. If the charger cannot work properly even with a case as thin as this, then that, to me, is an issue. The fact that the "knockoff" versions of this product are starting to see reviews with similar issues should be considered. What I don't know is if the reviewer tested like you did...
Review: http://www.amazon.com/review/R30U94...etail-glance&nodeID=2335752011&store=wireless

Another vote for having two Tylt Vu's (apparently I'm not the only one who can't have just one!), and they both work fine without a case.... that being said, I ordered the Spigen Neo Hybrid CC in gunmetal as my first case I've ever had on any Galaxy device, EVER - this phone is just too damn expensive and thin not to have one this time - and I'll let you know in two days if it still works with that case on it!

S6e + Tylt + Spigen Neo Hybrid = No Bueno
I concur with OP. 5 tylt chargers around the house and my S6e with Spigen Neo Hybrid exhibits inconsistent wireless charging on portrait but no problem in landscape mode. Naked S6e charges with no problems in portrait.

This is my case that I have no issues wirless charging on my Tylt in portrait. The case is made by Samsung and I bought it at T-Mobile at cost $20 instead of $35. Limited protection but does cover the corners. S6 Edge is to damn sexy to hide in a case. I know it's better safe then sorry. Also if you register your phone at Samaung you can get 30% off and buy it from them.

That pretty unfortunate.
I happened to order this wireless charger/stand http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00S7IBDGW/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_y-5jvb18R9X7M and charging in Portrait with a case/without a case works perfectly.

That's interesting because that's the same unit that the one review I saw they had problems. Also, I don't know how new this is or when you bought it, but it says in the item description that this is not for the S6 or S6 Edge, and that there will be a new version that is compatible.
The reviewer doesn't say whether it's the S6 or S6 Edge, however I am seeing on other branded products, the item descriptions are being updated with a warning not to buy for the S6.
I can't make heads or tails of it. I have other receivers that work just fine. Those include a Choetech Stadium, MobilePal battery pack with Qi charging, a Koolpad, and iOttie EasyFlex Wireless Charging Car Dock...

As an update to my comment about my S6E working just fine in the Tylt Vu, it still does, but damn that thing took over 6 hours to charge last night and when I picked it up this morning, it was MUCH hotter than my S5 ever was on the Tylt Vu with wireless charging cover..... I'll have to look how long it took my S5 to charge over night, I got my S6E down to around 15% and charged it from there - and then this morning when I was waking up, it made a charging connection sound, so I went to look at it to see if it had the same issues a few of you had, expecting to get up and see it half-dead, and it was at 100%.... so it was charging all night, no disconnections, just took a loooooooong time and made a looooooot of heat, which can't be good for it!

Interesting I didn't even see that in the description before i bought it. But i can confirm this version works just fine with my Edge . And for the time being I am using the Spigen Air Cushion hybrid case and it still charges. It is a Qi enabled charger, I don't see why it would not be for a Qi device such as S6/Edge.

The issue is alignment between the coil(s) and the receiver. Are you carefully about how you put your phone onto it.or do you just kind.of drop it in there without giving it any thought?

Wireless car charging setup

I wanted a wireless charging setup for my Samsung S6 edge, and this is what I came up with using the following parts.
The clamps to hold phone work perfect for holding the wireless pad, and the phone snaps in and out easily.

I use this for mine;

I don't like using sticky pads, and I didn't want it on my dashboard, out of reach.
And it's $100

Question:
WHile using GPS navigation with wireless charging, how fast goes the battery charge? Or does it charge at all or discharge instead?

That looks pretty neat. Do you have any pics to share of how it works with the cup holder? My only concern about that set up is that my cup holder is right next to me, and I'm not sure how ackward the reach woud be considering the phone might be almost too close...if that makes any sense.

While using waze and playing music, it charges. Not fast, but it does charge. I'll get some more pictures.

Nice ingenuity! Thanks for sharing! I was considering picking one of these up to see if they would work:

Another pic as promised.

