I want the phone but also want a case and am curious if wireless charging will still work.

While I don't own a 928, I do have a Lumia 822 and it charges fine wirelessly with a case on it. I have used two different cases without issue and a friend has an 822 in an Otterbox Defender case that also works fine.

Mine does with the rubber case that Verizon sells.

I have 822 and a trident case and it works fine with it on.

It should work. I had an 822 and it would charge through an otterbox and my 8X charges through a case also.

I've got an incipio case with a dual (soft silicone with hard plastic snap on) case on it and have had no issues with charging.

[MikeLip]

Yes. I have used a TPU and a Poetic slim case and you can charge through either.

I have a 928 with a Trident case and it works just fine.

I have the case from verizon and it works fine

[rdavenp3]

I have the Poetic case and it works fine

I'm using an otter box on my 920, charges just fine.

It works not only through my case (was using day-one Verizon case until today - now Poetic Atmosphere), but in addition to that, through the wood in my monitor stand at work. I built a monitor stand for my two monitors out of 2x4s (on the sides, to raise up, as the "legs"), and 1x8 (for the top). On the underside, I routed out a section with a keyhole bit, and I can slide my charger into the slot created. The phone charges through the approx 1/8 - 3/16" of wood and the case, together.

If it didn't, could they truly call it "wireless charging"?

[Robert Carpenter]

Wireless charging works through magnetic induction. Magnetic.... therefore magnets. If the material doesn't affect magnetism, then it doesn't affect wireless charging. Metals will mess with it, but materials that aren't magnetic, like wood, rubber, or plastic, will be fine.

What does affect wireless charging is distance. If the distance between the phone and the charger is too great, the phone will not charge. Yay science! :)

Just chiming in to say that it works with the Incipio Feather case for the 928.

Wireless charging works with every single case unless for some god awful reason you found a case that has more than a half inch backside to it! It doesn't matter what you have between your phone and charger (with the exception of certain metals), if it is within a half inch, it will charge!

Not magnets, but magnetic field induced using inductance of a coil. Yah, science!

I have the 928 with an Incipio Feather case and it charges just fine on the Nokia Fat Boy charging pillow.

The material doesn't have to be magnetic to interfere. All it has to do is be a conductor. As an obvious example, a piece of aluminum will mess it up and that's likely why the HTC One doesn't have Qi charging. It can't with an aluminum back. Also certain colorants in plastics will interfere. The pad would simply induce a current in the back, turning the power into heat. Not exactly what you want.
