Ladies and Gents,

Which is the best wireless charger for the iPhone X? I am not asking which is the best value for money or which is the cheapest. I am simply asking which wireless charger currently on the market is the best one out there for the X. Money being no object.

I am debating between Mophie or Belkin or Samsung

Okay, ready..set...go
 
There’s a very long thread in the accessories forum on this. FWIW, I bought the Belkin charger and it works fine with my X and my Galaxy S7.
 
The chargers with 3 coils are nice as placement isn't nearly as fussy.

I have a few of the Choetech T513's, but they only support 5w charging. But having them more readily available, the iPhone shouldn't get to lower %'s of charge available, so recovery is shorter.

Edit: Hmm. The newest revision of the T513 that just arrived today just might support the X's fast-charging (even though Choetech said, explicitly, that these wouldn't). The new unit has stencilled on the back "Output: 5W (standard), 7.5W(Max)" - So, provided you're giving it at least 10W (5V@2A) input, this just may support fast charging.

We'll have to see when 11.2 ships in early December (unless it's enabled in the beta before then).

The best one will be AirPower which Apple will release ad it is the ultimate best wireless charger. As you know, Apple products are always top products. If you can wait for it, just wait.

Thanks mate, but I am wanting to purchase one today, not wait until next year. Which is the best today?

I know but everyone was chiming in as to which charger they had, not which is the best.
 
I haven't heard anything bad about the Anker 10w charger.

Presumably this is it: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KJL4XNY/

The good thing is, 10w future proof's it a bit (provided Apple stays with the Qi standard for a bit). So it would come in handy for devices which may support an even faster charging rate due to a larger battery (maybe the next iPad?)

Long term, I don't think Qi will survive....it will be something over the air such as Energous....but we should get a few years out of them.
