mophie - Qi2 Charging stand - White

[Employee of bestbuy] The product itself is great, looks great on my desk and has a strong magnet. I wish it advertised a bit better on the box that it does not come with the charger.

I really like the sturdiness of the stand but was very disappointed that you spend $35 for a stand that doesn't include a fast charging cable and base.

Magnetic, wireless charging may be one of the best phone related advancements in the past ten years. I'm a big fan. Everybody should have a charging stand of some kind, especially if you've got a phone with an always on display. It makes for a great bedside alarm clock, especially if you set up the Standby mode of an iPhone with widgets. Fortunately, these charging stands are pretty easy to find in many varieties and at many price points now, so they're an easy accessory to pick up and scatter around your house. So how's this one? It's good. The overall construction is solid and sturdy. There's no fear of this thing being tipped over accidentally when just casually picking up or putting down your phone. It looks quite nice overall, in my opinion. Sleek and modern with a fairly small footprint. There are channels on the underside for cable management if you need/want it. The rubber where the phone attaches to the stand is soft and should not damage the phone at all. Charging speeds are good, though it's important to point out that so much of this is determined by what charging brick you use - and this (like most) does not come with a brick or USB-C cable at all. Definitely recommend getting a good brick with a higher voltage, as it can make a big difference. Going from 45% to 100% in thirty-five minutes is pretty nice and way better than what it used to be when wireless first showed up. There may be faster options out there, but I think if speed is what you want then I would assume you're probably better off just plugging into your USB-C port on the phone directly. This is a charger meant to be part of your furniture, which means your phone becomes part of the furniture. It's probably not the place to dump your phone for a quick top off and then pick it up again. There are some things though that kind of make me ever so slightly underwhelmed. For starters, the very white rubber pad arrived with a black smudge on it that does not easily come off. I could be wrong, but I suspect maybe this actually happened as a result of rubbing against the black cardboard packaging. Lastly, I wish there was a little more range in the extent the head tilts on the stem. Not a huge deal; you'll likely find an angle that works perfectly well. It just would be nice to have slightly more flexibility. All in all, this is a solid option for a very recommended bit of nightstand convenience.

I purchased this one as a gift since I like mine so much. No more digging behind the nightstand for a stray cord.

It’s a nice stand. Good, sturdy base. The white color pops. The magnet is strong and has no problem holding my late model smart phone. Charging is quick, and I don’t get any messages saying that my phone is slow charging. The angle of the magnet can be changed, so if you wanted to, you can mount your phone in landscape mode and change the angle to where it is comfortable to watch videos. For me, this mount sits on my nightstand and is used exclusively for charging overnight. it does that without a problem. I do have a couple of minor complaints. The packaging material was not very good, and when my mophie charging stand arrived, it had dark scuffs on it that are not coming out. I tried a magic eraser on them, it didn’t matter. You can see them in the pictures. And, in addition to that issues, the mophie didn’t come with a charging cable or wall wart. So, if you are looking to just pull this out of the box and use it without having or purchasing another cable/power supply, that isn’t going to happen. Other than that, the stand works well and I haven’t had any issues with it.
