Nomad - Wireless Charging Pad for iPhone and Apple Watch - Black

Seriously this is a great accessory to pair with your wireless charging compatible Apple devices. My AirPods, Apple Watch, iPhone, enjoy their new bedside home. The Nomad looks very modern and sleek. It utilizes 3 coils, each with a rating of 7.5W output. There are also 3 LED lights on the front of the base which represents each coil. A white light means the object is fully charged, yellow indicates charging. Don’t worry about the room being dark and having bright LED’s. The Nomad has an ambient light sensor to dim the LED’s at night! I would say there are a couple minor cons to address which was why I gave a 4 star instead of 5. 1.) Trying to get a charging connection when placing the phone in the vertical position. I do at times need to slightly move the phone around on that spot to get a charging connection. 2.) No outputs for device charging with a cable. This would make sense to have and allow other devices to charge such as my iPad or usb power brick. I have to place them at another area of the room. Regardless of the minor cons I mentioned, the Nomad wireless charging station is phenomenal!

I've admired Nomad's products for a while for their beautiful, modern, and robust designs – and this is no exception. I was looking for a new type of charging solution that reduced cable clutter on my nightstand area while still looking beautiful, and this pad is perfect. I can conveniently (and fairly quickly) charge my Apple Watch, AirPods, and phone all at the same time when needed. This multi-device wireless charger looks and feels very premium and works great for all of my QI-compatible devices. I love the combination of sturdy aluminum and soft leather-style charge pad. The underside of the charger is plastic and features two well-sized rubberized pads to keep it in place. The wireless charge speeds aren't as fast as Magsafe or wired fast-chargers, but I can still add about 30-50% charge for my phone and 80% for my watch in the span of an hour. I mostly charge my devices on overnight, so charge speeds do not matter much as I drop them on there and wake up to them fully charged in the morning. The charger is attached by an AC cable with standard wall plug at the other end. There are three specific wireless charging spots that you can lay your devices on – left, middle and right (see photo with green circles. That means you can place a smaller item and a phone side-by-side or lay the phone parallel to the pad by itself in the middle. These spots can be a little tricky to find since there are no markings to show the exact positions, but the small indicators will light up when the device is in the right spot. Sometimes this takes some searching – I've often had to move my phone around slowly until it vibrates indicating a connection. However, sometimes the wireless charging connection is still slightly off, and I have woken up in the morning a few times to my phone being only slightly charged or sometimes completely dead because I didn't get the positioning correct.

This charger is great. The nomad charges my phone, Airpods 2 and my watch all at the same time. I really like it. You truly do live in a wireless world. FYI, if you have a bumper case on your Apple watch, you will need to play around with to get the watch to charge. Once you do, it works great.

Nomad wireless charging pad works just as I had intended. Ok maybe it takes a second to lay phone on and find the sweet spot. No big deal. Charges my watch, airpods, and phone overnight with no issues!

This Nomad charging station is excellent for removing the clutter of multiple charging cords and freeing up electrical outlets. It is small enough that it could even pack up well for travel. This particular model does not offer the USB-C or Micro-USB port, so not able to plug another device to it. However, for most people that only have a phone, an smart watch (Apple Watch) and maybe AirPods, this charging station should be sufficient. The fit and finish is impeccable. Only nit is that the Qi charging pads are a little difficult to index since the finish is simply smooth with no markings or circles like other Qi charging pads. The Apple Watch Charger works flawlessly and presents the screen for viewing in nightstand mode.

Mainly use it for my apple watch. As a phone and airports chargers it's not as reliable. Hard to find the right charging space for the other devices. Great design, but charging wise only reliable for Apple watch.

The look is the best on the market and it’s well built in aluminum but it doesn’t charge the Apple Watch and the alignment of the iPhone on the right coil it’s almost impossible to get it on the first attempt, do not waste your money

Can’t charge multiple items on the pad and it’s has to be dead center to charge.. very deceiving since the packaging shows two items being charged at once. Could be defective but I’m returning it.
