I’ve noticed my X get a little warm but no warmer than when it's charging normally.
I fall asleep so I really don’t know how warm my 8 Plus is getting charging overnight, but when I pick it up in the morning at 100 percent it’s not even close to being warm.

I’m sort of leaning towards the Samsung charging stand. I’m planning to put it on the desk in my office.

I was wondering if the angle is steep enough for Face ID to work from a distance. Can someone with the Samsung charging stand check this? Thanks.

Hello all! Looking for a wireless charging pad for my iPhone X for my nightstand. It will be to use while I sleep so no need for it to charge super fast. All the charging pads to look through is overwhelming!!! Prefer to order off Amazon, any ones ya'll have that you like and will work good?!

I've had no problems with this one on my nightstand:

Wireless Charger, RAVPower Fast Charge Qi Wireless Charging Pad Standard Charge for iPhone X iPhone 8 Quick Charge for Galaxy S8 Note 8 and Other Qi-Enabled Devices

Its so nice to be able to just plonk your phone down at night without having to fiddle with the lightning cable/port. The smaller pads tend to be easier to align as well - the Belkin BoostUP has a large surf area, much of which s not actually covered by the charging coil.

I got myself this AUKEY wireless charging stand. I totally dig it. It's elegant because as it's standing, you can even unlock your phone just by looking at it.

I've used it multiple times and the charge is fast and reliable. iPhone barely gets warm. I highly recommend it on top of the quality it comes a decent price, compared to the stuff being sold on the Apple Store.

I got the Mophie powerstation mini as a car mount for my car. When it has a microUSB connected (which I hardwired) it will charge on contact. It is also an effective magnetic mount when used with the iPitaka case. See this video.

Even integrated the Ikea Rallen within my desk... If it's possible to charge without any cables, I don't want to see any cables for the charger.

I love the concept of this, but man, I wish the case actually covered the phone.

Just got the Mophie as a present. Enjoying not hearing a squealing noise coming from the charger unlike the old Ravpower. Also, properly-supported 7.5W charging, a heavier and grippier base... happy!

The Evutec case is very similar but does cover the phone.

HAH!

I literally just bought (the Karbon) one this weekend. The only problem is, the metal plates are spaced too far apart for my Spigen 6-magnet car mount.

Does anyone have an suggestions? I have this mount in my Jeep:
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ONDM07G/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It has a standard sized (for things like GPS's) ball mount. So I need the 'head' of whatever sort of magnetic mount, to be able to be attached to that.


EDIT: I SCROLLED UP AND THE IPITAKA MOUNTS LOOK LIKE THEY DO THE JERB!

I'm so happy I could jump up and down.
