You'll spend 5k for a charger :iomg:
Do you really need it?

Well. It's the wireless charger. Nokia/Samsung models locally are in the range of 3-4K.

I usually buy a dock which costs me around the same and are model specific.
This QI is at least generic so would work with future models too. Better investment than buying a desktop dock really
I mean I am really used to the dock I have for the Galaxy Nexus. So I want something for the Nexus 5.

I personally feel it's insane to spend few thousands for premium priced additional accessories & scratch guard, case etc . The value of the phone itself would go down to 50-60% of the current price in 6 months or even early if there a new upgrade released. If the buyer go for an upgrade, the buyer would endup givng the additional accessories for free or sell it individually for a peanut.
I always prefer getting better quality accessories which is available in the local market. But that's only me ...

Zagg is the only wasteful purchase seriously. 1800 rupee for a screenguard. The case is around 800 bucks. Amzer would have costed me 600. This wireless charger is not device specific as mentioned above.

I don't see the point, wireless means you have to keep it on top of that thing? How is that different from always keeping the charger plugged in and connecting the tab/phone when needed.

It basically works as a holder for the phone. You just place the device on it and charging starts. Yes, I save a second or two on manually attaching and detaching the USB cable to the device every single time.

If I could throw the phone over wireless charger, I could have thought of buying it

Edison is the reason we do not have real wireless electricity yet. Tesla had a working prototype so many decades ago.
