iPhone X and cases

[jyoung]

Any thoughts on how the iPhone X will wirelessly charge when in a case? I’m guessing a Rokform case or an OtterBox type case may be too thick.

I know it will work with Apple cases. I think it all really depends on the material used in the case and the thickness of the material. Any metal on the back, like a magnetic case, it probably won’t work. Any thin leather, poly, silicone, or similar would probably be fine.

It depends on the case and its material. Just like how it is for Android devices that supports wireless charging.

Android phines work with wireless charging with cases on sonic see no reason it would be any diffweent.

I am buying the Apple OEM leather case for my X and I would think it should work seamlessly.

Apple has a couple wireless charging stations on their website already. One of them calls out that it will work with a case that 3mm thick. That didn't seem like much to me at first but that would be a pretty thick case. I think most standard cases will be fine (with the exception of anything made out of aluminum or an Otterbox Defender).

Actually I've used plenty of wireless charging phones. And never had a issue with using the Otterbox defender. Shouldn't be a issue.
