Lois, I will be getting an 8 Plus. Will these work with the 8 Plus or do I need another kind. Understand why you need an adapter for other phones, but will I need the adapter with the 8 Plus. Thanks for any help you or anyone else can give me with wireless charging. I know on the apple roll out Belkin was mennameed, but this is much cheaper if it works.
