Can you use this product if the phone is inside a plastic and rubberized case (like otterbox defender?) Does the magnet still work?

Hello, There is no Magnet Inside. So if the phone is inside a plastic and rebberized case, it is not safe to use.

I have a lifeproof case as well, & sadly the magnet doesn't work though the case. I put the magnet on the outside of the case since I don't like using the smart clip; even though it works just fine & doesn't affect the case.

The Defender sucks and the rubber around the phone will get loose. The plastic on the inside will chip the edges around the phone. It did to my mine. The protector will most likely work, I'm not sure about the responsiveness I've never done it but I don't recommend the Defender

I have not experienced aný problems with the magnetic catch or case. In fact, If I am not mistaken, thet magnetic part of the catch is located on the bottom of the case - beneath and away from the keyboard. Thus, I could not see how the magnet would impact the screen area. WIth that said, the catch does require attention to properly secure the case. Othewwise, I have not experienced any problems thus far.

Yes. There is a magnetic closure and it works quite well. I happen to be using this with an iPhone 5s with a Otter Box Commuter Series case and it works well with it. The bottom line is; you'll like it.

Considering that Magnets only affect mechanical storage devices, no! Your phone or device should be entirely Solid State Memory, or Flash memory. And those types of memory are not affected by small magnet fields like this one. I have had no problems with mine at all.

The magnet is on the mount, not the phone. There is only the non magnetized metal plate in the case, so it shouldn't be an issue.

No, not at all. The magnet is in the flap, which is attached to the front cover, and the flap wraps around to the back cover, where the other magnet is. My phone works perfectly with it.

Yes, my experience is that it works fine being w/ in a half inch or so. I have the Otterbox case and have never had an issue.

No. I've used this case for about 4 months now. My phone hasn't suffered any effects from the magnet. It's a great, sturdy case.

you just stick the metal strip on the outside of the case or phone. So, if you use a case, you stick the strip onto the outside of the case. If you don't use a case, you stick it on the outside of the phone. The metal strip is not huge or bulky and does not interfere with the phone usage. The magnet is stuck to the surface you want to attach the phone to. This device is awesome. I am going to order more for my childrens tablets just for when they are charging them to get them out of the way.

Yes... you just can't put a protective case on the phone! But yes it works... if you want I can see you one cheap I have 2 of them!

No, the magnet will not affect the phone in anyway. It will prevent you from charging wireless if you have a wireless charger like the qi

Yes. When I take the tablet out of the case it works perfectly well. When I put it back I have the same problem with the screen. And the areas of the screen that are affected right underneath the area where magnets are located in the case.

It depends on the case. It worked with the case I bought but it stated that in the case discretion. I liked the idea of the magnetic attachment but it failed after 90 days and they wouldn't warranty it. So I can't recommend it.

Hi Linda! The plastic holder is meant to hold your phone quite securely. It clicks into place and if held at any angle should stay in place. Of course, we cannot guarantee that if you drop your phone, that it will not break, as plastic may do that. As another customer mentioned here, if any part were to crack as well, that would also weaken the hold. If there's anything else, just let me know. I can be contacted directly via this link:
