Hello H0rnsD0wn,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand you are asking about our MagSafe cases and if it will work with your Qi charger.

It will work with a Qi-certified charger. There are additional accessories like sleeves and wallets that work with the MagSafe case you might be interested in. Look at our Online Store for all the MagSafe items:

Have a good day!

Okay, thank you! Will it have the benefits of MagSafe charging over Qi charging if I just use a MagSafe case and not a MagSafe charger?

I really appreciate the help!

The iPhone MagSafe scheme magnetically couples an attachment and the iPhone.

MagSafe permits Qi wireless charging at a higher wattage (15W; newer Qi version) when charging when coupled with a “Made for MagSafe” charger.

“MagSafe compatible” chargers operate at 7.5W and this using an older and lower-power version of Qi.

Non-charging MagSafe magnetically-coupled gadgets are also available.

A MagSafe case doesn’t block MagSafe attachments from coupling with the iPhone.
