My Samsung Galaxy S5 is protected by an Otterbox Defender case (relatively thick). With this receiver work wth the case on?

The more distance you place between the coil and the qi charger, the less efficient it is a charging. A typical phone case isn't an issue. Charging with an Otterbox case SHOULD work; however, your mileage may vary the thicker the case.

This is recommendation to cover the possibility that a thick case will prevent your phone from charging. I've tested this charger with the Ringke Fusion and Distronic TPU cases and have had no problems. I would imagine a thinner Otterbox like the Commuter would have no issues, but someone else with a thicker one like the Defender would have to chip in here.

I have a Trident case, which seems to be about the thickness of an Otterbox commuter. It just fits my Samsung S5. I would think that a normal Otterbox would be a stretch to fit.

Should work just the same as S5 case. May not be water proof anymore. I have one in a S5 with a defender case. I work outside 365 all night, no problem. Samsung makes a case that will be more to your liking.

I have an SGS3 on t-mobile, with a case-mate 'barely there' case. In order for the case to fit with a QI receiver installed, I had to remove the actual back/battery cover of the phone, you might have to do the same with the otterbox case. That said, I use an LG WCP-300 QI charger, and the phone will still charge up to approximately 6mm away/above the charger.

not sure what kind otterbox/case on your iPhone 5, hopefully not too thick at the bottom, if too thick, the connection with 8Pin connector would be poor thus not working properly.

how does it work with the Galaxy S5 in an Otterbox case and no Qi charging cover?

I found it to work great with the Defender case since ithe phone is completely inclosed, but the Commuter case would eventually push the screen protector up on the edges which would of course lead to the whole protector coming off.

Here's the listing on AMAZON: Otterbox [Commuter Series] Samsung Galaxy S5 Case - Frustration-Free Packaging Protective Case for Galaxy S5 - Black. Hope this helps!

Yes, it works fine. I have the Otterbox Defender case on my S5 and charge with no issues. The addition of the Otterbox Defender case does cause you to use a bit more care when placing the S5/Otterbox combo on the charging pad, but it's no big deal.

I have a Supcase Heavy Duty case, which is similar to the Otterbox Defender. I'd guess that it will fit in all likelihood, but I have found that while it technically fits, sideways pressure tends to make it misbehave. The volume won't change or button clicks on the remote don't cause anything to happen. I also tried the other, similar right-angle connector and it didn't work well, either. Don't waste your money unless your phone won't be in a belt clip case - any sideways pressure will make them not work well...

I had an otterbox on my phone and it works with it on. So I would think it should work.

I am using an otterbox symmetry case on it now, and have had no problems with the commuter line either. Pretty sure the defender will work just fine, but I haven't that one myself.

No. OtterBox does make cases for Samsung phones, but this one will not fit the galaxy s5.

I had my phone in an Otterbox Defender and it worked just fine. The 'wings' on the mount have thick foam on them and you push the wings in to pinch the phone on place.

I have no idea. All previous Otterboxes for a variety of functions worked as described for as long as I had/have them.

My Commuter has a soft rubbery insert covering the phone with the additional hard outer cover. It works well protecting the phone from bangs & drops. Am unfamiliar with the Defender.
