    I’ve been using a MagSafe compatible case on my Pixel, and it’s just amazing. It’s great that it’s becoming standard.

        Not OP, but I’m using a Pixel 7 Pro with this phone charger in my car. My wife doesn’t have wireless charging through her phone, so she just added a magnetic ring to hold the phone and charge it over USB-C. The magnetic field is quite strong, I don’t have the feeling it will fall by accident.

        I bought a case with the MagSafe ring builtin because I didn’t want to mess with the ring positioning.

          If I could get Android Auto (out whatever it’s called) to attach to my head unit wirelessly, I’d get one of these in a second. But I still need to plug my phone in for directions.

            I can recommend the AAWireless dongle. It works great in My 16 Ford, and they’re doing regular updates on the firmware to add things like carplay

              I’ve been avoiding it, because my spouse uses an iPhone, and I don’t want to complicate her experience by making her unplug the wireless dongle.

              It looks snazzy though.

        I have a Magsafe compatible Rokform case for my S23U. It works great except that Samsung only allows 15w charging for Samsung chargers, so I can only charge at 10w. All the same, I have a plug in my USB port and only charge wirelessly.
