This is specific to our AT&T model, though i'm sure they are universal across all S5 models. Filter on the left side for the chargers.

Wireless Charging Pad mini $39.99

Wireless Charging Pad $59.99

Galaxy S 5 Spare Battery Charging System $49.99

Galaxy S 5 Wireless Charging Cover, White $29.99 (Also available in Black it says)

Most important thing of course we ALL want to know with these Qi-charging covers are: "The Wireless Battery Cover was designed by Samsung to seamlessly match the look and feel of your Galaxy S 5 ensuring that your phone maintains its original style and slim profile. In addition, Samsung has incorporated sealing rubber into the battery cover to retain the Galaxy S 5’s water resistance."

Please sticky this at least for the first quarter as it is a list of the Official products.

Im hoping this little line in their description means that the wireless back wont add too much to the phone to prevent the use of normal cases.

Here's the link to the black wireless back, just needed to change the W to a B in the product number =)

We need to know if it adds bulk and if standard cases can be used. I have a QI charging pad that I use with an insert in my S3. I'm guessing my charging pad will work with this back?

Wonder if they will have any price drops or a coupon code to score these cheaper. I might have to go w/the insert if the covers add bulk.

only problem with that is it the gasket to seal the battery from water might be loose....

True. The nillkin one I installed on my s4 created a pretty noticeable bulge with the battery cover

Damn, didn't think of that. I hope some company takes that into consideration. Sammy should have made wireless charging standard on this phone but it looks like they want to make more off of accessories.

Sweet! Thanks, I added my info to the backorder log. Can't wait!

Yep. Another money making ploy. If the nexus 7 can do it, Samsung could certainly do it.

Problem is, even the thinnest wireless adapter creates somewhat of a bulge, which could ruin the water resistant seal

If samsung starts making them standard out of the box, then it's standard size and any case will fit, even the water resistant seal.

so there won't be people asking questions, will this bulge or will this case fit as with the S3, S4, note 2 and note 3. but as usual it will never happen with samsung at present, may be in the near future.

Acaibowl · Apr 5, 2014

Like the Note 3, with the wireless charger you won't see the bump where the camera lens are. It will be flat which is a good thing for me.

nba1341 · Apr 6, 2014

Hello does anybody know if the s5 wireless charging cover adds thickness like the s4 one did? As in cases wont fit?

ewokuk · Apr 7, 2014

am I missing something here or have people simply not read the description?

Yes. Most places will have them on the 11th. Check amazon, mobile fun and usual places.

words matter

The problem is that "original style and slim profile" is inexact and open to interpretation. Proper wording would be helpful. Something like "original style and exact form factor" or "identical physical specification" or even ""will not affect fitment with standard phone cases"....words matter.

Airax · Apr 7, 2014

Any one want to put money the wireless charging case will be thicker? There has to be some extra depth to accommodate the charging coil. On the standard back I can't see Samsung deliberately make back thick so it lines up with the wireless one.

I agree 100%.
