Retrofit QI charger
I paid $500 for the optional QI wireless charger when I got my car... only to find that its spring loaded holder doesn't open wide enough for most phones.
This looks like a good solution for a lot less money. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/QI-w...893325125.html |

I'm not sure. I think you could just cut off the lighter adapter and connect it to the power for the 12v socket on the rear of the console. That way all wires would stay inside the console.

USB power output is pretty poor on the BMWs. I'm unsure if it's all models but I've definitely had issues on my F32 and previous F22 with slow charging.

My F30 340i, F80 M3 and both my i3's don't have a problem keeping my iPhone X fully charged through the center armrest charge while running waze on a 1 hr commute. The cigarette lighter does the job as well. One thing I like about the center armrest usb is that it doesn't have the issues that the bluetooth playback do. Its faster and there is no delay that I have experienced in ALL my bimmers.
