So they say Watch 7 and Ultra use a new 15 watt charger. From what I see un testing, it's the same as the one for Watch 6. Am I mistaken?
Also I used to charge my Watch 6 with the Samsung Duo Wireless Charger without issues. I know it was a slower charging speed. But Samsung says not to use prior Chargers fir Watch 7 or Ultra. 🤔
Don't use the trail band much rather then thicker silicone ones. But if you say it is safe - then I will go ahead and play with the wrap around part. That would be OK. Thanks.
I never took the charger that came with my ultra out of the box just like I didn't with the GW6C 47mm. I'm still using the one that came with my GW5P but I'm going to get the unit from the ultra and see if it makes a difference.
Edit: I took it out and installed it into my Speigen watch stand and it's not doing anything that the other didn't do. Dimensionally the same as the GW5P charger so IDK. Plugged into a 35w Samsung adapter.
I just compared the GW6C charger to the W7/U and the new one has a more concave point of contact than the GW6C one. So, I think it would be best to use just the GW7/U charger for these devices.
Watch versions 4-6 support a max of 10 watt (5V X 2A) charging. The watches seem to work fine on less - the 5 Watt (5V x 1A) chargers work - the charging time is longer, since there's less power transfer. Watch 7 ships with a 15W puck type charger (5V x 3A). I compared the time till full indication the watch gives when first connecting to the charger. For my Watch 7, the charging time indicates shorter on the OEM 15W charger - longer on my OEM Watch 4 charger (and other spare 10 watts chargers). I've been searching recently - there do not seem to be other 3A (15 watt) watch charging pucks available from 3rd parties yet. All the 15W and 25W "fast chargers" I've found are dual chargers for phone and peripherals - the watch charging function for all of them is 5W or 10W.
