Can someone who has the iPhone Air ensure that it is charged in the car on a standard flat induction charging base? I say it because of the thickness of the camera, which separates the contact surface and perhaps does not charge
 
My 2025 MDX charges fine but it causes the phone to warm up. I quit using the wireless charging and just plug a USB-C cable to charge it and it stays perfectly cool.
 
I'm personally not a fan of these induction chargers built into cars. Definitely convenient, but I imagine for so many phones they're not perfectly aligned and results in overheating while charging.

Hopefully eventually we see MagSafe 2 / Qi2 become standard in cars and elsewhere for charging.
