Nimble is the way to go!
Nimble makes a very decent wireless charger. Here are my thoughts that span the current wireless charging pads they make and sell on Amazon (single / dual / standing style)...Pros:1) Fabric / fit and finish are great on all models, right now only one color is sold on Amazon their dark grey finish (Nimble offers a lighter grey on certain models on their web site *** please introduce a non marring black finish soon Nimble).2) Low foot print on the world with its minimalistic packaging and eco friendly materials (please Nimble, never change or deviate from this, thank you).3) Charges efficiently and includes a well built usb c style wall adapter (doesn’t look like that cheap brick you get with some competitors).Side note: to all those concerned Nimble charges can’t FAST charge two devices at once think things through, it’s an 18W power adapter supplying juice to the charger, that means if a 10W “fast charge” maximum is sent to the main device wirelessly charging (on any of their chargers) the secondary device (weather it be thru USB on some models or the secondary spot on the dual wireless charge pad) can’t receive more then 8W since the power supply is 18W max (10+8=18 do the math...). It’d be nice if Nimble could upgrade to a 20W but for now it’s clearly posted, so don’t complain in the reviews lol.4) Great customer service should you have questions, issues, or comments. Nimble has real people answering you usually within 24 hours in my experience.Now for the “Not really cons”:1) Price on most of the units Nimble makes could use roughly a 10% drop, more frequent sales, or both.2) The bright indicator light to let you know what’s happening on the unit (right next to the usb c input) is easy to see during the day but too bright at night. If your sensitive to light at night this will be hard to live with as it currently doesn’t have a night mode (Nimble please add one).3) If your thinking about buying the current model that has the stand built in from Nimble do note the little rest that pops out is very narrow and not very deep. They said an upgraded one is in the works so maybe wait on this one to go on sale or get version 2.4) This is last one is a personal gripe but currently none of Nimbles chargers support wireless charging of the AppleWatch. All but the dual wireless charging models have an extra USB port that allows for easy wired charging, but I’d be happier if Nimble’s device had built in support so one charger managed all my wireless charging needs.I do think you’ll enjoy Ninble’s various options for chargers and recommend giving them a shot, best of luck hope this helped you make a choice.

Awesome vision, but the stand don’t stand.
In short, I love the idea of this company. I also love the product itself. Awesome design, incredible materials, and what sold me was the idea of having a second USB port on the side to plug my AirPods in via a short lightning cable. Also, I LOVE wireless stands and will never go near a wireless “lay flat” pad. Even though this product is all that I could have ever dreamed of (has all the features I wanted and comes from a company that shares my core values) the stand simply doesn’t hold your phone. The little lip on the bottom that your phone rests on is less than 1/3 the width of your phone. If you don’t put your phone perfectly centered on the stand, it simply flops over to one side and falls off. Even if you use laser focus to ensure the phone is centered, it’s simply not secure. A gentle tap on either side of the phone will knock it clean off the stand. It’s really unfortunate because I really wanted to LOVE this thing. In fact, it took my wife 20 minutes to talk me out of my state of denial. But the stand just straight up isn’t designed to hold a phone. If you want a flat pad, look no further. This company is amazing, the charger works great, and is a great value. But if you’re looking into the stand version that I bought, either go with the pad instead, or look elsewhere for a wireless charging stand.

Make sure that it's the right fit for you!! Not for bigger phones..
I was so excited to receive this wireless charging stand.. To its credit, it's a great unit.. Nice look and feel.. Unfortunately, I've got a Samsung Galaxy Note 8, and it doesn't charge while the stand is standing.. It works just fine while the unit is laying flat, but I got it to function as a stand.. It's almost everything I wanted, the extra usb-a feature is outstanding.. If you have a smaller phone, I say go for it.. If you're like me, and have a bigger screen phone, I can't recommend this device, unless you are going to use it only laying flat and not as a stand.. Good luck!!As a quick addition, I've got a minimal case on my phone, and as you may have read in some other reviews, the base which holds your phone while working as a stand, is a bit on the slim side, but I was able to set my Note 8 on the stand with little issue.. But, any kind of bump to your phone or the unit will definitely result in your phone falling off the stand..

A great charger with a meh kickstand
I chose this because it was a good, economically friendly wireless charger that looked really god. If you just want a wireless charger that does the job, this charger is overpriced for that (go with one of the Samsung models if you're just looking for the cheapest one that works). However, if you want one that looks nice as well, this is a great charger. The hemp fabric on it feels great and looks distinctly modern. If I had a chance, I would have selected the lighter color but it sold out super fast on Nimble's website and wasn't offered on Amazon when I bought this.I docked a star because the kickstand is frustrating and is really sensitive to falling. Frankly, if I had an iPhone XS Max, I wouldn't be shocked if it regularly collapsed. As it is, slight nudges are enough to knock it down with my iPhone XS's weight.That said, it's great to have your phone inclined and charging, particularly with the iPhone X/XS because when a notification pops up, you can glance at it, authenticate with Face ID and see the message. I use mine at my desk all the time and it's a useful complement to my computer, especially when I'm focusing and want to check a notification without interrupting my flow.Overall, a good product that's one kickstand away from greatness.

Almost awesome, but "falls" short
This charger would be awesome if it were more stable. I have an iPhone XS Max, and half the time- setting the phone on the stand will knock it over. If I hold the stand steady, it can be difficult to balance the phone on the small shelf. Once it's in place, a light tap to wake the phone can knock it over. The charger works great, and I love the eco-friendly aspect, but unfortunately I think I'll have to use it flat and find another charger for my desk.
