Does this case obstruct the charger?

Yes this case obstructed the charger. My friend's case did not but my case did. I had to remove it to charge on the first day and it broke.

The only charger you can use is the one that comes with the iPhone. If you have an aftermarket charger, they are wider and fatter, and it WILL NOT fit. You also have to unscrew a button to be able to plug in your earbuds. The chances of losing this button are high. In my opinion, it's a bad design.

No, it has a hatch that opens up to make the charging port available. However, I recommend adding an adaptor/extender (sold separately--either LifeProof or generic) to the charging cord. Otherwise, you have to tug on the cord, itself, in order to unplug the phone, and I imagine that would damage the wires inside after a while. Also, I've found that my case needs to have the hatch opened when I talk on the phone or people are constantly saying they don't hear me well. My wife's identical LifeProof case hasn't given her that problem.

No, the charge port opens fully for the standard iPhone charger. At least mine does, not that I have a way to charge it on my bicycle...

no it does not obstruct the wall charger but it does obstruct the car charger.

No, there's a tab that lifts. I personally hate/like it cause I had a charger that didn't work great and the tab actually kept it in place lol but it gets annoying sometimes. But the case is totally worth it. I love it and it's very protective.

Yes! It is super snug! Absolutely no wiggle room, which is kind of a problem..because my charger looks like it barely fits in the front pocket..it's a tight squeeze!

yes. the outside of the case is a bit larger. fits the charger ok. but the only complaint would be that sometimes its hard to push the volume and screen off buttons. but I like the case anyway

I have this case & LOVE it! I have to slide my keyboard a little bit to get charger plugged in but I do not have to remove it entirely! It's really not that big a deal! And it works a very long time between charges which is great! Hope this helps!

With my normal charger, yes. I do not need to remove the case to charge my phone.

Yes, there is access to the charger port without removing the tablet from the case. The opening is on the right side of the product, just under the handle. The handle is a little bit in the way but it can easily be bent out of the way.

We hage many chargers at home, fortunately. But yes, a few of them have a wider/thicker plastic that will prevent them from fitting in the case. As I had just gotten a replacement S3 and charger, I can say that it fit snugly. I am assuming it is the older, perhaps dumb-phone, chargers that may have been the issue. The ones I got with each of my S3's fit.

Nope. There is a little silicon flap that opens right up. Works with the charger that came with the phone and 3 other chargers in my house

Hey, Kathy. I have this and it does not impede the charger plug. It's a quality piece; very happy with the purchase.

The case is open on the side and the charger will fit with the case on. This is a very nice case, fits well and serves its purpose.

Yes, there is a flap over the charging port that protects it but can be lifted up to connect the charger.

The case has a small "door" that opens up to reveal the charging pirt. But the problem is that the thickness of the case (or size of the door) prevents the charge connector from seating into the charging port.

It doesn't sit 100% flush. If you look at the picture, you'll see a bump (pimple) on either side. That stops the charger from going any further in, and it gives you just enough to pull it out.

Yes, some of the ports are either partially or substantially covered. I have to remove the device from the case to charge it.

Definitely and there's an opening for the charger that many covers don't have. It also fits tight and doesn't slip off.

All cases allow you to have access to your 'charger' area since you have to plug your phone in to charge it. That area is never blocked. I have had several different cases and all of them worked with my car charger. You should have no problem.
