Looking for Qi Charging for Non-Phone, Headphones and Misc

Waffles on 05/05/2021 - 10:19

Looking for some options and advice.

I have a mobile (note 10), wireless headphones (jabra 75t), watch (samsung active 2) and a wireless mouse (g502) that could theorhetically be charged through a mat, though I'm guessing that'd be logitech only.

So what I want is the void between my keyboard and monitor to have a charging station with the following goals.

  1. A charging cradle so I can see my phone while it charges
  2. A way to charge my wireless headphones.
  3. It charges fast enough but doesn't have to be too fast. My understanding is that 15w for example can heat up devices too much, but 5w seems too slow for a note 10. Happy to take advice.

Nice to have would be:

  1. A built in USB hub for random stuff or to charge g502
  2. A way to also charge my watch, though i usually have that in the bedroom as an alarm clock
  3. Minimal bulk, i.e. i'd rather not a fixed "arm" to charge my watch

So a dual mat could work but they don't seem to have hubs and wouldn't allow easy access to phone.
The ones designed for Apple look too big and I'm not sure if all the magsafe nonsense makes them incompatible.
The quality seems to be pretty broad. I don't want to pay heaps but don't want to ruin my devices with a cheap product.

So, please, help me find something useful amongst the heaps of junk!

    Wdym by this? Logitech isn't the only one that provides wireless charging through a mouse pad or mat.

      I don't know if "powerplay" as logitech calls it is a proprietary standard or if it's using something more generic. In any case even if the mat could power the mouse I need the little coil thing for the mouse.

      Edit: And charging it isn't as important as the phone/headphones - it's just that if there was some fancy all in one I'd consider that too.

    This might work… depending on how your headphones charge wirelessly though

      These are exactly the kinda thing I wasn't sure of. are all 3 pads Qi enabled or are the smaller two special? Without mag-safe will a non-apple watch sit on the arm?

      First thing I thought of too, seems to tick all the boxes

        Like I said though, will an active wear 2 sit on the arm and charge/not fall off?

      So it says "Widely Compatible 7.5W fast charging compatible with iPhone 11/11PRO/11PRO MAX/8/8 plus/XS MAX/XR/XS/X. 10W fast charging compatible with Qi-enabled Android cell phone. 2W fast charging compatible with Apple Watch Series 5/4/3/2/1. Dock charging compatible for Airpods 1/2/Pro"

      Makes no mention that non-apple watches and headphones would work…

      I don't have airpods though so that'd have a big notch not doing anything.
