Cell phone auto charging poor connection Mark 8.5
« on: 24 November 2025, 21:00 »
Purchased soft case for my SE iPhone that was supposedly great for wireless charging but goes in/out just like my last case
Haven’t had good luck with these wireless systems in cars when they are working they take forever to add anything and lots of heat as well
Any type case that works well to recommend?

If its the same as the Mk8, the charging mat is terrible for iPhones.  The camera means it never sits flat so just cuts in/out.  I gave up on mine a long time ago.

Remove the rubber mat from the cubbie. It works much better without it.
