Unlike the Nomad Base Station I wrote about previously, the ZENS “Liberty” wireless charging pad doesn't just use a separate charging coil for each device; it has sixteen overlapping ones that create a full-spread charging zone that simply works no matter where you set a device down.

Pictured here is the glass edition, partly for illustrative purposes but also because it looks frickin' sweet.

Basically, this means no more hunting down any “sweet spots” when you want to charge. However, the tradeoff is that you can only charge two devices at once, not three. They do charge at a rate of 15W though, which is pretty nice.

(Important note: I've heard reports that this charger doesn't play nicely with the Qi charging spec of the new iPhone 12 lineup. I only have the 11 myself, so I can't test this for certain.)

The fabric-topped edition is $170 on Amazon, while the see-through glass one is $200.
