for now there are just a few accessories that I have found so far, I'm just preparing for my new upcoming MI MIX.

Hmm not bad I need both of those
If anyone finds a case for Mi Mix, which has this built in - please post a link here. Wireless charging is the only thing that's missing from this phone, besides OIS in the camera. A case with built-in receiver would take care of that.

Can you find one with built in wireless charging receiver though? By the way, I think 0.6mm is too thin. Having extra slim case has its advantages when carrying it, but one of the main purposes of having a case is to protect the phone from shattering if you drop it. Because Mi Mix's screen goes all the way to the edge with no bazel - I think the phone wrapped in 0.6mm case will still shatter, if you drop it on a hard surface.

i'd say pretty much 0 percent chance you are going to get a charger with a wireless receiver in it considering how small of a release this phone is and its not worldwide. so few phones have those chargers built into the cases.

All good arguments, and you're probably right - a case with built-in wireless charging receiver may not ever get released for Mi Mix. However, there is still hope, and a number of those Chinese eBay sellers, who sell phone accessories, have a small factory and make those accessories themselves. Who's to say someone won't do it? As a last resort, I may purchase a standalone receiver, like the one I linked earlier and a case, and then pay some local tech shop to merge the 2, and create a custom accessory.

Hey,
I have ordered this case : http://www.ebay.fr/itm/TPU-UltraSli...206297?hash=item543eb38919:g:yVsAAOSwImRYKyn5
will let you know as soon as I receive it.

And it works perfect, I use the supplied power supply so I am not sure if it uses all of the rapid charge but works for what I need.
Hope that helps.
Does anyone know of any back protector for this awesome phone.

Not helpful at all. It's a wireless charging receiver sticker, pretty much same one I linked in my original post about the product I'm looking for. I don't think you understand the difference between external sticker like this and phone case with built in wireless charging receiver, which is what I'm looking for. You quoted or replied to my posts already several times, each time providing a link to a different product, unrelated to what I'm looking for. You link either regular cases, or external wifi receiver stickers, neither of which is helpful.

I went for the black color option,which is actually more of a smoke color,not a true black,the pic in the description is accurate.
Anyhoo,the fit & cut-outs are perfect,the volume/power button cutouts make finding both a lot easier than when using the stock leather case.
Yeah,the OEM MIX Leather case has this one beat in the looks department,but,the button cut-outs & slimmer profile,which makes for a better feel-in-hand,trumps the aesthetics of the stock case.
It's a shame to cover this phone at all,but,the case actually makes usability a bit better,a more sure grip,so,this one does it for me.
I've got a clear TPU Case & a (black) Pelosi case on the way,I'll update when they arrive (ETA any day now through Dec 23rd).

But it's not made by a brand name company? I would consider buying this if it's prime eligible though.

Looks like it comes from the same build house as Spigen's wallet case. Like previously said, if it does the trick, I think it'd be a great case. What concerns me, though, is the mention of a magnet. That's never a good thing to have around credit cards which looks exactly like what that little insert was intended for.

What then causes the view that appears in the window to work. I am aware that a magnet over the Hall sensor on the side of the phone causes the S view to appear, what then in the S view case causes the reaction?
The S-view function certainly DOES require a magnet. It's not a magnet to hold it closed, it's a relatively small magent mounted about 1cm in from the left side near the volume down button. I had to fit one to my case with an s-view window which came without a magnet (and didn't therefore work).
A credit card mag-stripe will almost certainly be corrupted by the magnet, but then again mag-strips are dying out in favour of chip and pin or nfc. Some banks are starting to issue cards without mag-strips.

i would like to know where did you buy this cover?

i'm wondering how strong the magnet is at keeping the case closed? i don't want to drop the phone and have the case open and the phone land on the screen and break
I have the official Samsung flip cover (basically same as S view) and after three days with it on, I no longer had any issue with it not staying closed. Once you "break it in" it remains closed just fine. A month later and it stays shut on its own no problem.
I originally ordered one of $12 "Samsung" versions off Amazon. The front of the cover was the same quality as the OEM from Best Buy, but it said "Galaxy SIV" rather than "Galaxy S4" (not a big deal, maybe even a plus for some users) however, the back cover was junk. Didn't match the phone, didn't fit properly and was thicker than the OEM. I ended up selling it on Craigslist a few days later. Very happy with the OEM version and the discount I got with a Best Buy coupon. I'm considering the S view version when it drops in price a bit, but probably won't risk the "Samsung" versions on eBay and Amazon.

