Here are my thoughts in case someone is on the fence about it:
1) Price: Yes it is more expensive than others but the quality is really high here. I think it is worth it.
2) Packaging: Wow. The packaging is probably the highest quality packaging I've ever seen!
3) Pad: The charging pad is heavy - a lot more heavy than I thought it would be. You just plug it in and set your phone on it. It vibrates a little and makes a sound and then it just works - it starts charging. I didn't have a hard time positioning it just right to get it to work. You do have to center it but that is so easy to do. It's a non-issue.
4) Light: Yep there is a light that turns on when you set your phone on it. The good news is that it is very subtle. It's not bright at all. I thought the light might turn off when the phone got to 100% but it doesn't. It only turns off when the phone is removed from the charging pad. I don't think this light would bother most people at night when they are trying to sleep (having it on a nightstand). Doesn't bother me at all.
5) Charging: It charges slow. Doesn't seem slower than the original charger that came with the phone, though. It does have fast charging that will work when Apple releases the update later. Future proof!
Bottom line: The is a high quality product with a premium price tag. If you can stomach the $60, then I think you will be very happy with this product. It is so cool to just set your phone on the base and it starts to charge! No more fumbling with cords at night. Awesome.
Anyway, hope this was helpful!
