I have had mixed results charging the phone with the case on. Does this device have a stronger/weaker signal relative to other Qi chargers?

It works through the case on my Nokia Icon (fairly thick case) and it works through the case on my fiancée's HTC 8X. The other QI chargers I use also work through the cases: Nokia's flat charger, car charger, speaker charger, and the TYLT.

I havent yet got a case for my S6 Edge but would say from experience the signal is stronger from the Nokia wireless charger than this one. But obviously you also get the 5000mAh battery which is fantastic in my mind.

This does has a stronger signal than my daughters qi charger. She has a jewel case and her charger will not work. She can keep the case on and use my charger and it is fine.

I never noticed a difference in charging strength with the case on or off. I only charged the phone however with plastic bumper cases and never a wallet case. I used this with a nexus five and it worked fine every time.

I put my Nexus 4 inside the case and it was able to charge wirelessly... in fact, the case I use on my Nexus 4 is thicker than this one and I've never run into issues with wireless charging.

I don't know what exactly your asking cheif. But I'll give you my best. I bought mine about the same time. Worked nice for about a month then I could never get it to actully start charging my phone. The blue lights came on, but no charge. I gave up on this thing and got an otter box as it provides actual protection to the device. I just have to watch the usage to make sure i have enough power for the day. I would recomend the same. However, if you are a big user and need more power I suppose you could try one of those external (plug the cord in a battery bock) battery USB chargers. Kills the convenience of the case, but it will spare the heating of the device during case charging wich is bad for the phone. Hope this has helped.

No for my Qi, It is sensed but no useful amount of charge gets into the phone.

This device only works with devices that have support for the Qi Wireless Charging Standard. Some devices have this feature built-in, and there are various add-on products that will allow a device to work with this charger. I think this is one of the best devices for wireless charging available if your device has the proper support.

Yes it does, though I cannot confirm how well it works as I do not use QI charging.

I didn't see a problem with dropped or lesser signal strength but when I turned it on to charge my phone while on the road it drained my phone battery. I quit using it and bought a mophie which I love!

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.

Depends on the thickness of the case. I have a Diztronic TPU case and it charges it just fine with the case on. I can't say the same about other, possibly thicker cases.

No sir, the Q is thicker and the charging port is in a different location. I made sure to check before I decided to purchase the q or not.

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.:)

I don't think any of the wireless chargers work with any of the cases. I have the Samsung wireless charging back but I can't seem to get it to work with any cases on.

Simple answer is yes. Qi chargers generally work with cases or even a book (Thin) in between.

I had this question too and purchased this anyway. The included plate does not interfere with the Qi wireless charging, since you don't even need the plate to stick the phone to the magnet. The Qi circuitry plate can do that for you, at least in my case (I use Qi wireless case on my phone). Now the question is, will the magnet shorten the life of the Qi plate? Is it safe to charge (using microUSB port) while the phone is Qi-mounted?

Just got this case, and fully assembled it DOES NOT work with the wireless charger that Google sells.When I take off the hard shell (with the kickstand) and leave on the soft rubber skin, then the battery charge indicator does come on, but the phone doesn't feel very magnetically secure on the charging stand (there's just barely some magnetic attraction left.) With the hard shell on, there's no appreciable magnetic hold and no charge indicator (possibly the metal pins in the kick stand interfere with the resonant EM energy transfer, and possibly the hard shell also creates too much distance between the phone and the charging surface.)

It does for me. I have a Qi charger and it works amazing. Got that charger on here too.

I've had issues with anything thick using this charger. without a case it charges the nexus 4 without issue. With a case is completely different. I've discovered that the Lugulake wireless chargers are far better.
