Audi iPhone case cuts the cord on in-car charging

Audi has just unlocked even more of the latest iPhone's in-car capability with a new wireless charging case that works in conjunction with its optional Audi Phone Box connection and charging system. When the Qi-enabled cover is fitted to the latest iPhone 6 and 6s models they can simply be placed in the centre console to start the charging process, without the need to plug in a separate cable via the USB port.

This innovative feature also works outside of the car on any base station that also has Qi functionality.

Branded with the four Audi rings on the front and rear, the Audi wireless charging case has a light, slimline design that allows unhindered operation of the iPhone's camera lens and flash, headphone port, speakers and sensors. The small Qi receiver clip on the bottom of the case can also be easily removed to allow full access to the lightning port for charging on the move.

Featuring a lacquered polycarbonate finish that is robust and durable, the case also protects against light knocks and light scratches. It is Apple MFi certified, having met the required performance standards. Audi Phone Box is already compatible with a wide range of Qi-enabled mobile phones, such as the Samsung Galaxy or Nokia Lumia series, without the need for a separate case. The Audi Phone Box with Qi functionarlity will be availabe for order on the A3, A4, A6, A7, Q2, TT and R8.
