LG Charging Orb for the Nexus 5 available now

     

One attribute of the Nexus 5 that hasn’t been talked about a lot is that, like the Nexus 4, this phone includes built-in wireless charging support. That means that all wireless chargers of the Qi (pronounced ‘chee’) standard will work, including the official wireless charger that LG introduced with the Nexus 4. Let’s take a look at this Nexus 5 wireless charger and see why we recommend it so highly!

Wireless Charging

So the obvious answer is that this wireless charger does just what it says on the tin – it charges the Nexus 5 quickly and easily. Just place the Nexus 5 on the orb, and you’ll get rapid 1A charging that will keep your Nexus topped up. This convenience in charging makes it much less likely that you will forget to recharge your phone – all you have to do is place it onto the orb and you’re ready to go.

The wireless charging works through the slimmest cases, but for others you’ll need to take off your case. For that reason, we recommend using a screen protector in lieu of a thick case if you want to maximise the utility of this Nexus 5 charger.

Stand

The other nice feature of the wireless charging orb is that it holds your Nexus 5 at a convenient slant, making it easy to see incoming notifications, write messages and surf the web. The Nexus 5 can be used in both landscape and portrait mode, with the sticky pad on the charger preventing the phone from sliding off the incline. Overall, quite handy if you have issues missing incoming notifications because your phone is on its back and far away.

Conclusion

The LG Nexus 5 charging orb is a top-notch product, a first-party accessory that you’ll be pleased to own. For more information or to order your own, check out the product page linked below. Thanks for reading the article and have a good one!
