Mobile case wanted - with wireless charging! - thorensjubilee - 03-06-2022

Hello everybody,

I want to get a case for my pine phone and I'm not sure where to get it. I want to get something like this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Hianjoo-Compatible-Samsung-Protective-Replacement-Black/dp/B09QFPY5TP/ref=sr_1_9?keywords=phones&qid=1646565803&rnid=560798&s=electronics&sprefix=phones%2Celectronics%2C80&sr=1-9

My pine phone has the replacement wireless charging mode on the back which makes for a deeper phone. What should I go for? Can anybody help, please? I'm in the UK.

Chris

I just bought Pine64's case. https://pine64.com/product/pinephone-soft-tpu-protective-case/

They also sell a Qi/wireless charging case that doesn't make the phone thick. https://pine64.com/product/pinephone-pinephone-pro-wireless-charging-add-on-case/

Both are _cheap_ IMO. Last Android case I bought was $25USD. Plus buying from Pine64 supports the community. Jeff Bezos doesn't need any more support.

Hello,

Yes, but I want a soft, protective case, and Pine phone don't make them, otherwise I'd buy them!

If you use a case from a Galaxy Xcover Pro the dimensions are very close and the buttons are close as well. If its a Folio style case that holds just the corners it will work you will just have to cut a spot for the camera.

Here is a hard case I bought for a xcover pro and drilled holes for the camera

I am in the process of ordering an otter-box case for the xcover pro to see if i can modify it to fit since it looks like a more sturdy case.

My case _is_ soft. 

You probably confused the Qi/wireless back cover with the protective case.  They're 2 different products.
