1Amp will work just fine, it will not charge as fast as the wall charger of course.

I would get a receiver pad, like this:

http://www.amazon.com/Docooler-Standard-Wireless-Charging-Receiver/dp/B00FTULQJU

and a Nokia DT-900, AT&T was recently selling them for $24.50, here:

http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/accessories/chargers/sku6290260.html#fbid=1c-fh4Hn973

I use a similar set up with my Note 2 and am happy. I may give the receiver linked above a try with the new Note 3 I just ordered.

On the Note 2 there is a very slight bulge in the back cover. Not enough to cause issues with cases, but it won't lay completely flat when placed on a table. The official case adds bulk and a rather use the reciever pad, not to mention it's a much more affordable option.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] MANswers:
Few posts up another member of the forum brought the QI insert the one you posted above from this seller and the ship time is over 45 days.

I brought the same qi insert from ebay with shipping time from HK for 20 days.

For a charging pad, i would rather go with a charging pad that has a larger base to firmly or evenly hold the Note 3.

I placed an order for three chargers.. for the office its a TYLT which should arrive tomorrow... and two of these..

http://www.ebay.com/itm/131015696933

The nokia charger you mentioned is good, but the base is small and you will always have to find that sweet spot on your phone by moving it around on the charger base for the charge to work. whereas in TYLT VU it has three coils, no matter how u place the phone, vertically or horizontallly it will always charge.

The other ebay ones are having larger bases which assures me that i wont knock off the phone leaving it in a non charging state cos of the smaller base charger like the noika or other round charging pads.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
Funny thing is I passed on the ebay ones because they where coming from China. It did not clearly state on Amazon that this was also coming from overseas. I might try to cancel and order from ebay.

Have you ever used the Nokia DT-900? The sweet spot thing is greatly overstated. Yeah, it should be roughly centered but unless your tossing onto the charger it not too much of an issue. if you roughly enter it is not going to fall off either. At $25 it a excellent deal on a good QI charger. I would much rather have the Nokia for $25 than the $15 ebay ones.

The Tylt has other desirable traits but I can't pay $70 for one when I was able to get three Nokia's for less than $20 each (discount for buying more than one as a Prime account holder). The T-mobile coupon with a 20% discount is tempting though. Tylt for less than $50 has get me thinking, but cash it tight at the moment.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] MANswers:
TYLT is 35 bucks with promo code fallfun30 on tmobiles website.

There are a few sellers in the US who are now carrying the QI charger and reciever for the same cost around 30 bucks for both on ebay specifically the inserts for note 3. Try searching on there.. they are at both the locations in LA and NJ, you might want to choose your location of preference.

I am also planning to cancel the order from china.. as its going to take over a month anyways. never got anything from there in two weeks... many a times i totally forget things i buy from chinese sellers and when it arrives.. i am like.. duh!! did i order this!!? :D

the 15 bucks charger of ebay is just a charger.. it should do the same job as what the nokia charger would do... except if it dies early on, reading various reviews on android central.. tons of people have brought them and none turned out to be lemon. For 15 bucks i would buy for multiple locations in the house..;)

But i still didnt mind paying for tytl cos it goes in my office where all the glits and glamour is.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] AmnNate:
How did you manage to get it down to $35? Even with the code it's still showing as $48.99 for me on T-Mo's site.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] wilflare:
man. I would love to get a cheaper TYLT.. :X

doubt there are shops that do international shipping for that piece of kit right?

EDIT:

i'm pretty tempted to give the Nokia one a try too...

I am now just waiting for it to be delivered.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
It showed up as $48 plus when I tried it last night. At $35 I would of bought one for sure.

Yeah that's not bad for $15 bucks. But I bought 3 Nokia DT-900 at a little ove $19 a piece from AT&T. Even at $25 I trust Nokia's standards and QC more.

I can understand that. Even the $48 buck from AT&T is tempting me ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] wilflare:
wonder how the Nokia DT-900 compare to my Metrans W10400

the Metrans is smaller and has a 10000mA battery built-in so you can really charge your phone wirelessly anywhere (even away from a powerpoint)
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
I'm not sure I'd consider The Metrans smaller by any means. I different for factor for sure, is more round and the Nokia is longer like a cell phone. The Metrans is a MUCH thicker. The built in 10400mAh battery does offer some advantages though.

Matrens:

http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/80441989-post12.html

here are some other but a bit smaller with 6000mAh batteries:

it's an interesting concept for sure.

---------- Post added at 01:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:40 AM ----------

Did some more searching and the Metrans with the 10400 battery was between $60 - $70 unless you bought 5 or more which brought the price down to about $45 on AliExpress.

