Aesthetically pleasing and works through a thick phone case
308017
There are a seemingly unlimited number of wireless chargers out there, mostly from brands I've never heard of. Where to start? Some of the nice looking ones from well-known brands come with a hefty price tag. Many of the cheaper options are ugly. And then there's the question "will it work through my phone case?"
I always use a Supcase Unicorn Beetle case, which is about the most robust you can get but it is quite thick and not easily removable. So when I came across this wireless charger, it ticked all the right boxes:
- Elegant enough to fit in with my decor
- From a supplier I've heard of and used before (Mobile Fun - must be more than 10 years ago and they're still around)
- USB-C connection without an included power supply which would be wasteful
- Cheap enough that if it didn't work for me, it wouldn't hurt too much
- Subtle lights THAT DON'T FLASH!
And I must say that I'm very happy with it. It does charge well through my Supcase. Being a single coil on each side of the charger, I have to place the phone fairly accurately but it's easy enough. It also seems to work well from any of my USB-C power sources.
Conclusion - a good choice.
