New wireless charger

Got this one from Ali Express...really like it. You will loose the ashtray as it sits on top of it but you keep both cup holders

Also 1 usb c and regular USB port available for charging too.

Phone sits very snug and no issues with sliding.

Got mine today, Note 10 + is too large, even without the case. Unfortunate.

I'm wondering if this will work with the iphone X and with an otterbox medium case? (in my experience wireless charging has lacked due to protective case thickness it seems). Can anyone confirm?

how does this compare to your original wireless charger?
this looks a little clunky
the pro being the older one used up a cup holder.

would like to hear your thoughts on pros and cons of each as i am looking at buying one.
Android Auto eats my battery. so need something with a decent charge

I would definitely go with this one. It sits kind of in the back and you almost don’t even see the charger compared to the one that sits on top of the cup holder. One negative is the position if the phone and it’s some of a pain if you need to reach your phone and you have a cup or bottle sitting in the holder but this is not an issue for me. At the end it’s all about the look and I think this charger looks almost stealth and more OEM Get this one. You won’t regret.

Does the console drawer cover need to stay open once this is installed?

It looks like the console gets its power from the cigarette lighter.
