iPhone 13Pro / 14Pro charging issues?

Featured Replies

Hi, I have a new work phone coming and I have heard some people have had issues with wireless charging in their cars as the phone does not lay totally flat due to the camera bump. 

 

Does anyone have an IPhone 13pro or iPhone 14Pro or experienced this at all please 🙂

All phones with camera bumps (so pretty much all phones these days) have the same issue, especially when on charging mats that are moving around and subject to G forces that move the phone around the pad as it is charging. If the phone isn't making proper contact with the pad, then charging efficiency will be reduced, if it charges at all. If the phone isn't properly aligned with the elements in the pad, then charging efficiency will be reduced, if it charges at all. Put the two together and you can see why phones that don't sit flat and slide around the charging mat might have issues charging...

 

The simple answer is to use a MagSafe case - not only does this mean the wireless contacts in the phone (well, the case actually) and the mat are flat against each other, it also means the phone (again, the case) is slightly less prone to moving around the charging mat whilst driving.

Thanks Yogi-Bear, will get a Magsafe case on order 👍

I’ve just come across this problem as well.  If you don’t have a case then turn the phone around so that the charging port goes into the tray first and the Qi charging will work!!
