How Galaxy S4 wireless charger works? In Galaxy S4 Wireless charging kit, you get two things one is Wireless charging pad plus Wireless charging cover. Firstly, you have to remove the original S4 back cover, attach the new Wireless charging cover (of course it will make your phone thicker to original S4), then place the phone on Wireless charging pad. Then because of induction current, Galaxy S4 starts getting charging. But the charging time on Galaxy S4 wireless charger is 3 times more than that of Wall mounted USB charger. So, you may judge and decide if it is okay with you. The Galaxy S4 wireless charger pad matches the body of original Galaxy S4, because from outside both have similar touch plus same material. But on the charging table you will find layer of a rubber that creates friction between S4 body and charging pad. But it can prevent S4 from sliding only for small angles of inclination. Angle more than 45 is not recommended. Also, you will see a dotted circle representing the perfect area of placement Galaxy S4 on the wireless charging pad.If we talk about the connectivity of Samsung Galaxy S4 wireless charger, then you will find only a microUSB port that is used for connecting or powering it from original wall mounted charger. You will not find any button on the wireless charger itself. You just need to plug and the indicator present on the charging pad will guide you that how you are doing, if you have placed the S4 on the right place or not. **Requires 2Amp charger to function, sold separately. Check the label on the charger that came with your handset to verify it is 2Amp. Compatible with all Qi-enabled smartphones The LED indicator on the charging pad will turn green if your phone is properly charging or will turn yellow if your phone is not in the correct placement on the pad in order to charge effectively.

Careful.
The product seems to be ok, but it wasn't advertised that it doesn't come in original packaging. It's ok but I wouldn't order again.

Can't live without it!
This product is the best thing since sliced bread! It has made charging my Verizon Galaxy S4 so easy. The kit comes with the charging pad and the cellphone back cover (which looks identical to the original).All you need to do is plug in your micro USB cable into the port on the pad, carefully install the back cover on your phone and you are done. When you place the phone on the pad, a message pops up on the phone stating the connection was made and the phone will start charging. This is a great feature because it lets you know you that you placed the phone correctly on the pad.I will probably end up buying another one to use at my office and maybe even in my car! Much easier than playing around with plugging cables into outlets or USB ports and trying to keep the cord out of my way when using the phone.UPDATE 10/10/2013:If you find the the included case does not work well with cases because it is too thick you may try using Qi Standard Wireless charging Receiver for SAMSUNG Galaxy S4 . This little receiver actually sticks inside your battery and you use your original back cover. You will then be able to use any case you wish. Cases do not interfere with the wireless charging and there is no need to remove them. The Qi Receiver works perfectly with the Samsung Qi Pad.

Great solution!
Simple solution when the charging port in my Samsung Galaxy S4 (very expensive) phone burned out after only a few months of use.You need to buy the whole kit which is a special back cover for the phone and the charging pad itself. You need your own charging cord which must be a 2V (the one that came with your phone). The new phone back looks exactly like the old one but has a tiny bit more weight to it which must be the special lining on the inside that is absorbing the charge.I plugged the charging cord into the charging pad and put the phone on it and it immediately began charging. It does take longer to fully charge, but my habit has been to charge overnight so this isn't an issue for me.The charging pad is slick, so you must be sure you place it on a flat surface so the phone doesn't slip off. And don't place it near the edge of the table where your golden retriever can walk by wagging his tail and knock it off kilter. If the phone moves outside the outlined area on the pad, the connection is broken.I'm loving this alternate way of charging and will probably buy a pad and cord for my office. If you own a Samsung Galaxy S4 phone, you may want to consider buying one of these now!

Best accessory for the Galaxy S4
This works awesome. Of course after installing the new battery door the phone is a bit thicker (about 1 1/2 mm) but my case still did fit in an acceptabl way (I use a slim fit case from caseology). The phone charger fine with the case on, too. When you place the phone on the pad a message pops up informing you that it is charging. The messages closes itself after a few seconds. Super convenient. I am very happy with this purchase.
