The upper part of the charger on which the phone is placed has a smooth silicon layer. The soft silicone gives it a smooth touch but also has the perfect grip, so your phone doesn't slip from it.
Aesthetics
Well, if you start listing down the pros of the new Huawei wireless charger, then you cannot resist starting with the aesthetic of this new wireless charger. It is one of the smallest and compact wireless chargers which you'll find in the market.
Its design is so sleek and a sort of invisible that if you place the Huawei Mate 20 Pro on it, then it'll completely hide the wireless charger surface. It has a premium look which makes it a treat for your eyes to look at.
The silicon surface doesn't only give it a sleek fine finish and look but also makes it scratch proof. Yes, you heard it right the new wireless charger is scratch-free. This means that the look of the charger will stay new forever. The silicon body will save your phone from getting any sort of scratches.
Another advantage that is felt with the silicon material which is used in the wireless charger is that it has made cleaning so much easier. You can simply clean the dirt from the white surface, unlike the old wired chargers.
This cleaning advantage is a blessing in disguise for the users because the charger is something that easily gets dirty quite often but you don't have to worry about it anymore with this new wireless charger. It is advised to clean the charger with a damped cloth to have the best results and because it doesn't carry any IP rating.
Charging
It is the fastest wireless charger in the market till date. Through the experiments conducted in the Huawei's lab and then proved by many other people while reviewing the wireless charger.
It was observed that the 15W output of Huawei wireless charger made your phone get charged from 0 to 100% in just 2hr 40 minutes which is quite impressive and gives you 31% charging in 30 minutes.
The claim of being the fastest wireless charger in the market was fulfilled when the other 7.5W wireless charger only gave 16% battery charge in 30 minutes and when the phone is charged with a wired cable the results showed that the phone was charged 24% in 30 minutes with a 10W charging wire.
The Huawei wireless charger can charge through non-metallic covers as well, so you don't have to remove the phone cases before charging your phones. Note that it only charges through non-metallic cases which are thinner than 5mm.

The Cons Of The Pro
The Positioning Of The LED Indicator
One of the basic drawbacks of Huawei's wireless charger is that the LED light of the charger which indicates the charging is placed at the underside of the front of the wireless charger this makes it difficult to see the light.
The LED light blinks when the phone is not properly placed on the surface or when any sort of connectivity issue is faced. But because of the displacement of the light, it becomes quite challenging to figure it out.
Many people complained that due to this misplacement of light when they came out to check out their phone after hours, they figured out that the phone was not charging because it was not placed on the right angle. This could have been overcome if the LED light was placed at the right place to identify it at the start.
Wall Adapter
Another drawback that is observed is that the Huawei wireless charger misses on the basic component which any wireless charger should have; it is the wall adapter. You cannot find the adapter inside the box and need to purchase it separately from the market to get it into work.
However, this isn't that big deal because any certified fast charging wall adapter from QC 3.0 will work great with it. But still spending some extra money on such basic component make the buyers a bit unhappy.
Charging
Although Huawei tried it's best to narrow down the gap between wired and wireless charging, it still has to go a long way. This is because the wired charger which comes along charges the phone in mainly an Hour ( 1 hour).
On the other hand, the wireless charger takes about 2.5 hours to charge the phone completely. The company needs to improve the charging speed even more though it is the fastest wireless charger in the market to date.
Huawei wireless charger will optimally work with a 40W fast charging wall adapter which comes along the flagship smartphone. It works the best only with the Huawei Mate 20 Pro till now.
Thinking Whether To Buy Huawei's Wireless Charger Or Not?
Well, if you have the Huawei Mate 20 Pro, then this is the only best solution for your charging problems because of its compact, smart and sleek design you can easily carry it around.
Moreover, it gives the best compatibility with the Huawei Mate 20 Pro because it has all the necessary utensils along with a 40W wall adapter.
However, if you want to buy it for another phone which supports wireless charging, then it won't be a wise decision. This is because it has all the elite and new features that no other phone can go along with.
It is specially designed for Huawei and should only be used with Huawei phones which support wireless charging. Other than that it'll be like you driving Ferrari in Pakistan.
