    So, this just arrived today. Not too bad, charges up the VZW Z30 at a pretty good speed and works through the OtterBox case I bought. It's only 9.99 so if anyone else has been wanting one... Here's a cheap option. Doesn't include a power adapter.

    PowerBot� PB1020 Qi Enabled Wireless Charger Inductive Charging Pad Station for All Qi Standard Compatible Devices Including Samsung, iPhone, Nokia, Google, Nexus, LG, HTC and Other Smartphones with Receivers (AC Adapter Excluded. 2 x Micro USB Cable

    How is it compatible with iPhone? IPhones AFAIK don't have wireless charging capabilities

    BTW Op, it's wireless charging, not wifi charging

    Unfortunately not.
    So far only the Verizon variant of the Z30 is the only BB10 device natively capable of wireless charging

    I didn't say "wifi" in my post... what are you talking about?

    I suppose you could use it with an iPhone using a special case or third party receiver that sells for a few bucks. You can add the capability to the Z10 or any other phone with a third party receiver, just mind the location of the USB connector when buying it.

    Yes, original title had "wifi charger" in it. I changed it to Wi-Fi charger and added "Qi" as well since that's the wireless charging standard.

    No biggie, I think we can all move on...

    Yes I see the same.
    Towards bottom you can see a refurbished unit is $9.99. Maybe the OP meant this one, or maybe the sale price just went up from $10 to $15 for a new one.

    Your Z30 does not support this.

    Z30STA100-3 is the only model that has the hardware for wireless charging

    You can possibly use a third party receiver if you want to add the ability to use this. They usually cost a few dollars and plug into the micro USB port. Usually they can be hidden under the back cover or between the back of the phone and a case.
