Will the iPhone XS Plus fit in the wireless charging area?
I’m about to do my pre-order for the new iPhone XS Plus and I became hesitant because I don’t know if it will fit in the wireless charging area.
Does anyone have experience with fitting an iPhone 8 Plus in that area and having it charge? I did a search and can’t find a conclusive answer for that. Currently my iPhone X fits and charges with no issues. I’d like to get the larger size this year but if it won’t fit the charging bay then I’m sticking to the same size on the XS.

Now, for me I don’t care because I will use CarPlay and it has to be plugged in. I did test and the cutout fir the Xs Max fits perfectly in the cup holder. I actually found my current X wiggled too much in the cup holder. That right there made my decision to buy the Max

FWIW I took a cardboard cutout to my MB dealer this morning (since I don’t have mr car yet). The cutout if the max did fit but it won’t lie flat. Also FWIW my SA said he has seen an iPhone 8 Plus also not lie flat on the charger but it does charge.

Thank you so much for that info. I think I’ll still go with the Max and just hope it charges

Curious if you ordered your phone last night? Almost every time I get up at 3:00 AM to order one, I end up being kicked out, as their servers are usually overwhelmed. This morning, when ordering went live at like 3:05 AM, I got my order in without any hiccup and was back in bed by 3:15 AM. The XS Max will arrive a week from today!

We bought Apple Watch 3 last December, so I'm going to hold off on the new watch for a while. Maybe Santa gifts this year? Glad to hear your experience was smooth as well. On Apple Discussion Forum, most are reporting they had no issues as well. Nice for a change.

two years ago was a complete Mongolian Cluster F**k... last year was better as you could upgrade and turn in your old phone by mail. This year was very very smooth. No issues at all. Haven’t heard of too many either. Used the app rather than web site. Apple Pay made it extremely fast. Whoke process under two min

Last year was the messiest for me. I have iPhone X, but by the time I was able to get my order in at 3:35 AM, my X wasn't scheduled to arrive for 6 weeks. It did come faster, but they sold out so fast on that one and the system kept locking up, delaying my purchase further. This time I was prepared with Apple.com on my laptop. AT&T on my iPad and Apple Store App on my iPhone. LOL. I'm only upgrading this year because I love the screen resolutions SO much that I want the larger Max screen. I use my phone for work emails day and night and this will really help me. Plus being able to have a split screen on the Max to run two apps at the same time will help my work productivity as well.

I've never been a Beta tester as I need my phone for work and can't take the chance the beta software will cause me issues. I'm looking forward to being able to add a second face to Face ID on both phone. At least I hope that feature made it through?
