Belkin BoostCharge Wireless Charging Pad 15W vs Anker PowerWave Wireless Charging Pad
The Belkin BoostCharge is the stronger pick for most people: it charges Qi2 phones at up to 15W, ships with a USB-C cable, and carries a 2-year warranty with connected-equipment coverage. The Anker PowerWave tops out at 10W, uses an older Micro USB input, and suits older iPhones and basic Qi phones. Owners of the Belkin say it hits its rated speed, though some Samsung S24 Ultra users report slow charging. Neither is a travel charger for laptops; both are desk pads.
- Choose the Belkin BoostCharge if you have a Qi2 or recent iPhone and want the fastest wireless charging this pair offers, a USB-C cable in the box, and a longer warranty.
- Choose the Anker PowerWave if you have an older Qi phone or iPhone that caps at 7.5W or 10W and want a simple, proven pad with a long attached cable.
