What's the best wireless charger available on Amazon?

Theres nothing on apples website to state wireless charging isn't available when the phone ships. Where are you getting this from?
Those are the only ones that support 7.5? None of the current Qi chargers offer 7.5?
Apple frequently releases iOS x.0.1 on launch day - or a couple of days after. They need to fix bugs found between the time the phones were packaged at the factory and received by the customer.
I ordered the same thing. I'm curious how this will work with a bumper case.

Anker is cheaper than "name brand here" yet they put out high quality products and their customer service is top notch. If you knew all of that then that's pretty much it.
Yep. I only buy Anker chargers and portable batteries anymore.
Pretty much this. I have multiple Anker products and haven't had an issue with any of them. When I first started using their cables I was amazed at the quality I got for the price. Their battery packs are the only ones that I use anymore.
With the Anker, you still need to buy the wall charger which is an additional $16.
Exactly!
I am also looking for a stand that outputs at least 7.5 watts. If anyone has an Amazon recommendation, please provide a link.
Also, may I be yet another person that swears by Anker products. They are the best bang for the buck.
Finally....
A question....
Since we are all new to Wireless charging....
I take it that there are no further accessories to buy in order to charge the iPhone 8 and X models on a charger? There is no additional cases or bricks to buy?
Thanks
EDIT:
Perhaps this one, but I can't find power rating on it. Also, it may need an additional charger according to one question asked

I have that arriving today. I don’t have my phone yet so I won’t be able to test it. Hopefully it supports 7.5, if not, I’ll use it as my overnight charger.

bboucher,
That's good to hear that you bought the one I was eyeing.
Did you buy the iPhone 8 or waiting for the X? I am waiting for the X.
If you did purchase the 8 and are expecting it in the next week, keep me updated as to how well this works with it.

Curious to see where you read this. Can't find anything on Google to back you up and nothing was said at the keynote to suggest a delay. All signs point to the iPhone being ready to wirelessly charge out of the box on release day.
Anyway. I'm now looking for a wireless dock, and this one:

Seems as good as any. Does anyone who has already been liberated from their charger cables have any opinions on this? I'm looking at you, Sammy owners.

I am really looking forward to your review on the charger as it will guide me towards or against purchase. Congrats on your new phone!
