Wireless charging pad

[kkriskal]

So, I looked at it more closely yesterday. I was able to force the IPhone 12 Pro Max with the leather apple case down against the charging pad, but, it was very tight.

I think opening up the frame 1/16” should be enough so that it will fit nicely. Or, find a thinner skin/case for the phone. This would be preferred over filing the sides of the charging pad frame down.

Just ordered a “Peel” case that claims it is only .35mm thick. I will post the results in a few weeks when I get it.

Thanks, will wait for your feedback. I am curious if this case will work with the wireless charging pad in our Explorers - "
iPhone 12 Pro Max Silicone Case with MagSafe"

Not sure if this helps but my S10 fits with a case.

Ditto

S10+ doesn't fit in a case though

Does anyone else forget their phone in the charger all the time?
I always end up doing the walk of shame after the car is parked

Update.

I received the case for the IPhone 12 Pro Max.
It is 0.30mm thick.

I placed it in the charging pad. It is still a little snug but actually stays in place and charges.

Is anyone else having issues with the iPhone 12 Pro on the wireless charging pad? Both mine and the wife’s will start charging initially for about 15-20 seconds and then I get error message that it has been disconnected, same result regardless of whether a case is on the phone or not. I’ve read a few places that this is a common issue with the IPhone 12 and not necessarily related to the vehicle.

This may be of interest to some.. it is a 12 watt wireless solution that I came up with that works really well and fits every phone out there.

iPhone 12 max doesn’t fit, Sony Xperia 1 II also doesn’t fit. It’s a crap spot and a crap design.

The location of the oe wireless charger is horrendous.

If you think the ST is bad try a new C8 corvette. The only way I can access that charger is when your out of the car. STUPID.

My IPhone 12 Pro Max with a thin wall case fits in the charger.

I believe the location is to prevent distracted driving.

This may be of interest to some of you.. it apparently fits in the center console front cubby. The reviews are good and it seems like it's well made but a bit pricey.

I get this all the time with my 12 pro. No issue at all with an 11 Pro and an 8.

I have this and it's fantastic. Very well made and feels OEM.

My Note S20 fits without the case. My wife's Note S20 Ultra does not fit. The Aviator is different and her phone did work in the Lincoln.
