My guess is that it uses the power cord that originally charges the BMW phone.

I guess I have to wait until I get out of my iPhone 7+. Yup...I know. I'm way off the grid. But it still works....and I watch my $$$$. Read....Cheap.

Yup, awesome! Hope the arm rest works with this. Also, wonder if it will slide around. Someone buy this and test it out. Ready in 120 days according to website?

Interesting!

I'm not the sharpest crayon in the box, but I'm not the dullest either - can someone explain to me the fanfare of wireless charging? It's less energy efficient than a cord, there is heat with some chargers that can negatively affect the battery, and if you want to use your phone you have to keep it on the charging pad (compared with being able to use the phone when charging with a cord, but are limited by the cord's length).

The only downside I see of cords is them wearing out/breaking/getting lost.

My first wireless charging phone was a Nokia Lumia 830. I got the Nokia desk charger and the Nokia car windscreen mount holder along with it. It all comes down to convenience and less loose cables dangling around. Whenever I got home, I could just drop the phone on the stand. That was it. Even more convenient was the car windscreen mount. I used the Nokia for navigation which drained battery quickly. Being able to just drop the phone in the mount (for which I had routed a cable out of sight) was so easy. And since there was no cable dangling from the phone, it was easy to take out/put it in and the interior just looked and felt cleaner. No more cables flying everywhere or trying to wrap themselves around the shifter like some kind of anorexic snake.
