What are you guys using for the portion on the phone? I understand its a small plug or cover for the phone which connects to the charge port. Any recommendations?

That said, I'm not sure that I understand the question. I am hoping this is a "wireless charger" snap in cradle and that BMW comes out with another one to hold the larger phones. |

However, there are cases other than BMW's that allow for wireless charging and they should work here as well, but hard to say for sure until someone tries it. And @masou, I was told when I picked mine up that there are no plans for cases that could fit the Plus iPhone lines and even the iPhone 6/6s doesn't have one currently. |

I meant that when I saw the wireless charging option I started reading and saw that you can buy a small flat card type device which fits between your phone and your current case and the end connects to the charge port. But not sure if all out there are compatible with all chargers. |

So that is what I meant in my original post, that if anyone here had used a specific one they recommended because there are many options out there.. Thanks for sharing the info! |

If it really can't support the iPhone 6 plus then I wonder why BMW would offer an iPhone 6 plus case

So I'm guessing iPhone 7+ will not fit either? Trying to decide what size I'm going to pre order. Love the dual camera setup on the 7+ but at least the regular iPhone 7 got image stabilization this time.

So went to BMW today and the X5 has wireless charging built into the side of the arm rest. I'm shocked the M2 isn't the same. My iPhone 6s+ fit in that one. It pulls in and out to accommodate thick and thin phones.

So since you have your car now, have you tried out the wireless charging as yet. I bought a cheap one from Amazon and it sucks.
