The Best Wireless Chargers

by Bev Bachel

Wireless chargers have become increasingly popular in recent years, allowing users to charge their devices without the hassle of cords and cables.

No matter what your work circumstances, most of us find ourselves in need of an outlet for a charger from time-to-time, and often we’re out of luck when one isn’t available.

So I decided to get serious about finding a wireless charger that would get my devices back up and running when my batteries weren’t. After doing some online research and talking with several mobile-phone representatives and tech-savvy friends, here’s what I learned:

Getting Started

1. Wireless chargers are a great way to charge smartphones, smartwatches, tablets, Bluetooth headsets, cameras, and other devices.

2. Most wireless chargers work via a wireless charging pad or stand—simply place your device on the pad or stand and it charges automatically. No cables, no adapters.

3. To be charged wirelessly, devices must be Qi compatible. Pronounced “chee,” Qi is a global standard that enables wireless charging. To see if a device is Qi compatible, look for the Qi logo, which is a magnifying glass focused on the letter ‘i’ or check your user manual. Also check out this list of Qi-enabled wireless charging smartphones. (Note: Some phones such as the Samsung Galaxy S5 and newer Apple iPhones can be made Qi-enabled via a Qi-receiving battery shell or case.)

4. A wireless charging device that works for one device may not work for another.

Here are some of the best wireless chargers available on the market:
