- What's the fastest way to charge your iPhone
or a new iPhone or another android device?
I have the answer.
And it's on sale.
And it's coming right up.

Hi, I'm the YouTube Deal Guy, Matt Granite
and I am so fed up with bad chargers.
It's really aggravating, right?
I mean your phone can do everything.
But you need to keep it charged throughout the day,
because it doesn't seem to matter
what new features and battery life manufacturers promise,
the darn thing just needs to be charged every three seconds.
For me, I'm capturing a lot of new action
with my beautiful baby girl.
And one of the things that I've realized
is not all chargers are created equal.
And I got a lot of questions about people
asking for the best fast charger,
wireless charger, QI charger.
I'm going to answer all of those questions right now.
There's a link located right under the video screen
and those links that I have right there will
always send you toward the best deals.
Let's take a look first at the Mophie Wireless Charging Pad,
which is actually optimized for Apple.
The Mophie Charging Pad uses the latest
QI wireless technology,
and this is actually one of the only chargers on the market
where, through a collaboration with Apple,
Mophie has developed a very fast wireless charging standard.
It's Apple optimized.
So this works for the iPhone, the iPhone XS, the iPhone 8,
the iPhone 8+, iPhone XR.
This gives you one of the fastest charges
at 7.5 watts fast charging,
which means 50% faster than standard wireless chargers.
It's awesome.
Charges on contact, and I'm going to show you right now
how this is different from some of the other
chargers available on the market.
So these are three of the typical chargers
that you will see, and they all come differently.
You'll notice the Mophie actually comes with
it's own power adapter.
So, it's not one of those cheap ones.
For this RAVPower, you do not get a plug outlet.
So, you take their Micro USB cable
and you have to have a charger to plug it into,
or you can plug it into a power bar,
which is what I'm going to do right now,
as I show you the difference.
So, that's one.
The second design, which accommodates
the Apple Watch as well,
or you just see some of these
typically built for the iPhone,
has the lightning connector,
or in this case just another USB connector,
tied to the device itself.
Which for very, very weak cables is problematic
because this now is almost a fire hazard.
It looks like the manufacturer actually used
some type of protective tape,
which is alarming,
but this is one of the prominent wireless charging systems
on the market, and I'm just not a big fan.
I'm going to show you the sensitvity now
tied to all three of these.
So let's start with the RAVPower.
Charges pretty much where it needs to be.
But you'll notice right now it's not actually charging.
I have it on the way it's supposed to be
and unless I move it right on to the contacts,
let's try this.
This is what I run into all the time.
Here we go, c'mon, let's charge.
Let's try it again.
There we are.
It's charging.
It's very, very sensitive.
So, it's a good system.
It charges quite quickly,
but if you don't position this exactly
the way it needs to be positioned,
it's not going to charge effectively.
The second charge right here,
let's put this on here,
again same problem.
There it's charging right,
so it's very, very sensitive to how it's positioned.
And yes, this is great,
'cause you can charge and Apple Watch too,
but if these are not lined up carefully,
they're not going to charge.
And again you see a little crevice for the Apple Watch.
The Mophie,
and if you guys hear my daughter in the background,
she's just chilling in a chair right now,
I'm babysitting.
I guess you're not babysitting if it's your own daughter,
but anyhow,
the Mohpie, it doesn't really matter how you put this on.
It's going to charge no matter what.
It's just built better.
You can see it's always charging.
Keep moving it around,
it's always charging.
So, how the wireless charge contacts are distributed
in a $40 product versus a $15 or a $18 product,
you are going to notice a difference.
And of all of them this is the fastest charging.
So it does make a big difference.
I should also mention many Android devices,
and I've been an Android guy my whole life,
including the Galaxy S9, S8, S87, S7, Edge 7,
whatever it is will charge very well on
these wireless charging pads.
Apple devices will charge at a different speed
because based on firmware they have maxed out,
but I'm telling you this is the type of product that works
for so many different people.
So if you want to score the Mophie deal right now,
and you can see that not all chargers are created equal,
especially on the wireless line of products,
expand the vide descriptioin box right under me.
There you'll find everything you need.
We had a crying baby in the background
so we actually had to stop our video,
but Mara's good.
Wanna say hi to everyone?
I don't know if some of you guys have noticed,
but I work at home, so a lot of the time -
Was that fun?
A lot of the time there's a baby in the background,
so I apologize.
Thank you for being patient with me.
I'm sure a lot of you have kids,
and you know exactly what this is like.
We're good.
The deal that you can find,
again is at it's lowest recorded price.
There'll be a couple more reductions tied to this
closer to Black Friday.
Thank you for watching!
