6 Best Wireless Chargers for the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5

Samsung flagships have had wireless charging for years now. While it’s much slower than the wired route, using a wireless charger is convenient and handy in certain situations. You can simply rest your phone on your bedside table before sleeping and wake up to a full charge. If that’s the type of convenience you’re seeking, we’ve prepared a list of the best wireless chargers for the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5.

The Galaxy Z Fold5 supports fast wireless charging at up to 15W. While all the chargers on this list don’t output at that wattage, we’ve included a good mix of products for various purposes. From lay-flat pads to vertical stands, here are some of the best Galaxy Z Fold5 wireless chargers you can consider buying. But before that –

• Charge your phone quickly or power a wireless charger using a fast charger for the Galaxy Z Fold5.
• Improve the experience of using your phone by getting accessories for your Galaxy Z Fold5.

1. Anker 315 Wireless Charging Pad

Charging speed: 10W

Anker’s wireless charging puck is quite slim so it looks good on most surfaces. The top surface is glossy so while it looks nice, it does accumulate a lot of dust and fingerprints. Anker has added a rubber ring around the perimeter of the charging pad to keep your phone in place when it’s charging. We feel it’s a nice touch.

While Anker doesn’t ship an adapter in the box, the package includes a fairly long cable. So if your wall outlet is far from your table, you won’t have any issues. One issue though is that the included cable is a micro USB one. That’s because the Anker 315 has a micro USB port which is surely a bummer in 2023. But since they’re including the cable in the box, we can cut Anker some slack.

2. iOttie Ion Wireless Charging Stand

Charging speed: 10W

Undoubtedly, the design of the iOttie Ion wireless charger is its USP. That’s not to say the product isn’t good as a charger. The Ion charging pad outputs 10W of power which isn’t the fastest but it’s good enough for an overnight recharge.

Moreover, the brand includes everything you need to get started with the product. The package includes a USB-C cable and a fast-charging adapter so you won’t have to make any additional purchases. Another highlight of the iOttie Ion charger is that it has two coils — one at the bottom and one at the top.

Due to the narrow chassis of the Z Fold5, charging it when placed horizontally can be an issue on some vertical stands. However, the dual-coil feature of the iOttie Qi charger tackles that problem.

3. Belkin Quick Charge Wireless Charger

Charging speed: 15W

Unlike the Anker 315, the Belkin Quick Charge pad has a minimalistic design with rubberized plastic. The soft material adds a good amount of grip for your phone — something that’s essential for a large and heavy phone like the Galaxy Z Flip5.

Just like the iOttie charging stand, Belkin also bundles a charging adapter and a USB-C cable with the pad. So if you want to avoid distractions when working and want to enjoy fast wireless charging speeds, we highly recommend the Belkin Quick Charge wireless charger.

However, just like all wireless charging pads with a flat design, picking up your phone to use it will pause the charging every single time.

4. RapidX Myport Power Bank & Wireless Charger

Charging speed: 10W

Since the wireless charger stays plugged into an outlet at all times, the attached power bank is always at full capacity. So if you’re in a hurry, simply pull out the power bank and charge your phone either wirelessly at 10W or using a USB-C cable at 18W.

Given the large 10,000mAh capacity of the power bank, you should be able to charge your Galaxy Z Fold5 about 2 times with ease. Once you’re back home, just place the charger back into its stand to juice it up. RapidX has come up with an innovative design for its wireless charger that’s also quite practical.

As per reviews, the power bank does get rather warm when charging. That’s quite understandable though since both the power bank and your phone are being charged simultaneously.

5. LK Wireless Charging Station

Charging speed: 15W

LK’s wireless charging station has been designed specifically keeping Samsung’s foldables in mind. The base is slightly wider to accommodate thicker folding phones like the Galaxy Z Fold5. In fact, the charging surface to the side has also been designed in a way that you can open your Z Fold5 to use the internal display while still wirelessly charging the phone.

These are small touches that go a long way in improving a product’s user experience. LK also includes a detachable Galaxy Watch charger that connects via a USB-C port to the stand. The combined output of all three charging surfaces is 15W.

Simply place the LK 3-in-1 wireless charging stand next to your bedside table to avoid any cable clutter. You just have to place your gadgets on their respective surfaces before going to bed after a tiring day. Wake up to all your devices fully charged by morning.

6. Samsung Wireless Charger Trio

Charging speed: 15W

The Wireless Charging Trio is just one long slab of plastic with multiple charging coils. It’s Samsung’s version of AirPower — but one that actually exists. You can charge two phones or a phone and a pair of wireless earbuds simultaneously using the pad. On the side, Samsung gives you a groove to charge your Galaxy Watch.

Unlike the LK wireless charging stand, the Samsung Trio has a flat design so it’s more like a mat. The bigger difference though is that the Trio can fast-charge the Galaxy Z Flip5 at 15W wirelessly as opposed to 10W using the LK station.

While you will be paying more for the Samsung Trio, it’s a first-party accessory so you also get the added peace of mind. It’s also arguably better in terms of design and feels futuristic since you can place your phone just about anywhere on the surface and it starts charging.
