Looking for the perfect stocking stuffer for the techie in your life? Check out the Samsung Wireless Charger Pad, a sleek pocket-sized wireless charger that can get that special someone up and running in no time.

Simply place your Qi-compatible smartphones and earbuds on top of the pad, and it will immediately begin charging. It also works with PD and Adaptive Fast Charging devices, allowing your phone to power up faster¹. This sleek charging pad fits neatly on a table or desk so you don't need a lot of space to get a little extra battery life. And, it even charges through lightweight cases².

Standard 5W charging speed applies to Qi compatible devices. Requires included wall charger to operate as advertised. Use of improper power source may result in damage to charging pad.

²Case material type may affect ability to charge through case. Case thickness over 3mm may cause wattage to drop and produce heat, resulting in longer charging times.
