The wireless charger is a better experience than putting a cable in your phone in my opinion, but the dock they used to include in the box is a far better than both.
It was simple to put your phone in (as opposed to a cable that might fall off the table or move around), and kept the phone facing you making it easy to interact with while charging (unlike the wireless charger).
But at some point they probably figured out they could save 20 cents by selling it separately.
- eclipxe 8y agoThey make wireless chargers in a dock form. I love it - same interactivity as a dock but easy to pick up and go.
- _ph_ 8y agoI second that. I have an Anker charging stand and it works beautifully. As it is a stand, there are no alignment problems, and it is easy to keep using the phone, especially, as face id always triggers when looking at the phone when I get a notification. The charging mat I have requires careful alignment and while lying flat, face id usually does not trigger.
