Wireless charging for iPhone in 540i

Has anyone tried one of these in the G30 wireless charging bay?

I've tried it. It does fit with an apple leather case on it. Tight, but it fits.

I have the Antye QI cover and it works perfectly fine. In addition my iPhone 7 plus fits in exactly into the charging area. Unfortunately, there's not enough room to charge the smart key as well...but not really a problem.

Great recommendation. I've been struggling to find an inline one that has decent reviews. This case looks good.
