Add Qi charging to a Galaxy S4

I'm a big fan of wireless charging and this replacement back fits perfectly on the Samsung Galaxy S4 and adds that capability. I have used it on my genuine Samsung charging pad and on some third -party Qi charging pads and it works perfectly every time. The charging time is slightly longer, but that is a small price to pay for the added convenience.
Pros: Durable, Lightweight, matches the phone
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Idea, execution falls short...

I installed the charging cover on my new s5. The cover works as advertised, other than adding a little bulk to the phone. The problem arises when you place the phone on the charging base, you get a message on the screen stating the phone is connected to a wireless charger - still good. The message disappears, but periodically reappears during the charging process along with an annoying notification beep. The charge is a bit slower than using the supplied USB cable. The convenience is great, the erratic screen notification and annoying beep is NOT worth the extra cost.
Cons: Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Perfection!

This charging cover for the Galaxy S5 is great! It barely adds any thickness to the phone and it looks exactly like the original back panel. I could still fit the phone into my Tech21 cover. Obviously, it took a few seconds longer to slip it into the Tech21 cover, but well worth the effort! The exterior buttons still perform properly as well. Also, best of all, the phone still charges wirelessly through the added cover! That was my main worry pre-order. A lot of fussing from other reviewers almost stopped me from purchasing this wireless charging cover and the Samsung charging pad. I am so happy I made the decision to try them! They work PERFECT together!
Pros: Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, smart!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Case DOES FIT over charging cover!

I had a charging cover on my S-4 and was disappointed reading the other reviews because I need a protective case over my S-5. I almost didn't by this charging cover because of the negative review comments about it being too thick to utilize protective cases. I took a chance and finally got the cover after twice being postponed by out-of-stock notices.
I am so glad I did. The cover works perfectly with my clear plastic Tech21 protective case (model T21-4008). I am able to use the charging base unit from my S-4 with absolutely no problem charging through the Tech21 protective case. The case has a tight and effective fit to the S-5, and has saved the phone from several impacts.
Don't listen to the nay-sayers. This charging back is a pleasant and convenient addition to an exceptional phone.
Pros: Inexpensive, matches stock back cover
Cons: none
I would recommend this to a friend!

Just what I was waiting for

While it does add to the thickness, a bit, I'm not planning on putting it into a case so that is not an issue for me. I do very much like being able to put it down on the charging pad and not having to keep popping out the USB cover. I think that after a while, that would cause water resistant issues. I synch wirelessly, so I am very happy.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love my phone, live my LifeProof case over my phone...
Not happy that I can't use both ..
The charging cover is too thick and thus renders the LifeProof case useless...
Pros: Inexpensive, Durable
Cons: Too big
I would recommend this to a friend!

Outstanding product, Works fine, – I have used this product about week. I am using with Wireless Charging Pad Mini (EP-PG900IBUSTA). I am rating 4 stars for its Design because I can’t find a fitting case in the market with this Wireless Charging Battery Cover EP-CG900IBUSTA. Otherwise I would rate this product with 5 starts.
Pros: Realistic color, user friendly, samsung official product, phone look better
Cons: slightly bigger size than the original
I would recommend this to a friend!
