1. Samsung Mini Wireless Charging Pad

When shopping for an accessory for your Samsung phone, it often makes sense to buy an accessory that’s also made by Samsung. This mini wireless charging pad comes with a one-year warranty. It operates under the Qi/WPC standard, but is smaller than many other Qi chargers out there. A built-in LED indicator lets you know if your device is incorrectly aligned on the charging pad.