I wouldn't recommend the case in my picture (not the one being discussed by the OP, I have no experience of it) to anyone. The label saying "premium leather" is a plain old lie. Even gluing a magnet to the cover to enable s-view mode is only partly effective as you can't answer a call with a swipe because the window is too thick.
See my thread about it here
Does anyone have first hand experience with cases that allow QI charging? I'm getting my phone back from screen repair today ($200 later) so I guess it is time to buy a case. Never needed one on my others phones and they all survived, but so be it.
What cases have you guys used that allow wireless charging to function properly? I am tempted to get just the tempered glass, but then I know I'll break the back or side somehow, so I might as well get a case.
Anyone using a case with QI?
The cheap tpu s line cases work fine. Also, dbrand skin and bumper work. All from personal experience.

You can use all of those without taking them off or taking them apart at all? I'm looking for something that'll protect the phone in a drop, yet I can pull it out of my pocket and straight on the charger. No off and on case.
I really appreciate your answers guys.
I'm liking the look of the cruzerlite. It seems like it should offer regular drop protection. Do you agree?
Now do you think the cruzerlite will work with any of the tempered glass protectors? I'm paranoid of breaking this phone now. I actually bought the S4 and returned it and decided I liked my N4 enough to get it repaired for $200. Just love this phone and need to make it last until nexus 5 at least lol.

Yes none have to come off to charge and the Resolute will charge it just requires a precise placement and then still stops charging but it's easy to remove if I need to charge.
Final question I promise, do MOST cases allow me to use a tempered glass screen protector with them?
I'm thinking of just buying a few cases at best buy today and returning whatever I don't like.
I would really like tempered glass because my beloved ghost armor did nothing at all to prevent my phone from being destroyed.
I use a simple sleeve case by Gizmoskin. Although it is so easy to take the phone out of the sleeve, you can leave it in and still get wireless charging through the sleeve.

Hello everyone,
I'm the proud owner of a Nexus 4, probably just like you all who read my right now. :laugh:
I'm really turned off by the prices at which all the motorcycle GPS are sold (they're waterproof) (ie : Tomtom Rider)
So I just thought to myself as you would expect "hey why wouldn't I use my Nexus 4 running Waze?!". Still there's the water(un)proofness of the device which makes me want to find a way to use it anyway.
There sure are some cases that are supposedly waterproof like the "ram mount aqua box 20". Yet, if i'm planning on a long ride, i'm really going to need to charge my phone. And the problem is that i'll have to open the case a little to let the cable in to charge (and I am now assuming that there is enough space to connect the cable at the bottom and close the case just around the wire... which is unlikely to be so.)
So I just thought to myself again "hey! why is it they haven't thought about a wireless charging, waterproof case?!"
That would solve the whole problem!
Has any of you lot ever heard about any such accessory for phones (even if not for the Nexus 4)?
(Oh and I'm really sorry about any english flaws you encountered in this message, I'm not an english native speaker. )

What problem??? Nexus 4 has qi wireless charging built in...why does the case need it, too? Just get any case, snap it on, and wireless charging should still work. If not, return the case and complain that it keeps wireless charging from working. But I can't honestly imagine a single case in existence doing this.
Know how I waterproof my phone?? A ziplock bag.

