My wife got her new S23 2 weeks ago and is having problems with wireless charging. Every so often it just stops working. You put it onto a wireless charger and nothing happens, no messages, no acknowledgement that it's even trying to charge. Once this happens, the only way to fix it is a reboot. Once you reboot, it starts wireless charging as normal.
It doesn't stop charging part way through, if you put the phone on the charger it either starts working or nothing!. If it starts charging, it will charge OK until full. So it's not a temperature issue.
We have tried 4 different wireless chargers (a Samsung one, two from Amazon and an in-car one). They all work fine until the phone decides to stop recognising the chargers and then none work.
We have even tried wireless power sharing from my S23 Ultra - nothing until a reboot.
If we plug in a charging cable, it will start charging OK, but still won't wireless charge.
It can happen at any battery level, we've seen it at 46%, 65%, 85% and 96%.
My S23 ultra uses the same wireless chargers without issue. We still have my wife's S21 and that has never had issues with the same chargers. So I am 100% sure it's not a charger issue.
We are wondering if it's a hardware of software issue. If it's hardware we need to get the phone returned and replaced, if it's a software issue then we can perhaps wait for Samsung to fix it.
Anyone else and similar experience?
Thanks.
Wireless trio from samsung just arrived and I am really shocked and disappointing. Turns out the of galaxy watch isn't supported. I probably wont return it because of the hassle (international amazon). Just wanted to warn you guys about this.
I recently bought this one and it works great. Doesn’t have fast wireless charging but i charge overnight so it doesn't matter.

Just to clarify, is this the Galaxy Watch 1st gen? I just ordered one but I'm using the Galaxy Watch 3 so I think its compatible. I think the older Duos supported the 1st gen of Galaxy Watch
Well my old trio wireless charger is kinda useless now. Charges slower and to use the ultra watch on it you need to remove the band which is kind of annoying. Was handy having a device to charge my buds,watch and phone. What is everyone else using now?
