does it work with an otterbox cover on a samsung galaxy s5

The generic cover that I have doesn't stop my phone from charging, but I have to find the right spot. Make sure, however, that you have a charging cover (QI receiver) underneath the case since it doesn't come with the phone.

In terms of the thickness of your case...Yes the unit will charge through your case. But make sure you have a "QI Receiver" installed on your S5. The Galaxy S5 does not come QI compatible stock. A receiver needs to be added to your phone.

I am using it with a Lifeproof case so assume it would work with an Otterbox also. I had to raise the end of the Lightning cable slightly to compensate for the case but it was an easy modification.

Can't answer regarding OtterBox but others may be interested to know that it works fine with a Spigen Neo Hybrid case. It's a great concept since you can adjust the length of the cable end that is inserted. My only problem is that I have to use both hands to pull it off the stand.

I have an iPhone 5. It would not work with an otter box that I purchased. I returned the otter box.

No! It won't fit, my s3 wouldn't fit it! I have an otterbox case on my s3 ,but it is still smaller than a s5! Don't buy! Only thing I seen it fit was an Apple I-phone

I would say NO. It barely fits my S4, the S5 is larger. I have a very thin, hard rubber style case and I have to slide it in as the arms don't open wide enough with the thin case. I also have an otterbox case and I'm certain it wouldn't fit with with that on. Not the greatest, not the worst.

Yes, it works with my Otterbox Defender, and I'm very happy with it. Love the extra length too!

I do not have the otterbox on my S5 I have a case and the thermal glass...it fits snug with the adjustable band that is inside...I slide my phone in with the top side up..not sure if this helped...I do know the other armbands will not fit using an otterbox

If the Galaxy S5 has a standard 3.5 mm headphone jack, which I'm sure it does, this should work just fine. Headphone jacks are standardized these days and everything works with everything with only rare exceptions. Barry

No, it won't for s5 with any cover in it. It is very tight and fit well only with out any cover.

I'm not familiar with the Otterbox but there is 1/2 inch of space between the back and the front lip of the charger with the connector in the center. If your phone with the otterbox is less than 1/2 inch thick, it will probably work. The sides of the charger are open so it doesn't matter how wide the Otterbox is. The great thing about Amazon is you can order it and if it doesn't work return it.

It should work with any case but I'm not 100% sure because I don't have an otter box case.

I'm not sure with otterbox cases because I haven't used one. But it works well with other SGP cases. If your otterbox case won't enclose any outer part of the screen then I think it will work.

I'm not sure, but we did have problems using one on a Samsung Phone that had a case similar to the Otterbox. I am using it on my iPhone with a case that just surrounds the edge of phone and I love it.

It depends on the type of otter box you have, It should work with the basic otter box cases. But some have a built in screen protector of their own which clicks into the case. So it probably wont be suitable for those.

I use it with S5 with a Spiegen case (don't know if you consider it bulky or thin). It works fine but you need to unvelcro the strap to get it back in.

It does not work directly with the otterbox but... you can make a cut in the back plate so that it fits over the battery. It is not a perfect solution but better then using the this back cover.Check out this video to see what I mean.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQYNfqhrOLA
