As much as I love my 5x, it's not a patch on the Nexus5, for the single omission of QI wireless charging.
My Nexus5 never needed cables, a overnight charge in the wireless QI stand and it was good for the day. The 5x seems like a massive step backwards for me. Yes, it charges quickly, but I don't care, effectively I never needed to charge my Nexus5, just place it in the right location. I have gone from no charging to charging hassle.
Someone must be designing a QI case, they would be rich very quickly.
Even a USB-C QI pad to go in a regular bumper case.
I own an Air Dock 2.0 and loved it with my Nexus 5. I contacted them about a wireless charging option for the 5x and they eluded to them working on the issue. Below is a quote from them when asked about a Qi mod for the 5x
Hi Chuck,
We are currently in the testing/beta phase for those new phones. Stay tuned to our website for updates!
Thanks
But the Nexus 5x doesn't have wireless charging capabilities D:

That's why he's looking for a case with QI...
Surprised still nothing created in this area. I got my mom a iPhone 6 case that has a battery and Qi built in and its great. Hope someone makes one.

I'm surprised something hasn't been released yet; not looking to solder my phone, personally.

The Qi usb type c receiver pad I mention in that post works fine if somewhat slow, I can't see them making an actual charging case though as case choice is very subjective.

Yootech® QI Fast Charge Wireless Charger charging pad for Samsung Galaxy Note 5, Galaxy S6 Edge Plus(Adaptive Fast Charger NOT Included)
BAM!! No need to say more. Got this a month ago, actually at 14.99$ and i'm very happy. Charges from 20% to 60% in 30 minutes. Also the LED on it doesnt blind me while I sleep like the Samsung one does.
It also 1/3 of the price of the Samsung fast charging pad.
P.S. Check ebay, saw a few floating around for even less than 15$
Ordered. Thanks!

I love this thing!!!!!!! Thank you so much =)
Look for the refurbished OEM Fast Charging pad. Bought 2 of them from Amazon for around $20-$25. Both work flawlessly.
I bought a second. I have one at my desk, and use SideSync to manage my phone all day while easily charging without wires for a quick grab and go when leaving my desk. THIS IS WONDERFUL
You can get 2 for 20 on amazon.

but that's not a Fast Charger, its a normal wireless charger, the one OP mentioned is a Fast Wireless Charger.
It's weird that the Yootech fast wireless charging pad won't work at all with the Samsung charger that came with my Note5, but works perfectly using the Aukey 3 port charger with Quickcharge.
Ordered two of them. Such a killer deal and they work perfect!
Anyone tested this thing yet to confirm it works?
I ordered this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/35155034463...49&var=620580429407&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
and the damn thing charged at regular speeds. False advertising at its finest. Returned... don't want to buy this one if it's Chinese junk that isn't what it claims to be.
Use this chart to compare: http://phandroid.com/2015/09/25/samsung-fast-wireless-charging-comparison/
e.g. start charging your phone from xx% for 30 minutes and compare where you end up with where they ended up using the Samsung OEM fast charger.

UNIFUN works perfect, just like the samsung OEM and is 15W just like the original, find it on Amazon for $23

Cases usually work fine with it, provided they are not super heavy duty or thick

Is the original N5 charger still working fine on this thing? I order 2 for next week and in the same situation as you.
I should have been patient bought one of these. I decided to get an OEM sapphire black, Fast Wireless charge pad. It cam included with a fast travel charger and cable. Not a bad deal for $69.99 But its ok, I cant return it now, but I know now that I have a cheaper solution, the moment it doesn't work. Nice find

Hello guys,
Can you please suggest a good reliable wireless fast charger pad for my Note 5?
Thanks!
Check out @polish_pat 's thread. It's a $20 wireless charging pad from Amazon. Got one myself and it works like a charm.
One caveat, however, is that I noticed the "sweet spot" for this charger is much smaller that with others I've had. I'm not sure if this is a side-effect of the fast charging, or poor design. Regardless, it's now a staple on my desk.
Agreed^^^

Just order one of these for $10(with code) from Amazon. Looks like it has very good reviews. We will see...
The best one I have found is the Choetech fast wireless charger. Good for by the bed since the charging light dims in the dark. Also connects every time. I also have the Yootech and it gets frustrating trying to find the sweet spot.

Yes that is what I heard but I was looking for a less expensive option.
I ordered 2 original opened box Samsung wireless fast charger at Ebay for $16 each. I just hope they are really genuine. I will let you know.
Thanks to everyone for you comments and suggestions.

..............choetech overheating heating problem.............
I received both chargers and seem to be working great! I paid $38 for both of them but there was ni charger included. I'm using the one that came with the phones. Any suggestions for the optimal use of this charger?

