Review on tzumi Multi-Angle Folding Desktop Wireless Charging Pad – Fast Qi Wireless Charger for iPhone X, iPhone 8, 8+ & Android Qi Devices. Dual Coils, USB Cable Included. AC Adapter Not Included. by Mariealphonse Seattle

I have an iPhone Xs with a Tech21 EVO Check case and this Tzumi stand charges perfectly through the Tech21 case. I like this charging stand more than the flat round holders you put your phone on. Of course you have to be a little more careful when putting your phone on it to start charging, but I like the fact that the phone is in a standing position and you can squeeze it or read the messages that appear on the lock screens too when my cell phone is on the charging station. And the angle of the stand is adjustable, so you can adjust the viewing angle. You can also use it horizontally if you really prefer to rest your phone on it. I liked it so much that I bought a second one. I see few downsides. Yes, the LED is really bright in a dark bedroom, but you can easily hide that with a piece of black tape. You also need to purchase a wall charger separately, and I'm not thrilled with the location of the side connector at the base of the mount that the included USB cable plugs into (but that's kind of understandable when you realize the mount is collapsible when traveling and it would be difficult to have the power cord on the back). One last thing about the PSU options. I connected one of these mounts to an old Blackberry USB charger that only put out 0.75 amps at 5 volts and it charged just fine. And then I put it on my bedside table, where I use an Anker 6-port charger, which I believe puts out 2.4 amps per port. The phone is usually charged overnight. And now I've connected my first Tzumi stand to one of the fancy quick chargers (Anker PowerPort +1 running Quick Charge 3.0) which should charge the phone quickly. I haven't noticed much of a difference, but to be honest I carry two phones around (work and personal) all day and my personal iPhone Xs rarely uses less than 50% when I put it on the charger, so I'm me not sure i'm the best benchmark to tell you if the fast charge feature actually works. If I ever drain my battery to around 20% I'll try to pay attention to the charge time and post an update.