I'm planning to combine a Qi charging pad with my Neutron S magnetic mount.. hopefully it works, haven't tested it.
Here's the Neutron S: http://www.bungajungle.com/collections/all/products/neutron-s?variant=994256488
I was going to get the Anker Qi charging pad especially because its 6mm, very close to the Neutron S's 6.35mm height. Add on some double sided tape and it'll probably sit right up against the back of the phone when mounted.
Sadly, reviews say the Anker Qi pad doesnt work with reliably with our phones for some damn reason o_o

i bought this one :
Qifull
but it constantly disconnected and reconnected to the point of making it useless and i tried all kinds of things but no chance it can be reliable. i went looking for a better solution but REALLY liked everything about it other than charging issue.
sadly there were a few more like CHOE Upgraded Qi and the Qi-infinity but if you look closely they are the same thing from different sellers.
i havent found a simple purchase option yet and looking.
the problem seems to be the placement of the 3 coils in relation to where the phone sits on the charging pad.
i do own this CHOE Stadium and it works great and have looked at other standard docks to see how i could incorporate into something but nothing has met my qualifications yet.

All I know is that the setup I posted works flawlessly even with a case.

in my Ram Truck that doesnt work well for me though and a suction cup holder and i had the perfect setup with my Note 3 with this iBolt Dock
i looked at ways to add a qi pad inside it but not going to work with that one.
i will probably end up buying items and building something and your cup holder idea is nice just not for me.

CHOETECH Stadium Qi Wireless Charger and Edge Cases

Hey everyone, not sure if people are still on the fence with some of the Wireless charging pads out there but, here's a solid solution.
ChoeTech Qi Charger
I had purchased a couple of the Durcell Powermats and only 1 of my 3 cases would charge with it. So, I decided to try another one.
All 3 are working flawlessly ....
Obliq Slim
Spigen Ultra Thin
Verus Card Slot Case (This is the one I really wanted it to work with).
Obliq case poly bumper
Some may not be as pumped as myself, but it's nice to see a decently priced pad work so well. Figured I'd share what I found out, since it might help others considering their options.

I got the same thing for my diy car mount and it works awesome. 3 coil is the only way to go in my books.

Thanks OP! Really appreciate that. Just ordered myself.

Did it work with the slot case while cards where inside? I bought two of the disappointing PowerMat chargers and it's annoying to have to remove it and then place it just perfectly on the charger. Defeats the entire purpose of wireless charging for me, convenience.

I can confirm it charges with two cards in the slot (Debit card and Driver's license). Really loving this wireless charger.

Those durcell mats really let me down... I should have known better with them being so cheap. I hated taking my case off to charge the phone.

Yeah my duracell powermat has a hard time charging through all but my thinnest case. And even then I have to reposition the phone precisely for it to work at all. I got a couple of those CHOE Qi chargers and they work through all the cases I've tried so far.

Just received mine and it works flawlessly! I've got 3 cards in my slider case and it still charges without issue. Haven't had to mess around with placement of my phone either, super convenient. Thanks for sharing!

I have a Ravpower wireless charger/stands. These are also 3 coil chargers as well.
http://www.amazon.com/RAVPower-RP-W..._1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1429553662&sr=1-1
The real pain in the ass is that the Speck Candyshell Grip case is spotty to charge on it. It stops charging at random intervals and then picks up and charges again. If the case if off, I get no interruptions when I wirelessly charge.
http://www.amazon.com/Speck-Product..._1_2?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1429553865&sr=1-2
Be careful if you get this Candyshell grip case. Its a great case, but the issues with wireless charging suck.

yup, 3 coils is the way to go hands down. stronger charging and also you can place anywhere, no need to fiddle around on where to place the device which was annoying on the Duracell mat.

Also having issues with the Duracell one not going through the case.. will pick up one of these!

I can check when I get home from work, but googled it and it's 10.6mm (0.42 inches). According to Choetech

I know I have mentioned these previously in this thread, but I have a pair of these and they are nice if you want to have a stand.
http://www.amazon.com/RAVPower-RP-W..._1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1429709797&sr=1-1
There is a bit of a price premium, but I like having my phone standing up facing me here at work and at home. They also convert to laying down as well if you would like. The triple coil works wonders as well. I highly recommend them.

[Review]CHOETECH Iron Stand Qi Wireless Charger

So a few nights ago, I got a message from someone with CHOETECH. They'd seen that I had posted here about my Stadium Qi charger and asked if I'd be willing to try out the new Iron Stand charger. Of course I said yes - their timing couldn't have been better as I was planning on buying a stand charger soon. I only had the one and was getting tired of bringing it back and forth between work and home (not that it was a pain, but if I'd forget it I'd be grumpy ).
Packaging
The packaging was quite nice. I don't recall what the Stadium packaging was like, but a lot of stuff from China doesn't even come in a box. Quality packaging left an immediate positive initial impression.
Contents
The box contained the Iron Stand charger, a 5V 2A power adapter, USB cable, a "User Manual", and a card with instructions what to do if you were either happy (post a review, recommend, etc) or unhappy (contact their customer service) with the product.
Build Quality
First impressions - this thing is really nice. My wife, very non-tech type, even comment on how nice it looks. The stand is made of what appears to be some sort of aluminium alloy. The charging plate is in the middle and very polished (it's quite reflective). On one side is the power port and 4 blue indicator LEDs. The LED on the Stadium is very bright, but it's more subtle here on the Iron Stand. On the bottom of the stand is soft rubber that gives it a really good grip so that it doesn't slide around. Also, the USB cable that it comes with seems to be pretty high quality, on par with the Anker cables I've got. Overall, I'm pretty impressed with the quality of this charger.
Capability
Using my S6 Edge with a Ringke Fusion cover, positioning the device so that it gets a charge is very simple - it picks it up right away, vertical or horizontal. However, I found that it seems to get a faster charge when horizontal. When horizontal I get a charge on par with the Stadium charger, but it's a tad slower when vertical. Must just be something with the placement of the coils not being quite right for the S6. Aside from that, it does work well. I've had no issues with it overheating. Every once in a while the screen will kick on when fully charged, but I think this is probably a result of something draining my battery just enough to get it below 100%. Seems about the same as the Stadium on that front.
TL;DR - The Iron Stand is a really good choice for a stand Qi charger. Build quality is great, charging is on par with what you should expect from a Qi charger.

I wonder that just before reading this post, I watched a video of the same wireless charger charging the Note 5! But i don;t think the Smartphone he used in that video is Note 5! Any idea if it is compatible with Note 5 or not? Meanwhile, here is that video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCMObdATmI0

The charger is nicely built for strong usage. Choetech built it with good quality materials. Iron stand used as charging pad is of great quality and full functional to place the mobile devices either in portrait or landscape mode. The good thing about that stand is you can watch videos while the phone is in charging. No more clumsy wire that connects your mobile and charger. LED lighting shows the status of your wireless charging. Thanks for great post.

I hadn't seen that video. You are right though, that's not the Note 5 - my guess is that it is the S6 Edge+. With my regular S6 Edge, there's still a bit of room on either side of the stand (3 or 4 mm). I looked at the Note 5 just the other day at a Sprint store and it isn't that much bigger than an S6, so my guess is that it will be physically fine on this charger. However, this is a normal Qi charger putting out a max of just 1A of 5V current. The Note 5 and S6 Edge+ have some sort of enhanced Qi capabilities that Samsung is touting as Wireless Fast Charging that requires one of the fast charging adapters. This charger doesn't support that.

I received a sample of this charger as well, and wanted to comment on it.
I had previously been using a Itian wireless charger and was very happy with how it worked on both my S6 Edge, and my Nexus 6.
The CHOETECH iron stand came in a nice package, and the coils on the stand were protected in shipping bu clear film.
Once out of the package, I noticed that the vertical stand angle was better than my Itian model, allowing my phones to stand up even more vertically, which is something I like. With my phones turned on its side, the Itian worked just fine on both my S6 Edge and my Nexus, but CHOETECH was a little picky about how i positioned my Nexus when turned sideways; eventually, I found a good spot for it, and it worked just fine on both phones.
The only that I didnt like when comparing the 2 brands, was that the CHOETECH charger charges slower than the Itian does, but eventually it does charge both of my phones 100%.
Either charger would make a nice addition to your charging inventory, and I will say the CHOETECH charger is a bit more attractive, if you prefer an "industrial" look.
Either way, both of these units work well, so the choice is yours!

CHOETECH claims to use premium quality components in the manufacturing of Standing Wireless Charger and the products. CHOETECH is certified with FCC, CE and ROHS. They also offers 18 months warranty on qi charger against all manufacturing defects with easy to reach customer services. I have read many positive reviews about CHOETECH Iron Stand Qi Wireless Charger. I am happy with its performance.

It looks a nice charging stand to charge my phone while I am enjoying a video. Hey OP, the iron construction both looks premium and feels solid, but is it heat-resistant? How do you feel like it?

