Smartphones that actually connect & charge

S8+. Works fine.

 

I bought this for my Nexus 6P which doesn't support wireless charging. I just leave this piece in the truck and plug the phone in for topoff if needed. Be aware it does not quick charge although your phone may show that, also this version is for a type C USB.

samsung S8 is works great on the wireless pad as well as weith Entune Pandora seems to struggle occasionally

 

s8 active links everytime with no issues and my s6 active before also had no issues. both also charged just fine from the Qi charger.

 

s6 active never an issue with linking or charging. i do have to fight Pandora from time to time to work. my wife's s6 use to slid around in the Qi pad and cuts in and out the charging until she put a case on it now it states where its at and charges fine!

 

I have a Galaxy S6 with a case, laying it on the pad the is a Crap Shut, some times it charges, sometimes it dose not. I cannot rely on it, so I carry a USB connector. ( no worries)

 

Samsung Galaxy S5 with $2.75 QI strip from ebay glued to the battery. Charges fine out of the case, very slowly in a thin one. Works flawlessly with bluetooth functions.

 

I have a Note8 and frequently get the insufficient connectivity error when using Pandora. It reconnects after turning the Bluetooth off then on again. Reboot has not been necessary.

 

Thank you - That's a n easy fix and I shall try it out.

 

I also have to occasionally reboot my IPhone 8 due to the “Insufficient connectivity” issue with Pandora. Not always, but too often. Very inconvenient.

 

My S8 works great on the wireless charger.

 

So, android FTMFW

 

Mine works fine with iphone 8 but the charging sucks. if the phone moves, it stops charging. Also, the charging is very slow and the phone gets hot. I went back to just using my cable.

 

note 5 worked fine and note 8 works great also

 

I have an S7 and it works great too.

 

My S8 charges flawlessly.

No overheating, no disconnects, no quirks.

It just charges.

 

not overheating, just too warm for my liking. If it charged faster then maybe, but it doesnt charge my iphone very quick.

 

I did figure out today that if I open the app on my phone and click "Disconnect" prior to shutting off the truck then it will launch & reconnect fine. That's based on a sample of 2 times, compared to a 100% fail rate previously.

 

Sounds about right lol ;-)

 

S7 edge with a spigen case, works great for me.
