Flexible placement

Should you go magnetic?
You don't get as portable as the Maxboost Car Mount, especially when combined with the magnetic-mount-compatible Spigen Style Ring POP.
However, metal magnets interfere with Qi wireless charging, so I've been hunting down some magical Qi mounts to use instead. The one that has stood out there is the iOttie Easy One Touch Qi Wireless Mount, with its easy one-touch release and preferable vent mount configuration.
