I found this case on Amazon that has a simple case for the phone that has magnets in it so that it will cling to a wallet, but the way the magnets are you can't charge your phone wirelessly. I think its a great idea for people with a 6 or a 7, but it breaks a function of the phone which I like to use sometimes. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MXFCG1Q/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Not sure if any detachable wallet would work with wireless charging as all would require a magnet for attaching.

I got this about a week ago and I highly recommend it.

I've never heard of the brand Zover but this particular wallet case is very well made. Wireless charging works but you'll need to detached the phone case and remove a metal plate on the inside of the case (if you had installed it).

What I like most is that the detachable case is quite slim when compared to other wallet type case I have tried so far.

I love wallet cases except I bought a gimbal to shoot video and a wallet won’t work with it. But this seems perfect. Darn you for posting (and me for following). Oh well, here comes another case to add to my collection.

Hi, would you mind doing a mini review or maybe a few pics with some description? I having been searching for a wallet case for a long time. This one look most perfect (wish they have a cut out for the ear piece). However, I can't find any proper review of this Zover case. Hope its not too much too ask. Best!

There is one single flaw in 99% of all wallet cases - when you fill up the left hand section with cards (even just one card), and then close the flap, the card/cards will 100% touch the screen of your iPhone resulting in possible scratching to the screen.

I know people will say, "...just get a screen protector" however, the fact remains that the cards in the slots WILL mark the screen protector, when the flap is closed (sometimes, it's not the card itself which actually touches and scratches the screen but the bulge of the card, which causes the leather slot to stick out slightly so that the lip of the slot is in constant contact with your screen - this WILL 100% mark your screen). That, I can pretty much guarantee.


I have found one case, however, from Tech 21, which actually has a cover to protect the screen of the phone (the cards do not touch the screen of the phone):

I know it only holds 2 cards but this is the only case I have found whereby you can carry cards which do not touch the screen. I looking to order this case this week.

If you go to the Amazon site and scroll down to the reviews, they have 3 video reviews there of the Zover.

I have the new version of this case from my iPhone X and wireless charging works flawlessly. The magnets are strong and keep it from sliding away from the wallet even when dropped. it's worth nothing the magnets are in the wallet section. the number only has a metal plate that is not magnetized.

EDIT: According to Burkley Case's website the 7 / 8 Plus version of the case is wireless charging comparable. perhaps its your charger?

The bumper section has a metal plate but not around the charging area. I tested with a magnet and it does not stick to the middle of the case. there are plenty of Qi comparable magnetic cases for car mounts that already exist.

This works with wireless charging, because the magnets are in the corners. The case itself is actually quick protective, but this is faux leather, so it's not top quality, but works for the Mrs. and her needs.

That's an iPhone X case not a 7 / 8 Plus case

...bare in mind that once you fill the case with cards, that magnetic closure will NOT keep the case closed.
 
I received the Zover case yesterday. It’s nice but the magnets, unfortunately do affect the camera. Even out of the wallet portion. I tested by using portrait mode on my X. Without the case on, I was able to shoot my watch on my desk in portrait mode. With the case on, the camera kept saying I had to move back farther. Sadly I’m going to have to return to Amazon. I wish the actual case had less magnets, or none, and then outside of the wallet I’m sure it would be fine.

Sure, I'll try when I get a chance. In the meantime, darrinS is correct, there are videos on Amazon that are very informative and should help you decide.
