Hi, I am looking to get hold of some qi chargers in the UK and as Google still see fit not to provide us with any orbs I was wondering from the range of qi chargers available - which is the one to get in the UK?
a little ebay search returns :
http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_n...+wireless+charger+nexus+4&_osacat=0&_from=R40
but there are some mentioned here that you cant get on ebay. I.e. the ones that were given out for free at CES 2013 that someone posted a while back. Anyone have any definate reccomendations for purchasing or should I hold out hope for Google who just never say when they will or will not allow me to buy something from them .
I
Wondered the same myself since wireless charging unit disappeared from the UK play store

really interested in this one:

looks like perfect feature set:
micro USB,
good size
Cool, I just bought one off that guy in Harrow - shame it comes in only white, why White?!
Anyhow - it arrives wednesday next week - will let you know my thoughts on it. I was thinking of doing a mod with it for the car so when Play do actually stock the official one, I can pick one of them up for the room.
I bought the Zens one from Amazon Germany... Although it was shipped to me from Dunfermline (only 30 miles up the road so quite rapid shipping )

What was the advantage of buying from Amazon DE? At the moment its more expensive pre shipping . what did you pay?

and how come on Amazon.de you can get
http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00AW8TCSG/ref=noref?ie=UTF8&psc=1&s=ce-de
but you cant get that from Amazon UK
I do sort of refuse to part with £50 for a charger though. It seems crazy! I struggled to part with £30 for the other one above off ebay.

Key advantage when I ordered was that they had it on sale... A-UK didn't even have one listed (any... Not just the Zens)
I've got a Maxell Air Voltage one. It only comes with a mains cable, but works well. I stick it on there over night and then in the morning just pick it up and go. It's about £40 so a bit more expensive than the eBay ones, but it works for me.
I have just ordered this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221166419716?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2648 It seems to be a good price. I will let you know how I get on when it arrives.
If it was me and I was going to spend £40 on a wireless charger and couldn't get the Google Orb one, I'd get the Nokia one. Think it looks coolest.

I'm gonna order one but the black is out of stock.
Might just get the white one.
so I went for the £28 one from Ebay. £30 delivered. Its from a guy in the UK who must be importing them from China in bulk.
Its pretty good so far. It uses a 2A 5V USB charger cable. I tried it on my 700mA samsung charger cable and this wasnt really enough to get the connection stable.
It is extreemly slidey - the surface it lays on must be flat as a pancake.
It has a little green led to say it is on and a blue one to say it is charging that flashes.
I doubt I would want this as a bed-side charger.
The car doesnt also offer enough juice to charge using this. Perhaps 1A isnt enough?
Im pretty chuffed for £30. I couldnt ask for more. Ill buy the official one when it comes out as I do want a bed-side charger.
I have noticed it gets very warm. I guess this was to be expected. It is a bit of a novelty, I suppose I would prefer it if this had some kind of small cradle to hold the phone within, and it would be nicer if it was black too.
I might try to mod it slightly, paint it black and put some small mounting pegs on it perhaps?
Who knows...

It's pretty nice. I love the keys. You can do everything on the tab via keys without touching the screen. I have it connected to a usb port on my monitor and it charges the tab pretty fast. HH was selling it for $80 before the clearance.

Yes it has, but no cable inside (at least mine).
got mine and will be picking it up today. To bad keyboard is gone, I'd like to have had one just to try.
I'm gonna go pick up my dock today, but also noticed the keyboard is on clearance, so I may pick that up as well, even though I have the Logitech keyboard. I'd probably get the microSD adapter too, but I don't think I'd ever use it.
Just walked into my local HH Gregg to pick up the desktop dock I ordered online for $4.95... They had the desktop dock marked down to $0.95 and the keyboard dock for $9.95.
Score!
I checked the website for it. Their search algorithm is pretty abysmal, for what it's worth.
Here is is:

Mine sits uncharged. It would disconnect without notice (a vibrate upon disconnect would be nice) and would die faster than my phone. Oh well. Nice idea, but kind of worthless. Can't wait until the motoactvs are cheap

oh man that looks cool. the "special" cable is a huge turn off I hope they can switch to a standard micro usb for charging but my pre order for an orange one is in.
VERY neat.
AVOID the live view. I bought 3 ($8 a pop) and regretted it. they collect dust now. WONDERFUL concept but they simply WILL NOT stay connected. period. I have NEVER been able to get one to stay connected for more than a couple hours. most times less than that. amazing concept horrible execution and the damned thing can't even be CHARGED while in the watch cradle so you have to pry it out daily (how long would that last)
I was going to rivet the backing place to the watch band so I could remove the bottom band pin (allowing it to charge while in the cradle) but its so horrible in operation I never bothered.
I bought two still didn't get mine....anyone receive there's I want to play already

Well thankfully its not an iPhone 5 and the cable isn't $20. I don't need any of that to have a functional phone, I can get my choice of screen protector and case which are cheap.

Gotta give us more information then that, like duration of your ownership (1 month, two months?), original charger, and what's the internal storage (16GB or 32GB).
In general, if you knock off $100-$150 off the original sale price, you can find some buyers ("fair" pricing might be lower based on the device's actual conditions, but I've usually found buyers by doing that). Heck, $50 off has worked for me.