Than I ran into this link and couldn't resist and ordered one, $43.55 with optional insurance ($1.83):

S3 with Flip View case

I received the TTYL charging stand and the Samsung Note 3 does not change with the flip view case or the OEM case that came with the note 3.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] neoWhite:
You'll need a 3rd party Qi Receiver or one of Samsung's official Wireless back covers (I believe called Wireless S Charger Back). If you don't have one of those, the phone will not charge wirelessly.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
Thanks for pointing that out. That's what happens when your up looking for stuff late at night.

I requested they cancel my order.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] KruseLudsMobile:
Verizon wireless now shows a pre order page for the wireless charging back, but no charging pad. So I can pre order something that by itself is useless. Excellent!

Does anyone know if the Samsung's wireless charging pad for the S4 is the same for the Note 3?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] gnik luap:
Edited:

This was intended to be a reply to Acaibowl asking about charging pad compatibility

The wireless charging pad is the wireless transmitter, so it will work for any Qi enabled phone. You then need a Qi wireless receiver.

There is an insert that goes inside the original phone back, or you can get a Samsung wireless back cover that looks like the original back but thicker, or an St view flip cover that has a Qi receiver built in. Be care not to get the plain S-view cover without a Qi receiver.

---------- Post added at 10:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:00 PM ----------

The Qi insert for the Note 3 is NOT identical to the one that works in the older phones, the contacts are on the wrong side, and the polarity may be different, but I'm not sure about the polarity bit.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
You could go to AT&T and get a Nokia DT-900 for $24.50 plus tax and you have a QI charger to await you wireless charging back. Not to mention a good price for a good charger.

Or you can try eBay or Amazon.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Acaibowl:
Yes but size wise...They are probably different right? Since Note 3 is taller...
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
I assume by wireless charging pad you are referring the transmitter.

The size of the device didn't matter. You just have to place the coils of the receiver over the coils of the transmitter.

My Nokia DT-900 is smaller than the Samsung charger and it charges my Note 2 and even my Nexus 7 without issue.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Kawaisa:
Does anyone know if the Nokia DT-900 is better than the Samsung wireless charger? (does it have higher output?) I'm about to pull the trigger since it's still $25
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
Both QI standard and both should be good quality.

The Nokia has an output of 750mAh and Samsung output is 1Amp. The 250mAh difference is minimal given the price difference. Not to mention the device itself probably won't accept more than either is capable of putting out.

If you buy more than one Nokia I believe you get a discount. I ordered 3 and it came out to 19 something each (though my prime account anyway). If you get the discount you could get 3 Nokia's for the price of one Samsung.

My Note 2 was charging at 466mAh with the Nokia. Garrett flashing the latest Saber kernel the Note 2 was telling me it was charging at 999mAh. Even though the Nokia states it max output is 750 mAh and the receiver pad states it max input is 650 mAh. So I'm not sure of the reading is right but it did help some. The charge rate did jump from about 8-9% per hour to about 10-11% per hour.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] wilflare:
how do you check the reading?

it's weird that a different kernel can change the charging speed
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
I know of two apps

There's an app called Galaxy charging current light by abmantis. This works with certain Galaxy devices.

Then there's an app called Battery by Macropinch.

These may not work on all devices.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] wilflare:
seems like they won't work with my Note 3 for now..

hmm my Qi Wireless Charging Pad (the one you stick to the battery)

- Input 1A

- Output 650mA

but I don't really notice a significant drop in charging speed
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Jimmy2u:
Well I use Galaxy Charging Current Pro app for my S4 for checking whether it is charging properly and at the max speed...so I tried this app for N3 but it was nt compatible...
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] gnik luap:
So the manufacturer is saying their Qi insert has 65% efficiency, the other 35% of the energy it receives is used to heat the battery/phone. Since people have measured widely varying charging rates I don't know if the numbers mean much. As long as I get an overall gain in charge (without needing to plug it in) I'll be satisfied.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] wilflare:
hmm. so that efficiency is actually pretty poor.

wonder if there are more efficient inserts...

hmm not forgetting there's efficiency factor from the wireless charger to the insert itself

which the manufacturer says is about 70% :/
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] gnik luap:
Call me cynical, but I don't believe everything the makers of these products say. I'm pretty sure a lot of the manufacturers are just reverse engineering products made by others, not spending money to design & rest their stuff.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] mychal:
The thing that keeps me from going down the wireless charging path is that all the charging surfaces seem to be flat. I want my device propped up so I can see and use the screen. The Palm Touchstone is close, but even that is closer to lying down. Any ideas for me?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] 918273645ams:

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] mychal:

---------- Post added at 12:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:06 PM ----------

I'm thinking about the magnet in the iMagnet or an upright version of that Touchstone. One handed placement. Good looking. Nothing jury-rigged.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] gnik luap:
Take a look at the Tylt Vu. It's $70 but it has 3 coils and will figure out which coil to use for best charging with any Qi ready phone/tablet you place on it.

