Here’s a concise guide to Samsung wireless chargers and how to pick one.
Quick facts
- Samsung’s official wireless chargers are Qi‑certified and come as pads, stands, and multi‑device (duo) chargers. They’re backward compatible with any Qi device, but charging speed depends on the phone and charger specs. (samsung.com)
- Many Samsung chargers support up to 15W “Fast / Super Fast” wireless charging for compatible Galaxy phones; Apple iPhones that support wireless charging will typically charge at up to 7.5W on these chargers. Super Fast (15W) behavior may require a higher‑power wall adapter. (samsung.com)
- Newer industry Qi2 / 25W wireless specs are emerging (may change ecosystem/compatibility over time). (theverge.com)
Recommended Samsung models (official)
- 15W Wireless Charger Pad (EP‑P2400): compact pad, built‑in cooling fan, up to 15W with compatible Galaxy phones; requires appropriate adapter (Samsung notes 25W adapter for Super Fast Wireless Charging). Good if you want a low‑profile pad on a desk or nightstand. (samsung.com)
- Wireless Charger Stand (EP‑N5200 / EP‑NG930): upright stand for portrait/landscape use (video/FaceTime), fan for cooling, supports Fast Wireless Charging 2.0 (up to 15W on supported models). Often sold with a 25W PD wall adapter in some bundles. (samsung.com)
- Wireless Charger Duo / multi‑device pads (Samsung and 3rd‑party): charge phone + Galaxy Buds or watch simultaneously. Useful if you want one surface for multiple devices (watch compatibility varies). (Check model specs for Pixel/iPhone/Galaxy watch support.)
How to choose
- If you want fastest wireless charge for a Galaxy phone: choose Samsung’s 15W/“Fast” charger (pad or stand) and use a 25W PD / Super Fast adapter as recommended for full speed. (samsung.com)
- If you use your phone while charging (video/calls): get a stand (upright coils, landscape support). (samsung.com)
- If you need to charge two devices: get a Duo/multi‑device pad that supports the second device you own (earbuds/watch).
- If you have an iPhone: expect up to ~7.5W on Samsung Qi chargers (iPhone charging speed is limited by Apple and phone model). (samsung.com)
Practical tips
- Use a quality USB‑C PD or Samsung Super Fast (25W+) adapter when the charger requires it — using a weak adapter will reduce speeds. Samsung’s product pages list required input/adaptor specs. (samsung.com)
- Remove thick cases, metal plates, credit cards, or magnetic mounts between the phone and charger. Case thickness limits are sometimes noted (e.g., ~3.5 mm). (samsung.com)
- Check Samsung’s compatibility list on the specific charger product page for which Galaxy models support the top speeds. (samsung.com)
If you’d like, I can:
- Find the best current price/retailer for a specific Samsung model (I can search retailers now).
- Compare a Samsung charger vs third‑party options (Anker, Belkin, etc.) for price and features.
