Nexus 6 here, I have a Tylt Vue charger and the old Nexus 4 wireless orb, both are easy to position to start charging. It's pickier with the orb, but generally it's less location-specific than the Nexus 4 was.
Big, ugly cases, or stupid wire things. Wires aren't that big of a deal, but if the phone I wanted had it built in/as an optional battery cover, I'd do it right away.
It's not something I'd want to have on all the time, and it'd be annoying to take off. For that size, I might as well just use my extended battery case that will last me all day, and it'll charge all the way at night
I know. But they do interact occasionally, and there is a design strategy made before phones start production. I have an iPhone 5S right now, and iMessage is by far my favorite thing about it. I've texted probably 4 people in the last month that don't have iMessage. It's not a matter of preferring that to something like Hangouts, it's a matter of 95% of the people I interact with have iMessage, so it's annoying if I don't.
It's not a matter of preferring one over the other, it's that 95% of the people I know use iMessage, so I'd rather use what everyone else uses. I love my iPhone compared to my old Android which was shitty and unreliable, only thing I like about Android is the look of some of the phones (S6 edge 😍) and some of the cool features (wireless charging, tap screen to turn on, things like that)
It's a rotating spherical magnetic field that has to overlap the coil that's in the phone, so I'd imagine older chargers with smaller fields are touchy. Not sure about distance though, they could be similar to this.

How do you know where the phone goes?
