Question for my Samsung wireless chargers.

I have the convertible charging stand and lately it seems to sometimes randomly blink blue. Based on what I read online it means the device may not be on the pad correctly or not supported by the phone.

The thing is the phone continues to show the lightening bolt charging and stays charged.

Has anyone experienced this? Any idea?

Also I have no case on my phone and it is laying directly on the middle of pad.
 
nope, but I would email Samsung and tell them whats up. I have experienced this with Ravpower Chargers and they have taken care of me.

I have this charger and haven’t had this issue. I’d return to amazon or just exchange with them. No need to go through the hassle of a Samsung warranty claim.

My period of exchange passed with amazon.

Weird thing is it doesn’t happen often at all. Could it be an iOS bug? It just seems weird to work 90% of time. It won’t harm battery either way right?
 
I have that issue randomly and have no idea. It always works fine on my wife S8.

Yea it’s very random. Today maybe happened once. Part of me thinks it is after apple turned on fast charge but the Samsung doesn’t support so it does that light randomly. It’s still charging my phone. I just don’t want it to mess it up.

That's funny cause I think it's only after the fast charging update this started happening to me too.
Quick question, although this charger is 10w fast charging for Samsung devices, I heard this does not work with iPhone so we're still charging at 5w right?

Yea I heard it isn’t charging faster on anything but the apple approved chargers
 
Mine just started blinking randomly as well. Not quite sure what it means but I cant replicate it. Its very random.
