5 Best Wireless Mobile Chargers
Time to clean up your mess!
It’s nothing short of amazing how technology has transformed the mobile phones into one of the most advanced communication devices generally used today. What was meant to solely allow us to make and receive calls wirelessly now features a host of functions that help us meet the demands of modern-day living.
Unsurprisingly, wireless technology has made vast improvements to the mobile phone. Some time ago, Apple’s iPhone ditched the headphone jack to usher in its Bluetooth-connected AirPods. It might only be a matter of time until all smartphone manufacturers get rid of wires entirely—even when it comes to charging.
If you plan to go out and shop for a wireless charger, here are some of the best ones you’d want to get your hands on.

The package includes a USB-C to USB-A cable, which is just long enough to reach desk height without much room to be maneuvered. You will need a power adapter that supports Quick Charge 3.0 to maximize this charger’s features.

If you seem to always be in a race against the clock, Pasonomi’s fast wireless charger is right up your alley. It’s Qi 2.0 vast wireless charging feature can power a Samsung Galazy smartphone from zero to full in two hours—that’s 1.4 times faster than your average Qi-enabled charging pads.
Like all Qi fast chargers, devices should be Qi-enabled. However, non-fast charge enabled devices can still be wirelessly charged, but at default charging speed.
Anker PowerWave Pad
Anker’s PowerWave Pad has a 10-watt output that not only charges smartphones like Samsung’s Galaxy S9 fast, but also an iPhone X at 7.5 watts. Either way, you still get top speed regardless of the phone.
The flat white disc design is fairly low-key with a decent weight, so it doesn’t slide across your desk. It also features a fan, which is great for keeping your phone’s temperature in check while charging. However, it does make an audible noise, so it wouldn’t be ideal for your nightstand.
