iPhone 13 Otterbox Case and wireless charging challenges
#16
The whole wireless charging route is a pita and not worth the trouble. I was looking for an elegant way to mount the phone. proclipusa.com seems to have decent mount but they on pricey side with all the accessories. In ES there is no really elegant way to mount for big screen phone. My requirement is I need phone screen within view and reach so I can use it as a second screen. At the end of the day I use this cheap mount:

Sure I lose a cup holder but over 99% of the time I don't need it. After a while I got use to this setup and came to really like it as view of iPhone is within easy view and reach while I am operating the vehicle. Best yet it keeps my phone charged without any issues. I like my meaty case and refuse to take it off every time to charge so wired charging is the way to go for me. I have use this setup almost 2 years now and love it.

Question: Does the phone holder or stand of your Lorima a.) come close to scraping the easily scuffable dash material, or b.) interfere with your view of the infotainment screen?

b) no
It's adjustable. Maybe tomorrow I can take a pic of my setup.

I just looked up that product as I've never heard of it. I think I might give that a try. Now, if I can find a way to control the dust which is made worse visually due to a black interior!

Not that you asked about this but for those that are curious, they do have much taller ones, which is the one that I have used.

pretty sure that was me who gave him the idea. (being a baby) LOL. Yeah 1Z is the only product i'll use on interior. it helps maintain oil free matte finish. it's actually a german/BMW product! BMW sells it at their dealers with their logo, rebottled. my detailer friend back in the day turned me onto it. my first impression was this smells weird.. but it grows on you and now i don't want any other smell. it smells like pine needles sort of.. distinct.

Hehe I guess you were at the right place and time to suggest it? I saw this product before but not thought much of it like a lot of other products I come across. I was looking for a new product at the time when you mentioned it so I decided to give it a try . It is a decent product. I like oil free finish so it doesn't turn area into a dust magnet. I use it on my convertible as most of time it spends its life top down.
