Sony CP-W5 Wireless Portable Charging Pad with 5000 mAh for Qi Compatible Devices

I can't figure why folks find fault with this devise . There is one thing that crossed my mind , the fact that many have not been involved with wireless charging and find it hard to use . I purchased one of these from Amazon Warehouse deals with one thing in mind , and that was to use one my Moto 360 . As many Moto 360 owners know the watch is great but it is also a battery hog . A person can carry around this Sony charger and can give their watch a shot on a busy day when battery use is high . This thing came out last year and sold for almost $70 , so this is quiet a good deal. The Moto 360is not the only thing this power pack will charge. It will also charge your phone or any other device that charges Via USB , short cable provided with Sony product . As many of us know Sony is not in a habit of making junk . I must say I was some what disappointed when I looked on the back of the device and saw Made in China . Guess the great electronics maker Sony , is also outsourcing products. I still trust them , Sony has high standards !

Most of these reviewers with problems are citing this product's inability to charge a device while plugged into AC power... UNLESS you use a charger that is greater than 1a! Check out the mA on your AC power pack... I have not been able to get the battery to charge itself AND a device with wireless charging except with AC adapters that are greater than 1a. Tried a 750mA and 1a power pack with no luck. Yet 1.5a and 2a packs work great; charging the Sony pack and allowing it to wirelessly charge my device at the same time. I have a Motorola Droid Turbo 2 fyi. It should be noted that Sony does not recommend AC input greater than 1.5a... But I have had no issues with 2a and 2.85a turbo charger that comes with the Droid Turbo 2.

Can only get 1.5 charges out of it, so was disappointed. Also, the qi feature seems to only work from the battery even when the unit is plugged in. I bought two: one for myself and one to give as a gift, but decided to keep both and alternate keeping one under the seat of my car as a backup. It works well, just not as well as I had hoped.

The wireless part of this charges did not work for my phone despite the fact that is was listed as compatible. Very annoying because I bought this specifically for the wireless feature. It does work with a cord, though, so the purchase was not completely wasted. If you are looking for something to wirelessly charge an android razor M, do not waste your money. This is a piece of junk, but I suppose that you get what you pay for.

These originally sold at Verizon for $60+. They don't work wirelessly through a full otter box case, but if you remove the plastic hard shell they will. Great little chargers at an even better price. I now have 2 bought from here. Like people are saying, they are open boxes, but they look and perform like new

This is a very handy and convenient item for my phone. Whether on the go or not, this is definitely my charger from now on. I will surely buy one again if this one reaches the end of it's life. Great product. Hey, it's a Sony. Very reliable.

I wanted to like this. A portable recharging battery that also does Qi wireless charging? Excellent.No, not so excellent, as it turns out.Here's why:1) The Qi wireless charging has to be activated with a power button. It doesn't auto-sense and start charging.2) The charging pad is VERY finicky about actually making and keeping Qi wireless charging contact3) Once your phone is charged, the pad turns off. Permanently (unless/until you press that power button again). So if your phone gets fully charged at 2am, if you wake up at 8am, your phone will have been discharging for 6 hours. Oops...In addition, the battery is very picky about what type of wall USB charger you use (not included). You need to use a 2-2.1A charger for it register the charger reliably.On the whole, this is a cool idea but a lousy device.My personal recommendation for a Qi wireless charger (and I've tried a LOT of them) remains the Nokia DT-900. This has been discontinued by Nokia, but can be found for very little money on the third party marketplace (see Amazon listing).

This is a very great power bank. Works just fine and can charge your phone straight for 5-6 hours before getting drained. The cord that comes with it can be used with Android phones. For Apple phones, you have to use your own charging cable.
