Any Qi-Certified wireless charger should work, the Razer wireless charger is just a bit more fancy with Chroma lighting. You can find some pretty cheap ones from companies such as Anker on Amazon for a decent price.
hello guys,


What is wireless charging? Wireless charging is the transfer of power from a power outlet to your device, without the need for a connecting cable. It involves a power transmitting pad and a receiver, sometimes in the form of a case attached to a mobile device or built into the phone itself.7 days ago


thanks and regards
You can use any Qi, but almost all car Qi or stand qi chargers will not line up without propping phone up about an inch.
Anybody else having issues with bluetooth not pairing with the wireless charger with the latest build?

The struggle is real.

Enabling the connection after putting the RP2 on thet charger never works. And forgetting the device to force a fresh repair makes matters worse in that it won't even recognize the charger's existence.

According to one of the reviews I viewed researching this phone, as you will notice when you try to wirelessly charge this phone, is that charge area is on the bottom quarter of the phone. It is not balanced in the center of the phone. Therefore, most Qi chargers which are smaller and designed to balance the phone in its center will not work. This phone will inevitably slide off and quit charging.

You can get a larger charger e.g. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078MKF7Y8

Also, car wireless docks will probably not align themselves properly for this phone e.g. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079L4TRW1

Otherwise then there hasn't been an issue. They have accepted a rapid charge when I manually lined them up but they would not be able to passively charge without something rigging them to alignment.

I hope this helps anyone curious about the wireless charging capabilities of the phone.
