Tired of fiddling with cords just to charge your smartphone? Free yourself with the Letscom Ultra Slim Wireless Charger, which is only $9 at Amazon.
If you have a new-ish phone (Apple iPhone 8 and up; Samsung Galaxy S6 and up) chances are it’ll work with this handy device. (Not sure? Check this website to see.)
What’s so special about this model? It’s one of the few wallet-friendly wireless chargers that features 15 watts of power—standard wall chargers have 7.5 watts. For reference, the Anker PowerWave Pad wireless charger only has 10 watts at a more expensive price.
Thanks to the sleek pad’s ‘set it and forget it’ design, simply place your smartphone on top for some quick juice. The pad charges up to 65 percent more efficiently than standard chargers when paired with a Quick Charge 3.0 AC wall adapter (sold separately).
One of the best things about wireless charging is that it’s stress-free. “Instant satisfaction,” writes a five-star reviewer. “It’s so cool to place your phone down and not be looking for the cord, especially if you’re half asleep. I just set it on my nightstand and don’t worry about a thing.”
Reviewers are impressed with the speedy results. “Love this charger,” says a happy shopper. “I used it to charge my iPhone X—it was at 30 percent, came back 30 minutes later and it was at 95 percent. That’s pretty fast.”
The charger features overheat protection and auto shutoff, so it won’t fry your device either—even if you leave it on for long periods of time. And it’s easy to use. “Unlike other pads I've had, it isn't super finicky about phone orientation or placement,” shares another fan. “It pretty much charges any way I put the phone down on it.”
