Nexus 5 case that works with the wireless charging and NFC? - Nexus 5 Accessories

Are there any cases that work with wireless charging and NFC?
Does the quick cover case from LG bother you that you cannot see notifications?
Thanks

Spigen neo hybrid / slim armor both work. Also Spigen ultra hybrid , rinken fusion
And you can always use a leather hole puncher to punch a hole in the flip cover

I'm using a Caselogy Slim Fit and the NFC works as well as the wireless charging (tested on Nokia DT-900 and Nillkin Magic Disk)

Ive got a Rearth Ringke Slim on and charge wirelessly with any problems.

Are there any otter box defender type cases that would allow wireless charging?
I am thinking of getting the LG quick cover for when I need a little protection. And a otter box defender like case for when I'm out in the wilderness.
Thanks for all the great replies so far!

I'm using the "Spigen ultra hybrid" case (so it says in the product name) and i'm really happy with it. I can say for sure that wireless charging works with this cover, and it also protects the phone very good when you drop it. (Yes I've experienced it)

All these ones that have reviews here on the forum are capable of nfc charging.

It's going to depend on your charger as well. The Google / Nexus charger won't charge through the relatively thin Spigen Neo Hybrid.
Google states in their troubleshooting information that the case may need to be removed.

Its depends on the charger and the case.

Diztronic matte black TPU.

Thanks everyone.
I will be using the newer Nexus qi charger.
Or maybe the Nokia wireless pillow one.
Which charger is better?

I dont have a problem using the spigen neo hybrid and the official nexus wireless charger.

any universal dock that fits with a case? Seidio Innodock maybe?

i got the incipio silicrylic case for the phone and am looking for a universal dock that will charge the phone with a case. so far i've considered the seidio innodock and this universal dock from amazon but im still not sure if they will fit with the thicker silicrylic case.
another option was just to get the Clingo stand and use the adapter to charge.
anyone have any suggestions?
Also wondering if anybody knows a good Micro-USB stand that can charge with a case (NEO Hybrid) without any problem.
Was thinking the case might be a problem as it takes a couple of mm of space beneath the phone and that the dock USB-male won't have enought height..
The dock from Amazon linked above does not work with my Ringke Slim case - the USB connector is too short and it doesn't plug in properly. The case is pretty slim, but unfortunately it doesn't work.

yah i was thinking the same thing about the mirco usb adapter. the one on the innodock is raised and pivots so i think it has the best chance of working with most case. Seidio states that the innodock works with their active case which is very similiar to the silicrylic case.

I'll be ordering either the Moko slim or Poetic slimline case in the next week or so, I'll update my post with that result whenever it comes down to it.
Just as a heads up as well, this charger does work with my Nexus 4 and Ringke Fusion and S-line TPU cases, so this charger is capable of charging other Qi enabled devices with a case in between.

Will do! I plan on getting a few others too, so I'll be sure to come back.
I actually played around a bit more with the case and charger though, and I finally got it to work. It seems the positioning needs to be a lot more precise with the added distance, but if you get it just right, it will charge. I've changed my post to reflect that.
ASUS travel case is just fine...
I have this case it it works just fine with my Nokia DT-900 QI charger:

I think most cases that aren't super thick or made of metal should work.

Thanks for the update. For my setup, I just put it on the pad and it charges. No need to be too precise. I believe the ASUS case is thinner.

Ah, I had not read the update. Thank you.
If you have a qi device and charging pad, you can get a pretty good idea how thick a case will work by using a stack of paper. My TM-101 will charge my Nexus 7 through 1/8" of a paper tablet, but not 3/16".

I am pining for the Caseen Handstrap case but it won't be out for a month:
http://www.caseen.com/caseen-SKINNY...eep-for-Google-Asus-Nexus-7-Tablet_p_275.html
It's easy to hold with one hand when reading and the cover folds back.
I least dislike the Moko and the I-Blason. The Moko's leather latch sticks out and makes it a little difficult to hol=d the case with ne hand when reading. The I-Blason's cover bends in a curve instead of folding back. The Vstn Folio is an exact clone of the I-Blason. Folding back the cover of the Roocase doubles the width, pressing it flat makes the sides stick out an inch. The Finte is also ok, plain without a hand strap.
They were all inexpensive and all better than nothing. I got my I-Blason on the 6th of August and was happy to be able to take the tablet out of the house.
Best,
Tom

i-Blason Prime Series Dual Layer Holster Case and TYLT Vu/Qi

Just ordered a couple of TYLT Vus and I’m considering getting the i-Blason Prime Series Dual Layer Holster Case, http://www.i-blason.com/prime-series-dual-layer-holster-case-for-google-nexus-5-by-lg.html, as well. Anyone have this combination and, if so, does your TYLT Vu or Qi wireless charger work with it? Thanks.

I want to say possible no because of the grooves on the back of the case with the addition of the kickstand. With the kickstand alone, I think that would be hard pressed to work with the Tylt Vu. I have a couple of cases i-blason candygel and spigen ultra hybrid and those two work fine. And keeping in mind the coil looks like it's closer to the center of the phone, based on my usage of the Nexus orb. And because the kickstand is right smack in the middle, you may need to remove the case to wirelessly charge.
On a side note, I have heard the case is pretty easy to remove.
For what it’s worth, I didn’t buy this case. I wound up purchasing http://www.maxboostpower.com/shop/m...stand-fits-all-versions-of-google-lg-nexus-5/ instead and the TLYT Vu and Maxboost case with kickstand work swimmingly together and I figured I’d chime in as the i-Blason case appears similar. While I haven’t looked to see if the phone will charge faster if the kickstand is removed, it appears to be charging plenty fast.
I also have another small post regarding the Maxboost case at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2557909.
Cheers.

[Q] Nexus 5 wireless charger compatibility

Okay...So I've bought a CUBIX rubberized matte finish cover for my nexus 5...just wondering if it would be possible to use the wireless charger with the cover on.
If it's less thick than the spigen slim armor then yes.

Nexus 5 Qi Car dock

Hi all,
Just been looking at a few different car docks for my N5 that have Qi wireless charging and come across two which I'm tossing up..
There's the AirDock ($69) which holds the phone via magnets and micro suction foam
iOttie Easy Flex Wireless Qi Charger, ($72) which has the locking mechanism rather than magnets..
Has anyone had experience with either of these two? I'm leaning towards the Airdock, but my next question is, whether the magnets will work through my Spigen SlimArmor case.... wireless charging works fine through it, so I'm assuming the magnets would too..?
TL;DR- will the magnetic mount work through a Spigen Slimarmor case?
I got an airdock myself. And use a Spigen Neo-Hybrid case. The magnets are pretty strong.
And even if they are not strong enough to use with the Spigen Slim armor case. There is a sticker with metal slaps (really thin) wich you could stick on the inside of your case.
Inductive charging will work just fine i recon.
Hope that helped.

That would definitely do it if the internal magnets didn't work too well through the case.. Thanks for your help!
