Considering some Tesla Model Y owners have reported issues with the factory wireless charger, especially with larger phones and cases, what's the most reliable and fastest aftermarket wireless charger upgrade? Given reports of improved performance in later Model Y's, are there specific models known to fit seamlessly in the center console without interfering with other functions, like those discussed on Tesla Motors Club and Reddit? Do any aftermarket options offer faster charging than the factory charger?

Yeah, the alignment issue is basically why the OEM charger acts up with bigger phones. Honestly, even with an upgrade like the Jowua Wireless Charging Pad, you're still mostly limited by the power output of the internal USB ports, which is usually around 15W. I'm always a bit cautious about 3rd party pads overheating the phone, especially during summer or with a thick case on it. If you're looking for real speed, stick to a high-quality cable directly into the USB-C port, as wireless is never gonna be as efficient or fast as a wired connection anyway tho.
