Design of this Samsung 15W Fast Charge 2.0 Wireless Charger Stand
This Samsung 15W fast charge 2.0 wireless charger stand looks sturdy. It has the classical matte finish design, with 2 color options – black and white.
But we’re not very satisfied with the looks. It looks, kind of, bulky, but actually it weights only about 10 ounces. It’s not a bulky wireless charger but it does look like so, compared to other Samsung wireless charger stands.
Like other wireless charger stands, you can charge your phone on this one in portrait or in landscape.
There is a built-in cooling fan in the back, so during charging, your phone keeps cooler and charges more safely and efficiently.
The downside is that you may hear high-pitched noise when the phone is charging. But you can turn the fan off on your phone if you’ve got a Note 10. Same as the LED light.
In spite of this, we do not recommend you put it in your bedroom to charge overnight if you have other phones.
We think it’s much better to use this Samsung 15W fast wireless charger in your office or in your living room.