Hello and thank you for your reply.
I think you misunderstood what I was thinking of though.
I know that the Nexus 4 can be charged by Qi. But as far as I can tell, there are absolutely no "wirelessly" charging cases adapted to motorcycles.
I am just thinking about something like this :
on the top of which would be glued/fixed a totally waterproof case for the phone and the charging orb would have to be mounted to the handlebar with a system like this (for example) :
The big difference with a wire charging ordinary case is that you don't have to let any wire in the case, so there is absolutely no way for water to get inside the case.
It would basically look like this (with a FLAT and THIN Qi charger unlike this Nexus Orb) :
I understand that my english is ... well... not really all that good so if you want me to re-explain myself in another way, it's no big deal

You do not need a qi-capable case for Nexus 4...in fact, they don't even exist. This is because the phone already has the ability!! I think you are either using the wrong word for what you are describing, or you may be confused. There is no special case for this. It just works.

Okay I really think you're not getting my point :laugh: Thank you for your interest though! I'm going to try to say it in other words.
Alright i KNOW the Nexus 4 HAS already the Qi stock inside it. What i want to do is to charge it by Qi, trough the waterproof sealed case! So that not a single drop of water is able to leak inside the case, just because it's sealed!
So obviously the case itself, appart from being waterproof, has nothing special, The only thing we want from it is to be well fixed on to the Qi charger.

So you are just looking for a waterproof case, then?? I don't understand why all the confusing qi drawings were necessary...that's what confused me. I'll have a look, though, because I woukdn't mind having one either. I ride my bike a ton and I get caught in tghe rain a LOT more than anyone would expect. Like I said, I've always just used a zipper seal plastic bag up until now.
Most highly protective cases are too thick to operate Qi charging through. Just get a good case, run a wire through, use silicone sealant, and you'll be good.

There are 2 different cases on Amazon that fit the S5+wireless charging back... In fact, Samsung's own protect case for the S5 works with the charging back (I should know, I have both...).

I think we'll agree to disagree on that.. Yes, you can get some of the TPU covers on the S5, but it's very clear that they're not made to accommodate the extra bulk. I tried the Samsung TPU case on the S5 - it looked horrendous and rendered the ports inaccessible without me performing contortions every time I had to use them. I had to cut it to get it off the device.
As far as I'm aware, no manufacturers make a case to accommodate the wireless charging backs (Note x, S4, S5). Some kind of fit, rarely well.

Both of the S5 cases I have fit perfectly, and specifically said they were made to work with the wireless charging back - including the samsung one I got.
I agree regular s5 cases don't fit right. The two I'm talking about do, as they were made to.
One is by diztronic:

the other is this one by Samsung :

(note the comments that all agree it fits with the charging back)
My only point in this is that samsung, and other 3rd parties, HAVE made cases that fit correctly with the wireless charging cover.
Hopefully someone will do the same for the note 4.

Same for me.. I have a Diztronic case which looks similar to that S5 one, but for my S4 with the Samsung Wireless Charging cover, and it fits perfectly and in no way covers or misaligns any of the ports, IR, or mic holes.. it's perfect. I got if off Amazon also.
As for Note 4 tho, I would like to find similar products as I intend on purchasing the Note 4 Wireless Charging Cover and would probably want to wrap it in a case to protect it if/when I do drop it.. hopefully they start making some soon.

(note the comments that all agree it fits with the charging back)
My only point in this is that samsung, and other 3rd parties, HAVE made cases that fit correctly with the wireless charging cover.
Hopefully someone will do the same for the note 4.

Yep. That Diztronic case is specially made for the OEM wireless charging back on the S5. Anyone saying otherwise hasn't done their research. I own it, and it's a perfect fit. It won't fit properly on the standard S5 back since it's made for the thicker wireless back.
I'm also hoping that we get a case that's designed to work with the OEM wireless charging back. Samsung missed the boat on not making the protective case compatible.
Maybe we can convince Diztronic to make one for the Note the

