Hi,
Just dawned on me.
I use the original Samsung Desktop fast charger that the phone stands on.
The connection on the back accomadates the micro USB charging cord from my s7 edge.
So if I go with the s8 or Note 8 later am I going to need to change the stand or is there any kind of adapter kit ?
The stand cost £45 {$56}

This is box contents from the samsung site (ref http://www.samsung.com/uk/smartphones/galaxy-s8/design/)
in the list there is a adapter that will do it for you.
Hope that helps

Hi there, BandOfBrothers.
The stand (along with charging it via the S7 cable) itself will be fine with an S8. If you're wanting to use the S8's USB-C cable in that setup, though, it might need an adapter.

Thank you.
Im possibly if thinking of using the charger that came with my s7 edge!
After all the phone just sits on the charging stand.
Thats is if the power stats on both chargers are the same / similar ?

Yes the tech is the same in regards to power as there is a regulation on the amount of power that is out put on wireless chargers (I wont go down the tech side) but the coils are the same between the models.
