so it really is a mediocre consideration. The difference was I paid $12 for a solid one vs. And I bought that because I needed a headset stand, the Qi was just a nice bonus. Only useful thing I have on my desk is a Qi-base headset stand. Razers system is built around a similar system to the Logitech G PowerPlay, but Razers taken it a step further by entirely eliminating the battery.The specialized Firefly HyperFlux mousepad. So yea - Corsair's offering seems pretty pointless to me, at no doubt an exceptional cost, when the real article for the same is basically way cheaper. Phones just don't seem to play nicely with aftermarket addons, except maybe the ones for LG designed specifically to integrate with their battery. The only Qi item I've had that worked perfectly was the Nexus 4, and that's because the coils were totally integrated.

As for the dongles, honestly, those have always been a PITA for me. If people need another qi appliance - they're far cheaper as the basic pads with the same level of functionality even if your mouse has to sit still, there's not much of a difference except for it being a pragmatic storage location.Īn acceptable qi pad runs $1.70CAD from China. I mean, it makes sense for the mouse when it needs to be recharged, but really the only reason I see to pay the extra for one of these 'true-wireless mice' is if they can charge while in use, such as with the powerplay offering from Logitech.

IMO the Qi mousepad is kind of a dolt idea.
