Has anyone had success using this with a Nexus 5 case? Got off the phone with Google and they said it doesnt work with (most) cases as far as theykno

Worked with a thin TPU case on my N5, but nothing more than that. I returned mine for this reason. There are better options, many for less money, IMHO.

Yes, I am using two different cases on my Nexus 5 and both of them work with the wireless charger. One case is a Spigen Slim Ultra Fit (in Smooth White) the other is a Rearth Ringke Fusion case. The magnets also work well through the cases.

I use it successfully with a cheap X style TPU back case for my Nexus 5. But my Nexus 7 doesn't charge with a case.

As far as google case is concerned it works but all depends on the thickness of the case, because if the case is too thick then it wont make the connection with the inductive charging coil. Rest I am not using any case as it will be pointless other wise to buy a wireless charger. I hope this answer will help you deciding in your buying.:)

Works well with the diztronic tpu case. Magnet is weaker with the case on, but that works too.

The model I got is probably ok to use with a thin additional silicone case but will take effort to install. Charging port (mini USB ) will be really difficult to access. The nexus 7 fits loosely a has a wrap around flap which is held by Velcro. I sincerely suggest contacting the district it or and questioning them about whether the adapter is solid or just cut out vinyl.

I had to simply lay my phone on it to work. Double check that the Nexus 7 is Qi compatible. Not many of the new phones are compatible yet internally. You may need a qi charger cover for your phone. I have a ballistic (TPU etc) case on my phone and it charges through it. It really is super great.

Well thats a good question, I bought it for a Samsung Galaxy S4 and it works great!! i love it, now i do not use it all the time, just certain occasions.. It holds a few cards, ID, and Credit/Gas cards as well as a couple of 20 dollar bills. I believe you will like it for your Nexus 5, good Luck Scotty. Nath

After looking at images of the LG Google Nexus 5, I do not see why it would not work and work quite well. The only limitation would be that could possibly be the width but the dimensions given lead me to believe that it should work very well with the LG Google Nexus 5.

I don't think this one work with Nexus 5. Nexus 5 use slimport instead of MHL adaptor. Search for slimport.

Yes, it does work. I finally found 2 adapters that worked with my Nexus 7 AND the keyboard. The keyboard works quite well but I use a separate case for my tablet. I don't want the screen in direct contact with the keys when the keyboard case is closed.

The magnet is in the base, not the plates. The plate is the metal for the magnet in the base to attract to. I do not use a plate with my Nexus 5, and I have a case on it, it works with and without the case. The base holds the phone very securely with the metal that exists in the phone. This will of course vary with every phone. If they are needed, the included plates can be adheared to a bare phone or sandwiched between a case and the phone.

It works well with my Nexus 7 1st gen. Haven't tried it with anything else.

I'm using it with the Nexus 5, which is close to identical in size. And I have a bumper case around it. It works great for me. Very happy with it.

It should work fine. It works with my Samsung Galaxy Nexus with the case on.

Yes, it works with the Nexus 7, 2nd generation.I just bought my wife both and all the ports line up with no modification.I'm not sure why all these people answer so many questions who say they have no idea, they don't own a product.Does this fit this case? I have no idea, I don't own that Nexus.Guess what? This case doesn't fit my Nexus 10. : )

Yes, it fitted right on my nexus 5 without any problems for me. I made sure I clicked the 5 when buying it and not the nexus 4. The sensor and ear holes all lined up for my phone as well. Hope this help.

The Snugg case for the Google Nexus has a better solution, which is a loop that the stylus fits into, very securely and does not flop around. There may be similar cases for other devices.

Hi There,I have a Galaxy S3 and it fits perfect. I'm not sure what the Nexus 5 looks like or how big it is. If it's about the same size as an I-phone, it should fit.

Yes it would work for a Nexus 5. The clamp to hold the phone in place is very strong in my opinion a little too strong. I have a Note 3 and I felt like it was going to crack it in half. The other issue I have is the tongs that clamp the phone in place overhang into the view of the face of the phone. Which in my opinion defeats the purpose. In my honest opinion I would give you mine. I decided not to send it back because it was only $5. But no I would not buy another one.

Hi - Sorry, I only have an iPhone. Not familiar w/ the sizing of the Nexus 5. That being said, the case fits the iP5 like a glove so if the Nexus is a larger phone I would have to say it would not fit. You may consider contacting the company that makes the unit. It's fantastic. By far the best case on the market. ........on a side note, the earphone bud connection is at the bottom of the unit, so depending on where the earphone port is on the Nexus 5, you may have an issue even trying the case out for the heck of it.
