I bought the Pitaka Note8 case & wireless vent-mount charger (pics inside)

First off, the money shots: https://imgur.com/a/j0CYk

I wanted a case where I could use a magnetic mount, but it needed to support wireless charging. $50 for the Pitaka is a bit steep, but it's not a cheap phone either. When I saw that they had a magnetic wireless charging mount for the car, I was sold.

The pics tell just about everything you'd want to know. It's a tight fitting case with a slightly matte finish/touch. I came from a Spigen thin fit case (the one with the Q-Bert steps on the back), and the Pitaka is night and day thinner.

I had ordered the twill one (the only one available at the time), and they came back saying it was sold out, and would I like this "plain" (their words) one. When it showed up, I was pleasantly surprised.

  • Doesn't provide any screen protection if your phone is upside-down.
  • The case comes in below the crease of the screen, so I don't think it would interfere with any screen protector on the market.
  • Wireless charging has worked on every charger I own (3 of them)
  • The magnetic mount is awesome, and the fact that it charges is a huge bonus. Very impressed with it. It came with a magnetic quick-release cable as well, which was a nice touch.

Can't think of much else to add, but feel free to ask anything you'd like.
