Hi!

Does anyone have any recommendations on MagSafe/magnetic desk chargers that are compatible with the (rather large) camera bump on the iPhone 14 Pro? Particularly chargers that allow the phone to lay flat on a table, i.e. not a stand.

Previously, for old my iPhone 13 (non-pro), I'd used a Spigen MagFit (https://www.spigen.com/products/magfit-charging-pad) which allowed my iPhone to lie flat on the desk. The camera bump on the iPhone 14 Pro is significantly larger however, and the camera bump hits the side of the charger.

I've also tried the Native Union Drop Magnetic (https://www.nativeunion.com/products/drop-magnetic-wireless-charger), but even though this has a raised charging surface, the camera bump still makes contact with the metal enclosure (and having metal contact the camera lens seems Bad!).

FWIW I use my iPhone without a case, and prefer it that way, so buying a thick case to reduce the protrusion of the camera bump isn't really under consideration.

If anyone has any suggestions, that'd be much appreciated ^^

Thanks for the recommendation!

I had this delivered today and can confirm it works great with the iPhone 14 Pro. But only just... the camera bump really is huge, and it comes to within a few millimetres of coming in to contact with the metal housing. Just about avoids it though 😅
I just ordered this as well. I’m hoping it works with the case I have on the way. Camera bump lip on the case may stick out too much.
