Hey, I'm looking into getting a wireless charger for my phone. What's the best device for a Fold phone for wireless charging?

What USB-C cords are recommended?
What charger is recommended?
What wireless charger is recommended?

Pretty much, what chargers would your recommend for daily use?
 
i use a 65w laptop charger for everything.
use amazon, sort by rating and dont buy the cheapest 🤷‍♂️
 
For fast wired charging, especially on a Samsung phone, you want to make sure that the charger supports PPS in addition to USB Power Delivery. If it supports USB Power Delivery and/or Qualcomm Quick Charge, but doesn't also support PPS, then it still won't charge at max speed. For example, my S25 Ultra supports 45W charging via "Super Fast Charging 2.0", but if I plug it into my 65w battery bank that doesn't have PPS, it only charges at 25w. It's not nearly as intuitive as it should be unfortunately.

For wireless charging, you're probably going to be limited to older 10w or even 5w wireless charging. Anything above 10w really needs to use magfit/magsafe as opposed to just setting the phone on a traditional wireless charging pad, to make sure that the coils are well aligned and avoid excess heat output if they aren't. To use a magfit/magsafe wireless charger, you really need to get a magfit/magsafe compatible case. With a non-folding phone, you have tons of options in this regard. Finding a good magfit/magsafe case for a fold is a bit more challenging but they are out there.

140W Anker charger: 3 USB-C and a USB-A. It does PD 3.1 and PPS, and you can get 65W out of two USB-C ports at the same time. Lists for $90, but I got it for $60.

Samsung Trio 65w

Will even charge certain other brands like Motorola at full speed. PSS / PD etc.

Ebay has them for $10-$15 occasionally but >$20 is the norm.
