Great deal but I will pass on it. 1A charging, not IP68 and the case itself doesn't charge wirelessly.
Unless you remove it from the phone you can't wireless charge the phone with the case on :disappointed:

2700 mAh and yes, it charges wirelessly.

Also means you can't use NFC / Android Pay so no use for me :disappointed:
Mind you my battery is still in good nick at the moment but guess I'll be carrying a power bank round in the future haha

I am sure you can get a new battery swapped at that time.

lol funny how the site doesnt give any sideway shots of the item. Dont buy it unless you want a 90s thick phone.

Product not found or is not available in this region.
Dude this product is the worse battery pack I ever purchased. It takes forever to charge the device itself, and to charge the phone it doesn't have quick charge which means takes about 4-6 hours to charge the actual phone using this cover.
Tempting price reduction but better purchasing a Quickcharge powerbank such as this one from amazon for £25.99. CLICK HERE. What you lose from the simplicity of the backpack case, you more than gain by superfast charging, can be used on almost any usb device, sufficient for three full charges of the S7 and no need to remove the S7's regular case. The backpack case is a decent deal though if it floats your boat, so heat added.

it is quite big but most battery cases worth having are. I haven't tried mine wirelessly but hears that a proper base charger can but cheap copies can't

I have this one for S7 Edge, purchased brand new from Samsung. Charges only 20-25% so I take it its faulty?

Mine came today, ordered a couple of days ago, not sure its charging right, left it 5 hrs, phone not on it, and only 1 light is lit, and 1 flashing, other 2 not lit.
Opening post
Very good buys at this price (£29 / £31 respectively).

A bunch of other accessories are reduced too, no doubt in anticipation of the S8.

How can Samsung promote this so badly, assume it charges the phone by wireless?
