Grumpy,
Come home, drop phone on charger. Done. No messing with cords. That in itself makes wireless charging worthwhile. It also frees the lightning port for other tasks while charging the phone. Wireless charging is one of the reasons I like my Apple Watch. Wish I had it for my iPhone 6S. Maybe when I decide to replace the Otterbox case I'm using with a model that has a built-in battery that supports wireless charging...

Does Otterbox (or someone else) make a battery case for iPhone that charges wirelessly?
Qi wireless charging will work through a standard non=metallic iPhone cases (the thicker the case, the less efficient the charge), but these days many of us have pop-grips or mounts on our cases, and extra space or metal behind the phone makes wireless charging a pain. More details here.