Well they are Genuine Samsung Fast Wireless charger. They perform as well or as bad as the one that is sold for $50 with no charger. It does not overheat or at least not yet. Jajaja! I will keep you posted.
This is the one I have. http://amzn.to/1pkVbTp
It works really well, full speed too if you use it with the charger that came with your note.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B015XF17VM/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1 this is the one i just purchased. It was a shot in the dark because it was so cheap but honest i was very impressed. It worked perfectly! I am using the stock wire and wall charger but it definitely provides wireless fast charging for only 13 bucks. It does like to be in a particular spot but who cares!?!? For the price you cant go wrong.

I have it sitting on my desk right now, and through a case it is charging via fast charge.
As long as you have it plugged into a fast charge capable adapter it will fast charge.
@shhuhs Mine works great so far. Cheap, steady and fast! I think you can contact Choetech to ask for a replacement.
I recently bought this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B018QW09Z4/
It has a huge sweet spot, supports wireless fast charge, comes with a QC 2.0 wall adapter & cable, and only costs $19.95.
All,
Looking for a car dock (not the charger itself, already have that) that supports fast wireless charging. Suggestions?
I've come across just this, but with mixed reviews of having to position it just right: http://www.amazon.com/Qi-Infinity-W...2JFY3Z3Z0G2TS&psc=1&ref_=wl_it_dp_o_pd_nS_ttl

This supports fast wireless charging? Doesn't seem to list it. I'd also have to find it in American Amazon, but I'm sure I can figure that part out.

Just going to add this since it's something I heard recently. You can't quick charge while the screen is on. So if you want quick charge to keep your phone on while using it as a music player and gps the quick charge feature won't matter.
Yeah that makes sense due to heat issues I'm sure. Mine quick charges with the AOD going. I'll have to try it but either way at times its just in the dock in car and I want quick charging. I have a perfect dock now but doesn't do fast wireless charging.

My S7E says it's wirelessly fast charging even with the screen on. Is this inaccurate?
Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk
I fired up Google Maps while on my home wireless fast charger, still said fast charging. I'd really like to get a dock for the car with wireless fast charging support, unfortunately Amazon is littered with wireless car docks that say "fast charging" because it's just their terminology/claim when it's not actually the fast charging spec, so it's very hard to find a true fast charger for the car, beyond what I posted above.
Have a variety of fast QI chargers that all works well with my N5, even with cases (think and thick cases).
Use the same chargers with the N8 and it seems to be a hit or miss, especially with cases. Some work and some do not.
Anyone else experiencing this?
I have the Samsung Quick Charging Stand and a Spigen triple coil qi charger that's a rip of the Tylt Vu. They all work well but the spigen doesn't quick charge.
Chotetch fast charger works, confirmed because I have one as well as two convertibles from Sammy.
The choetech will charge the phone through the Sammy military grade case (whereas the Sammy one wont).
Triple coil standing Aukey works just fine, even with a case.

did you use the note 8 plug for this? i have the same charger which i got for the n7 and been using it for the s7.
the s7 will say fast wireless charging but with the note 8 it just says wireless charging and the time at 31% is 2h24m. in both these setups its using a sammy n7 charge plug.
I have two Samsung Fast Charge Wireless Charging Stands (EP-NG930) that worked great for the S7 Edge. They however do not work with the Note8 (with or without my spigen case). I tried it on a cheap flat (not fast) PowerBot Wireless charger pad and it works. Does anyone know of a good fast wireless charger stand (not pad) that works? I'm waiting for the new Samsung Fast Charge Wireless Charging Convertible to come in (the pre-order gift) but some people say that does't work sometimes in the stand position. I need a second charger for work.

I may have jumped the gun on this. I use an Anker 40w 5 port charger to feed the Seneo, as I also have a Gear S3 and an iPad that I charge at night. My Samsung charger is in a desk drawer somewhere.
I'll dig it out and hook the Seneo up to it to see what happens.
I went into a Verizon store and my Note 8 worked on their last Gen wireless charger with no problem. I believe I purchased my chargers on ebay so my conclusion is they must not be official changers and are knock offs. They look exactly like the official chargers down to the label on the bottom. They obvious knock offs have a slightly different label. The "some people" I was referring to were people who had the same experience as me based on researching this problem. Learned my lesson, saving a couple of bucks isn't worth it in the end.
I have two of the original Samsung fast charge pads (an American one and a Korean one) and they both work on my Korean Note 8 through its slim case.
Think thats my problem. I have a whole bunch of aftermarket QI Fast Chargers. Some seem to work better than others. But they all Work Well with my N5.

Question about these wireless chargers, if I don't use a Quick Charger adapter, and instead plug it into the back of my monitor for power, will it just slow charge it wirelessly? Or will that not be enough power for it to wireless charge altogether?

Probably won't have enough power. Definitely won't fast charge. Those need to be plugged into a fast charger
