Which wireless charger works best with the OnePlus 12?

Question

Just got my OnePlus 12 and I'm totally lost. I’m upgrading from a Pixel 5 which was honestly a nightmare because the battery died by noon and took forever to charge up. I really need a wireless charger for my desk that actually works fast because battery life is my top priority. Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I have no idea where to start with all the different types. My logic was that any charger would work the same, but then I started reading about 'AirVOOC' and 50W speeds and now I'm just confused. I saw some cheap pads on Amazon for 15 bucks, but will those actually charge this phone quickly? Or do I have to buy the expensive official one? I don't want to waste money on something that takes five hours to hit 100%. I'm in a huge rush to get one before a long work trip where I'll be using the camera constantly. Does a regular Qi charger work okay or is it gonna be painfully slow? Which wireless charger works best with the OnePlus 12?

everyone says you HAVE to buy the official 50W stand or your life is over but tbh most of those reviews feel like people just trying to justify spending 50+ bucks on a plastic stand. yeah the speed is cool but the fan is lowkey annoying if its on your desk and the proprietary tech is a total trap because it wont fast charge anything else you own. real talk, you have options.

Ugreen Nexode 15W Magnetic Wireless Charger: if you grab a magsafe-style case for the op12, this is way more versatile. people act like 15W is "painfully slow" but if the phone is just sitting there while you work, it doesnt matter. you save a ton of cash and it actually looks good on a desk without a loud fan spinning.

Belkin BoostCharge Pro 15W Pad: i prefer something like this because it doesnt get nearly as hot as the official one. heat kills batteries faster than anything and those high-speed proprietary pads are basically small ovens. dont get suckered into the hype that youre forced into the proprietary ecosystem. a solid 15W EPP charger is gonna be fine for 90% of people... just my two cents.
