a Qi charger with a trick up its sleeve
0:02
let's check this one out Dave Taylor
0:11
here and I'm looking at the will follow
0:13
data wireless Qi charging unit that's
0:16
this now you look at this and you think
0:19
okay it's one of those chargers where
0:22
you plug it in and comes with wire you
0:24
plug it in and now you can put a device
0:27
on it and it'll charge wirelessly and
0:31
so it's charging wirelessly everything
0:33
works fine what's special about this
0:35
what's special is it turns out that this
0:38
little device can either lay flat or
0:41
with the little stand that has cunningly
0:44
hidden in the back you can slide that in
0:47
through the front part and now it can
0:52
stand up so you can do that let's plug
0:55
it back in and I will demonstrate that
0:57
it does in fact still work and so I have
1:01
it all set up as a stand and I put my
1:05
phone on it and with any luck it is now
1:08
charging wirelessly Qi charging iPhone
1:12
10 super cool now before these sounds
1:15
incredibly cool have to tell you one
1:17
limitation on it and that is as they
1:20
tell you let's actually turn this off
1:22
and you'll see a little better is that
1:24
it doesn't charge in this orientation
1:27
it's just the way they designed where
1:30
the charging coil is so if you put it on
1:34
sideways it works fine and then you
1:36
could actually like watch Netflix or
1:38
something while it's charging which is
1:39
super nice so it's lay flat or stand up
1:43
and it's kind of a neat little design
1:46
it's not a great little design though I
1:48
have to say I can totally handle the
1:51
fact that it doesn't charge vertically
1:52
but this stand it's just a little wobbly
1:55
and when you put it on here it has a
1:58
tendency to not stay in so then your
2:01
phone ends up but it sort of can be at a
2:03
funny angle and it charges except for
2:06
sometimes when it doesn't because if
2:08
it's too far out then the phone's too
2:10
far away from the charge
2:11
Coyle so so it goes now it supports
2:15
quick charge to if you bring your own
2:18
quick charge to charger in fact it
2:22
doesn't come with the charger so like
2:24
many Qi charging units it actually is
2:27
just the charging coil and a wire with a
2:31
usb on the end so basically you plug
2:34
this into whatever you want to plug it
2:36
into if you plug it into a QC 2 or QC 3
2:40
this is actually a QC 3 or quick charge
2:43
3 charger if you plug it into this then
2:46
theoretically it charges faster in my
2:49
tests I didn't really see much of any
2:51
difference but I'm also running with an
2:52
iPhone which doesn't do the full quick
2:55
charge like say a samsung galaxy s 9
2:57
would do so regardless it is a pretty
3:01
simple solution and if you're looking
3:04
for something you can leave in your
3:05
backpack or your bag and for the most
3:08
times you can just leave it laying flat
3:10
and charged with it and when you really
3:12
need to and you're in a pinch you want
3:14
to be able to have it be a stand and be
3:16
able to charge while you're watching a
3:19
movie or something then obviously how it
3:22
works perfectly fine now it is a budget
3:24
solution so it's not like this is one of
3:26
these 60 70 $80 way over-the-top super
3:30
fancy qi chargers this is one that's
3:33
much more affordable so you take you
3:35
know what you get there's no charger
3:37
that comes with it this is a separate
3:39
product this is not included and it
3:41
works ok you know it charges the phone
3:44
and that's really its primary function
3:45
all that's left for us to talk about is
3:49
the price but before we get to the price
3:51
let me ask if you can click on that
3:53
subscribe button and I really appreciate
3:56
that I really appreciate when you can
3:57
subscribe to my channel ok so the price
4:01
the woeful low data Wireless Qi charger
4:05
a two and one which it can be a stand
4:09
and it can also lay flat will cost you
4:12
$14.99 at amazon.com so not the greatest
4:17
teacher in the world but not bad and
4:19
actually for the price it's definitely
4:21
quite functional so you know the deal so
4:24
you can make your decision this is Dave
