My basic bitch wireless phone charger stand. Holds it at a good angle so I can see when someone sending me a Teams message while I’m pretending to work.
I honestly felt wireless charging was stupid until I finally got a phone that happened to have that capability and a cheap charger gifted to me. It’s so nice especially if you use your phone as a secondary screen. And on IOS with that new thing where it shows your calendar and the weather when “docked” on a wireless charger is just a *chefs kiss*
I knew I’d like it as soon as it was announced, just not for the same reason I thought (no damaged USB ports). What I really love is not having wires everywhere that get caught on this
I love wireless charging. I don’t know how it would be a gimmick, except that it’s slower than using a cord (but I think the next generation is supposed to be really fast). They make DIY wireless chargers that you can wire up and put in things. I have two that I mounted under the little tray on top of my dash. I put my wireless charging earbuds case in the tray and it automatically charges while I’m driving. I have a flashlight that can charge there too. The tray is too small for a phone or else a phone could charge there. I’ve been thinking about putting one inside my nightstand at home https://a.co/d/gdghAWp
I also like magnetic phone holders with wireless charging. I made mine out of a different type of mount and charger but it’s something like the link. I have one mounted to my dash where I can see the phone if I need nav or something, it holds it firmly and charges as I’m driving. Also mounted one on my desk next to the computer. https://a.co/d/7pauuzO
I hate the concept because it’s just really wasteful of energy. If I recall correctly, only 30% of the power output of the charger goes into the device, versus 95+% for wired.

I saw someone going off about how wireless charging is a stupid gimmick and liking it just means you fell for the marketing hype.
So I guess you and I are suckers. I love my INIU wireless charging stands that I bought 2 of for $30 or whatever
