The Bottom Line
This charger’s greatest asset is that it’s a simple product that works well. Sure, it’s not the cheapest fast-charging stand online, nor does it offer the most storage. But it makes up for its shortcomings with its premium build and design. Purchasing one won’t change your life; it will organize your desk and make an attractive, functional stand for your phone. If you’ve got $40 to spare and want to add a little flare to your home office setup, you shouldn’t hesitate to order one.
Our Process
Before buying Veelink’s bamboo wireless charger, I did extensive research, consulting publications like Wirecutter and Techaeris. Since the consensus was positive, I purchased the charger on Amazon with my own money and have used it every day for the past three months.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does wireless charging work?
Wireless chargers run a current through a transmitter coil, creating a magnetic field. If you bring a second coil close to this transmitter, the magnetic field that the transmitter creates generates (or induces) a current in the receiver coil embedded in your phone, earbuds, or other compatible devices.
Which smartphones are compatible with Veelink’s charger?
According to Veelink, its bamboo wireless charger is compatible with all Qi-enabled devices, including but not limited to the iPhone 14, iPhone 13, Samsung Galaxy S23, Samsung Galaxy S22, Google Pixel 7, and Google Pixel 6. That said, Veelink’s base might not be the fastest wireless charger for your phone.
Will the charger work with a case?
Yes, you do not have to remove the case to charge, as long as it is less than 5 millimeters thick. On the other hand, metal cases and PopSockets will interfere with the device’s charging.
Which cable and USB adapter plug do you need?
Veelink includes a USB-C cable, which plugs into the back of the charger. You will need to provide your own USB adapter plug, however.
