Hi, i finally took the plunge, my phone is it its way from America(before Trump closes the U.S down.lol)
I would like to get a wireless charger but have never used one before and I'm a bit confused with the adds on eBay(from china).
Any advice on what I need and/or recommendations on something you've bought would be greatly appreciated .

If you plan on using wireless charging a lot,it's best to get the OEM Charging cover:

Admittedly,it's quite a bit more expensive,but,a lot of the aftermarket QI Charging covers are garbage & not worth the packaging they're shipped in.

If you want a wider variety to choose from,check out this thread @ XDA-Developers:

thanks but the phone as not been released here so im pretty sure they wont be selling any accessories .

Thanks Kolio.wow,what so much more for the official rear cover. Also buying stuff from the U.S includes import tax on top.
 
Our you could do what I did.
Bought myself a $3.00 wireless charging sticker for V10.

Peeled off the stock NFC sticker and replaced it with the new wireless charging sticker. Works great and I still have stock battery cover.
 
thanks for that,I bought a set from Amazon that includes the same charging sticker but a cheap qi base. $69 seems a lot.ill see where my cheapo version gets me, hopefully not homeless !!!!! lol
 
UPDATE.
wireless charging is working via a cheap ebay kit. i had to remove the NFC stick from the battery case,fit the charger sticker then the supplied NFC sticker on that. I'm also using a cheap qi base. surprisingly it works very well,no overheating and the charging light on the base turns off when it's fully charged.
