Customer Reviews for Belkin - Refurbished Excellent - Boost Up Wireless Charging Dock for iPhone and Apple Watch - White

Verified Purchase:Yes
The watch part rarely synched and when it did it didn't charge. I sent it back but have still not received the replacement. Very disappointing when buying from a name brand manufacturer.

Hello, Garybl,
The Belkin F8J235 should work fine with Apple watches on the watch charging pad, and if your device has a case on it, you may try removing it and see if there are any changes. Allow us to check on your request by sending us an email with your case number or phone number so we can pull up your record, and the link of this review, for our reference, via BelkinCares@belkin.com.

I love how it charges both my iPhone 11 Pro and my Apple Watch series 3. It is simple and looks great on my night stand. I especially love how I don’t have to plug in my phone but just set it on the charger. I highly recommend!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

i just bought BOOST Up wireless charger from Best Buy on 4-7-19.
i got it to charge my 8+ and my watch. i read the previous reviews and should have took notice but i didnt.
1) there is a high pitched sound while it is charging my phone (this is the reaccuring theme in all of the reviews).
2) whn i removed my phone from the charging dock, the back of my phone was extremely hot.
it charges my watch with no problem. but unfortunately, i will b returning it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Overall Nice Look

I purchased and received this charging dock yesterday. I bought this because it would be a perfect single wireless charging unit (not multiple chargers) for my iPhone 8 (with battery case) and my Apple Watch, series 4. It is a simple, elegant design with an extra usb to charge a 3rd device, if needed. I could not wait to try it out. I placed my Apple Watch on the charger and it worked perfectly. I then placed the iPhone 8 (with battery case) on the charger and it kept cycling back and forth between charging and not charging, emitting a ding every couple seconds. My first thought was great, now I have to send this back and begin my search for a "good" dock all over again. Right before I was going to box it back up, I thought, what if I tried moving the phone up and down. I tried a couple different heights, and if I raised the phone 1/2", it charged perfectly. I then looked to see if the phone charger stand was adjustable, it was not. I then tried to find something white, as to have it blend in with the dock, to permanently leave on the dock so I could use it to raise the phone height when charging. I tried a couple of items, but it did not look clean. I then remembered, the foam packing in the box the dock came in. It was exactly the right height (1/2"). So I cut a piece of that off, made sure it was the correct length and applied it to the dock. What makes this nice is that there is already adhesive on this foam. I tried it out again and the wireless charge now works flawlessly, and the foam blends right in. Not 100% happy with it, but it works. If the dock would have been made adjustable at the factory, that would solve the issue I ran into.

Hi sccnyy23,
Our Belkin Boost Up Wireless Charging Dock is engineered to work with most plastic cases up to 3mm. It might help if you'll remove the case on your phone and make sure that no metals are placed between the phone and the charger.
For further queries or assistance, send us an email at BelkinCares@belkin.com with your contact details and the link to this review for our reference.

I bought this charger today, however when I put my iPhone XR and my series 3 charging it makes an annoying sound.
I would like to know if I could do something to stop that noise.

Met all my expectations and then some!

I've had my Boost Up for 2 weeks. I'll start with how beautifully designed this charger is. It's simple yet very beautiful and looks very nice on the nightstand. My iPhone X has the Apple leather case and the phone charges perfectly. I love the "stand up" position the phone is in as I've found a great digital "Clock" app that allows me to now get rid of my old clock radio. The app slowly moves the time on the screen so there is no burn-in.
My Apple watch charges well too. I like being able to position it on the charger and it doesn't matter if the watch band is open or closed. And I charge my iPad from the USB port on the back of the unit. It's compact and beautifully functional. I did not find the power block to be excessively large, but that will always be a function of how your outlet is laid out and what else you have plugged into it. I had room since I could now remove the power block for my iPad.
In summary, this is a beautifully designed, extremely well functioning charger and I'm completely satisfied and happy with my purchase.
I would recommend this to a friend!
