MY25 Wireless Charger
I collected my Defender last week and it’s everything I hoped and more!

I just have a question for any MY25 owners about the wireless charger - I have an iPhone 15 Pro Max which just about fits into the charger (thanks to the updated centre console design!). However, it doesn’t always seem to charge my phone even with if I remove the case.

I wondered if this is just how it is, whether there’s any particular knack or whether I’ve got an iffy charging pad?

Shocked Personally I wouldn’t bother as it overheats the phone
I used a lead Thumbs Up MY25 90 D350 X-Dynamic HSE in Silicon Silver and coil sprung

Many Range Rovers and Land Rovers over the years 😂

I don't use it either, neither this one nor any other, for the same reason, use the lead, I only leave it for exceptional moments! and It is very rare that I need to recharge in my car, phones now hold a charge for a very long time!! although there are people who use this charger as a storage for their phone and it charges continuously by default, and its not good idea! Defender 110 SE I6 D250 23MY

I reckon it'd be the camera bump. On those pro phones the cameras protrude so far out of the phone that, in some cases, the waves from the wireless charger (or whatever they are - I don't understand witchcraft) can't reach the coils? inside the phone. But again, as other people have said, I wouldn't advise using the wireless charger.

Wireless chargers are nothing more than a magnetic coil. No witchcraft. Either remove the phone from its case, or place face down. It needs full surface contact for the low powered mag field to carry the charging current to the battery. Face down works for my Android S24 with quadlock case.