CHOE Circle Qi Wireless Charger (Review)

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013AB620C?redirect=true&ref_=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0
Bottom line, the TL;DR version, I really like this charger. Of the three I now own, it's now definitely my favorite. It's large enough to make aligning your device simple and effortless (this is the only wireless charger I have where I don't feel like I need to double check to make sure that my Nexus 7 is sitting on it correctly) and small enough to not take up much space on a surface or in a bag or pocket. With the light around the edge of the charger, it's easy to see whether or not your phone is actually charging, whereas on other chargers, the indicator light is usually obscured by whatever device is sitting on top of it charging.
And don't worry about the light being a nuisance in a dark rook — one of the attached photos (the one where you can't see anything but the charging LED of my phone) was taken of the the charger charging a phone with the camera pointed directly at the light. As you can see, it won't bother you at night. One more thing, the light doesn't go around the entire circle of the charger. It only lights up about a third of it.
If you're looking for the type of charger that you can just set your phone on that isn't a dock, I'd consider this one.
Now on to the rest of my review...
When I was offered a chance to try this wireless charger, I had very low expectations. I currently own two other wireless chargers. One is actually another CHOETECH brand charger which I've been very content with (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JA7HNZO?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00) and the other is the PowerBot "puck" wireless charger which I am not very fond of at all (http://www.amazon.com/PowerBot®-PB1...373&sr=8-2&keywords=powerbot+wireless+charger). My initial expectations were based on the latter since it is a similar shape (round) to this circle CHOETECH charger.
My biggest complaint with the PowerBot charger was that the size and shape of it just made it less ideal for charging a large phone or tablet. Basically, attempting to tap your screen while it was charging meant making your phone wobble everywhere and, since the charger is so small in comparison, it's impossible to see the indicator light so that you know the phone or tablet is on the right spot and charging. I figured these issues would just be inherent with round chargers, but that was not the case with this CHOE circle charger. It turns out I really like this charger, but I wish I could have got the black model instead.
The ring around the edge of the charger is rubbery to provide grip. For my leather back G4, that did nothing since the phone doesn't lay flat, however my Nexus 7 is held firmly in place so I don't have to worry about it sliding around. It comes with a decent sized USB cable (off the top of my head,I think it's two or three feet). The indicator light is well lit in light, more than enough to let you know it's working, and then it's basically not there in the dark.
There's really not much more to say. It's a great charger and I think $20 for it isn't bad at all.
5/5 if I had to rate it.
All photos taken with my G4. Models pictured are my G3 and Nexus 7.

Thanks and good to see your review here. May I know where did you get your cover case for your G4?
I was checking the wireless charging cover case and the charging pad.

I would like to anwser you, this wireless charger works great.
I'm useing anther item more than two years.

I had this circle Qi charger for my girlfriend. Mini size is perfect for girls.

Wireless charging would be so cool and convenient. I have three all over the house and hardly ever use my wired charger now. I also have this Choetech circle qi wireless charger that supports fast charging for my Note 5. But it would be great if it was a dock instead a pad.

Looking so cool!

I feel like I need to review this as well, because I have so many wireless charging pad and I had to compare them with this. and it was an amazing experience.
Now, my co-worker is rocking with her S6 with the thick case, my generic charging pad couldn't even detect the phone to charge where as this Choetech had no problem charging through the thick case.
the case is about 5mm thick on the bottom, thats about 0.2 inches, still charges, nice!
also charges my moto 360 without any problems, guess what though! it charges my moto 360 upside down too!! that was amazing. so Choetech must have considered phones with thick cases that are having hard time wireless charging. I'll definitely put this company in my shopping list for my future mobile devices accessories from now on. they have earned my business.
it outputs to about 5w when charging, so it will take about 3 hour'ish to top off your phones, and about 45 minutes for your smart watches.
please see photos below.

Picked up this charger based on this thread and really like it so far. I was worried about the brightness of the light ring for when I sleep but it is extremely dim, to the point that it doesn't add any light to the room.
I'm using the stock charger with it and have pulled the wireless&nfc sticker from an ankway circle case (I officially must hate circle cases) and installed that to my original plastic back cover. I also have the cruiserlite bugdroid case on the phone and it still works great. I took a 3.5 hour nap and the phone was 100% charged from 22% when I woke up. I'm sure it hit 100% before I woke up.