If you have a T-mobile account I think you can find a code for 30% off. I don't know who else sells it with discounts, but it looks like a decent product.

Two possible issues: it needs about 7.5 inches of desk space, and it doesn't fold for transport.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] mychal:
Hmm, Tylt, eh? I've never heard of them, but their web site looks fascinating. I'll check them out. My first and second thought about the Vu are a) way cool looking, and b) might not be enough of an angle. But this is the closest thing I've seen so far to what I'm looking for.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] gnik luap:
I agree about the angle, but it's hard to tell from a picture. If you hear of a store that stocks them let me know.

I have seen other Tylt accessories in T-Mobile stores and maybe Verizon, but not this one.

The other way to get an upright wireless charger would be DIY. I have been keeping an eye out for a stand I can modify to hold the LG WCP-300 or a knock-off (under $20).

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] droidkevlar:
This charger is legit. I ordered it from T-Mobile with the 30% off coupon and also got free basic shipping. I could not find a local store that had it, but have a friend that has it and loves it. I had the N4 with Google Qi Charger and it worked great, but every now and then, I had to adjust it to get it to charge. With this TYLT charger, you dont have to worry about that since it has 3 charging pads in it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
There are several options.

Tylt Vu $70 ($49 from T-mobile with code FunFall30 or FallFun30)

Nokia DT-910 ($51.75 from AT&T)

The Nokia looks like the least flat charger I've seen.

---------- Post added at 01:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:29 PM ----------

Well, I got my Note 3 yesterday and list night I noticed that the NFC is built into the battery (like the S2) instead of the back cover (like the Note 2).

I'm assuming a wireless receiver pad would interfere with NFC. Can anyone confirm this, I haven't received mine yet.

I guess this is one way to get people to buy OEM batteries and wireless charging covers. I guess I'm gogin to have to get a bulkier back cover for QI charging.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] mychal:
That Nokia looks interesting...now I have to convince myself that only 750 mAh will do the trick, and that there are simple enough cases around that fit the charging back.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
as it stands now no matter what the charger output is the Note 3 will charge at under ther 750mAh of the Nokia. The charging rate is limited by the device.

Perhaps a custom kernel may be able to up the charging rate.

Palm Touchstone

I've seen a few references to the Palm Touchstone in this thread.

We own six (?!) Palm Touchstones. Has anyone verified that the Note 3 can be charged with the Palm Touchstone?

One more thing: wireless charging of a phone is the bomb, folks. Trust me. If you have any doubts about it, spend the money and try it out.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
No, the Palm Touchstone is not QI compatible. It will not work with any QI compatible device.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] KruseLudsMobile:
Guess what?!? I called Tiger Direct and asked them if the pad was in stock. They said they actually do not know, they send the order to Samsung who ships them out for them (drop shipping)! She did not know I had an order - so I then told her I had already ordered it and wanted to cancel. I then called Samsung and at first I was told they did not have it in stock. Then they said they had only the pads but not the charging covers (they thought I wanted a cover). It turns out they do have the pads in stock so I ordered two of them. The pad is not shown as an accessory for the Note 3 on the samsung website but as an accessory for the Galaxy S4, but they sell the same pad for both phones. When you buy the charging "kit" which includes the pad and the phone cover the box will show on the front "for note3" or "for S4" on the cover, but the only difference between both kits is the phone cover that is included in the box and the printing on the front of the box (same pad). This pad DOES come with the stronger 2 Amp plug and cord. You can find it on the samsung website but it is their product ID # EP-P100IJWUST2, and the phone number for orders is 800-757-0280. Even if it is in stock at Samsung and you order it from TigerDirect, you introduce a 2 day delay in getting the thing shipped. Currently, Samsung is out of the charging covers but Verizon does have them and they ship very fast. I put my order in for the cover this morning and they already emailed me a tracking number. I just also got the order confirmation email from Samsung as well... yeeesssss

Hope this helps!

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] illogic6:
I ordered these with a pre-paid Visa gift card, cut it up and threw it away. If they issue a refund, it'll go to some card I don't even have anymore. I've learned my lesson to not do that again...
