Hello
I received a charger for a gift with only the flat round charger, a cord and no plug to the wall.
The wall plug sells for $14 at Amazon.
The charger says Apple compatible but has no Apple logo per se.
It is a PhunkeeTree Wireless Charging Leather Pad. It says 10W.
Should I only use the charger that came with my phone for my phone or should I get a 10W plug at Amazon which again says compatible with Apple?
It is not worth damaging my phone's battery if the gift is not right.
Thank you

Any of that might be OK, but I'd recommend sticking with Apple products or MFi certified accessories.

I would say you probably will not have a problem using a aftermarket charger but I bet the phone will not allow it to charge past the normal wireless chargers out there
