I find Anker 24w fast charging bricks and 10’ lightening cables are a pretty reasonable way to quickly charge Apple devices while still using them. I bought a cheap 5w wireless charging pad to throw my phone on while I sleep.

My problem is that every charging cable I get seems to fail eventually. Either the charging port in the phone gets loose, filled with lint, or the cable mysteriously stops working. Even expensive Ankers. Meanwhile my no-name QI charger that I bought for my LG G3 like 5 years ago is still working perfectly. No parts to loosen or clog.

I don’t even bring my wireless charging when I travel. One more piece of gear to pack and keep track of.

I wouldn't either but now that I have one one my desk, nightstand, and coffee table; I could never go back.

yeah no thx. With how long devices last me now and days the only thing that will accelerate my trade in would be the extra battery wear from wireless charging.

Unless it's a particularly hot charger, a slower wireless charge is actually better for your battery.
