One thought on “5 Wireless Charging Pads for Your iPhone 8 and iPhone X

  • I am not overly happy with wireless charging. In just dealing with my Apple watch, I have found it is too easy to knock at the watch off the charger. Even when I put the watch in what I think is a safe area, I have not the watch off the charger. While wireless charging may be a nice idea and probably safer as long as there’s no data transfer, I think I still prefer a wired charger.
