Good upgrade over old Jeda charger, works with AirPods, incorrect information on box
I got this to replace my original 2018 Jeda charging pad. Overall it's solid upgrade that addresses all of my gripes with the old Jeda pad.The good:- it works with my QuickCharge 3.0 outlet and draws 12V power and outputs at least 10W (I only have iPhone limited to 7.5W so I can't confirm if the pad can output 15W as advertised)- it can charge AirPods unlike the old Jeda pad- it has better range than the old Jeda pad. It can charge through a Popsocket, though I wouldn't recommend that- solid build, non-slip surface that is superior to old Jeda pad, though I worry the finish might not be as durable- horizontal charger is a nice addition, especially for AirPods- the shelf is large enough to hold phones even with a Popsocket base and caseOther observations- I wish the middle divider was a little taller- box says it can only draw 9V and output 10W despite advertising that it outputs 15W. I know it can draw 12V, though I can't confirm it can output more than 10W- the horizontal charger is connected to the left charger so both cannot be used at the same time. The horizontal charger can be used at the same time as the right charger, BUT you must put on a device on the horizontal charger first before the right charger. If you put a device on the right charger first, the horizontal charger won't turn on.

Great fit and functional
Easy to install, quality material. Traditional USB plug with splitters included. Side by side QI for smaller phones, horizontal QI charge for large phones with big cases. Doesn't interfere with opening and can even fit closing cover with phone in charge position depending on your case. Will shut off when not in use or when car is powered off to avoid draining low voltage battery.

Works great!
Install is super easy the the quality of the charger is great! It charges new decently quick. The only reason I didn’t give it a 5 star is because of you leave it plugged in while the car is off, it will leach about 1% battery every hour or so. I don’t know if this issue is specific to me or it happens to everyone. So in order to avoid this, I just plug it in when using and unplug when not. Still useful when not plugged in as it still holds phones nicely.

Great wireless charger, looks like it came from the factory.
The charging situation for older Tesla Model 3s is not good. Half the time, the phone won't plug in and you won't notice you aren't charging. With Taptes, I almost always get a charge. It takes 30 minutes for a 10% charge, which is not the fastest charge, but it just works and is so easy to use compared to Tesla's cables. I'm never going back to the cables. I like the charge indicator light, but I have to use the passenger side charge to see it which is a nice workaround. 5/5, would buy this again every time.

Fits a large phone and works well.
Didn't know if it would fit my Galaxy S24 Ultra in an Otterbox Defender case for my 2018 Model 3 but it absolutely does as long as I lay the phone horizontally, the phone with the case is too tall to stand vertically. Charging seems instantaneous and precise whenever I lay down the phone. Fit of the charging mat and wiring is perfect (looks as if Tesla installed it at the factory) and super easy to hookup. Im a stickler when it comes to aesthetics and perfection. HIGHLY recommended!Update: It's several weeks later and for some unknown reason my phone only charges about 25% of the time now when on the pad. Most of the time the charge level remains the same or even drops while it is charging.

Works but not really.
I recently purchased the TAPTES Tesla Model 3 Wireless Charger with high hopes of reducing cable clutter and keeping my devices charged while on the road. While it has some positive aspects, it falls short in certain areas, leaving me with mixed feelings about its overall performance.**Pros:**1. **Convenient for AirPods:** The TAPTES wireless charger is a great solution for keeping my AirPods charged and easily accessible while driving. The design of the charger allows for secure storage and efficient charging of these wireless earbuds.2. **Neat and Clutter-Free:** The charger neatly integrates into the Tesla Model 3 interior, reducing the need for tangled cables and clutter in the car. It adds a touch of sophistication to the interior, which is appreciated.**Cons:**1. **Inadequate Phone Charging:** Unfortunately, the wireless charger's primary purpose—to charge a smartphone—leaves much to be desired. Even after removing my phone case for the best signal reception, the charger struggles to provide adequate power for my iPhone. After an hour of highway driving, my phone actually loses power, which is both inconvenient and frustrating. This is a significant shortcoming, considering that many users rely on their phones for navigation and communication while on the road.2. **Limited Charging Power:** The primary issue appears to be the charger's insufficient power output for smartphones. It's puzzling why TAPTES didn't design the charger to provide a more robust charge for mobile devices. In today's world, where phones are an essential part of our daily lives, this limitation is a significant drawback.3. **Inconsistent Wireless Charging:** Some users have reported issues with the wireless charging functionality, which can lead to frustrating experiences when the charger fails to connect properly with your devices.In conclusion, the TAPTES Tesla Model 3 Wireless Charger has its merits, particularly when it comes to keeping your AirPods charged and maintaining a clean, organized interior in your Tesla Model 3. However, its inability to provide sufficient power for smartphone charging, even with the case removed, is a notable letdown. It's a perplexing choice on TAPTES' part not to offer more power for phone charging, especially when the charger's primary purpose should be to keep your mobile devices charged during your journeys. While it's a step in the right direction for in-car wireless charging, improvements are needed for it to become a reliable and essential accessory for Tesla owners.

Looks like it was built into the car
Easily charges two phones at once. Five minute install on our 2018 Model 3.

It sucks, don't buy
Look, if the thing worked to charge my phone efficiently I'd have nothing but positive things to say about it but it doesn't and it's embarrassing to have this equipment installed in my car. It's completely non-functional.
