Description

My wife has a bulky case for her iPhone and I have a Google Pixel phone, neither of which would fit in the stock model so I made it taller. The “bump” for the camera on her phone case also interfered with the phone being able to be aligned with the charge pad properly so I had to shave a bit off the top of the model to make things line up. While the model is slightly taller than required for both of our phones the Magsafe charger pads hold them in place quite nicely. For my phone I find the extra space between the phone base and the cradle of the phone stand to be of benefit as I can gently push down on the phone to disengage the magnetic lock of the charger and then just pull the phone away, rather than fighting trying to pull it off and having the charger pad coming out of the stand. I added a small zig-zag to the charge cable tract on the bottom which holds the cable in place as well, now you don't have to print a separate base to hold the cable in place (nor do you have to glue it like I did with my initial model). For anyone interested in an alternative to the Apple chargers I found the following ones work great and fit in the model perfectly (non-affiliated link): https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0DJP6WWGB?th=1