They haven't released a case for the Note 4 with the standard back yet, so I don't see that happening anytime soon.
I wish someone would make a qi case similar to the LG g3 case that replaces the back cover and ads a small bumper....
The genuine Note 4 S-View flip cover with integrated Qi is on Samsung's mobile accessories site. $69.
What a terribly huge mistake I have made.
I bought both because I wanted my phone to be both wirelessly-chargeable and safe (I had a charging PAD under the original cover and a bumper case for Note 3).
I can't have both.
What frustrates me is that if I took the previous approach and buy crappy chinese items, I would not have this problem. The charging pad did not create such a huge bulge and the protective cases would still fit. I wanted quality so I chose Samsung for both, and all I have is disappointment and a huge invoice.
I ordered this from Ebay 10 days ago and got it in the mail today from China.
First things first, this is real leather! The smell and feel is genuine leather, although very thin. The grip feels similar to my T-mobile brown leather back I had previously on my G4. It's actually pretty soft and supple. The leather does not surround the whole back, but just the rear side of the back. The sides of the back are smooth black plastic.
The fit is a little more snug than the factory LG back. The back clipped nice and tight, but mine had a little gap by the headphone jack. I did not see any other gaps elsewhere. This may just be a mold issue and YMMV. The back is slightly thicker than the factory one. It's only noticeable when pressing the volume down button, where you can feel the back is slightly thicker. I only have one case (spigen ultra thin) and it fits perfectly, and wireless charging works over the case as well.
Wireless charging works perfect, but the sweet spot is quite small. I feel that is more to do with the charger i'm using, than the coil in the back. Either way, I have no problem placing the phone on the charger first try. Using ampere with the screen on, I see on average 700mA. Side note, when my phone was placed on my wireless charger (Nokia DT900) I can hear an ever so slight whine noise. I heard it too previously on my S6 Edge Plus using the same charger, but it is a tad louder on this wireless charging back. Not sure if its the charger, or the coils.
My final thoughts are that it is well worth the $15 shipped. The leather feel is fantastic, and wireless charging is a big bonus! The ebay user I used (which I have zero connections with) is : connectionstation

First, thanks so much for posting this. I'm sure a bunch of us who want wireless charging will look into this for a more premium feel. The normal back of this V10 makes me think how Samsung missed out on such a market with The grip-feel of The back of this V10. Plastic or rubber like and phone is huge but because off The textured back I haven't dropped it once ( ok well I did drop it once but no damage)
Questions for you before I buy:
Grip: which back is easier to grip? Is this a super smooth leather or do the oils from your finger/leather help grip it?
Sounds like you would obviously recommend: does the color match the phone? It looks great in pictures.
Does it raise the camera any more off the table than the normal back? I scratched black ring around camera while putting on screen protector while it was on the table. I can't tell by pictures.
Thanks
Received my "buttery" cover today too. "Chargerg" works good with my TYLT charger. Sweet spot is more forgiving than my note 5 on that thing.
I agree with everything else.
Grip is still pretty good. Less free feeling on a glass table. Grips a smooth surface.

A little darker black and about the same mold to camera as the factory one. A little raise but not above the lens.

I ordered the same listing, but brown
@skyline23 @secretLOVER which ones did you guys buy, mind sharing links?
I really dig that it looks very similar to the G4 backs.
If you search for user : connectionstation you should find it.
Does it charge to full capacity?
Is it quick charge?
Is there an overheating issue?

Thanks for your information, the wireless backs actually look better than I expected, the seller should use your pics, he would sell more of them I ordered one from another listing because it was so inexpensive although in most cases I'm going to prefer fast charging to wireless charging.
Just ordered the red one. Thanks for your review.

Yeh, the red looks good and matches the gold well, too bad the front of the phone is not red, and the back buttons, then it will be perfect.

If the the stations you bought are qi they should be compatible with a qi back. Someone mentioned fast chargers for samsung note not working.
Here is mine in Brown, didn't find this thread, was buried deep..

I would also like to know. Also, how sturdy are the clips on it? I might change my Battery out a couple times a month and don't want to have my back snap off.

It's as good as my original IMHO, tad snugger. So you press slightly harder to snap in place and have to run your nail through detaching most to get it off.
