Wireless phone chargers - where, which and how to buy?

Wireless phone chargers - where, which and how to buy?

Wireless chargers are purchased separately from the device itself, and the user often does not know which Wireless charger to buy or where. Of course, they can be bought from us, not everywhere, but some stores sell them, which I already wrote about.

First of all, which charger for which phone model?

There are two types:

Inductions are the most common and much better because they do not require the surface of the device and charger to be made of special material. However, the disadvantage of these chargers is that there is a loss of energy, ie. have less efficiency. Most have a charging efficiency of about 70%

Inductions

Conductive (conductive) are better in this regard - greater efficiency. But, the disadvantage is that they require direct contact, so the back of the device and charger must be made of special material.

Conductive

By the way, 3 organizations deal with wireless chargers: the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) which uses the Qi standard, the Alliance for Wireless Power (A4WP), and the Power Matters Alliance (PMA) - all support inductive chargers.

In fact, if the specification of your device says "Wireless charging" in 99.99% of cases, your device can use Qi chargers. Or you can check out this list of devices that support Qi chargers - http://www.qinside.biz/en/support/qi-enabled-phones-2015

Where to buy a Wireless Charger?

Like I said, you can go to local and online local stores, but the price can be a little higher. However, there are Chinese sites where you can buy them at much lower prices.

I have the most experience with the Aliexpress site, so I searched there. Prices range from 5 to 25 euros for Qi chargers.

The two most common  models at affordable prices are:

but various can be found, e.g .:

X96 Mini Android TV Box Review

I have already written an article about buying an Android TV Box for up to 30 euros, and now I am writing about one such device - the X96 Mini TV Box .

Since I wrote about it in the previous article, I will not repeat myself. These cheaper TV Box devices differ mainly only in the chip, amount of RAM, and ROM memory.
