Center console phone area dimensions?

Does anyone have the dimensions of the the wireless charging area? I'm wondering if the upcoming 6.7" iPhone 12 Pro Max and 6.9" Note 20 Ultra will fit.

It seemed pretty tight around my iphone 8 plus sized phone, but if others are saying that an s20 ultra fits, then it's actually way bigger.
But the phones you mentioned, even if they fit, due to their huge batteries you are better off with the cable charging, because on my 3000mAh phone it takes like teo hours for 50% charge, meaning for note or pro max it will take 5 or so hours to charge.
Tbh I'm even considering getting a quick charging battery to keep in the car and charge the phone from there for when I need the battery life.

If you put a case on, do you think it would still fit in your g20?

I currently have the Note 10+ and am planning to get a
Galaxy Note 20 Ultra which is rumoured to measure L 164.8 x W 77.2mm

The S20 Ultra measures L 166.9 x W 76 .

How much of a gap around the S20 Ultra do you have after its placed in the tray?

My S20 Ultra just barely fits inside without a case however with a pretty slim case (I am using the Samsung official leather case) I have to pretty much push the phone into the slot so it can start charging and pull it out to get my phone out.

With my older S10+ it fit in just fine with a Spigen Neo Hybrid case so I used it often for the digital key and to charge it wirelessly. However with my S20 Ultra I don't even bother (also BMW never updated the Connected app to get the digital key to show as compatible. No idea why since it has the same tech and the same T-Mobile carrier).

hmm I just preordered the Note 20 Ultra. I'm slightly concerned now.

Same here. i also ordered the Note 20 ultra. will look to get a slim case.
Positive is that its not as tall as the S20 Ultra so i am hoping it will fit with a slim case...
Samsung has provided the following dimensions
L 164.8 x W 77.2 x 8.1 mm.

Just watch this comparison video and it looks like the Note 20 Ultra is just a smidge taller.

The s20 is a bit taller and thicker, while the note 20 is wider, but if the s20 fits then the note20 will as well.

Agreed with the above 2 posts. It looks like the Note 20 Ultra is a tad shorter than the S20 Ultra. So it should fit just fine without a case since the S20 Ultra fits however you just have to be careful about the case you put on.

I'd give this case a go if you're like me and are careful with your phone but still need a case to prevent any wear and tear scratches. If BMW ever decides adding the digital key functionality to the S20 line I'd probably get one of these to see if it fits better.

Does Samsung's LED View Cover EF-NN985 fit in a BMW G20?

I just found this thread and have to ask (maybe someone already knows) - does the Samsung Note 20 Ultra 5G still fit while it's in the respective LED View Cover?

I couldn't find the dimensions for the EF-NN985 cover (even contacted Samsung). Wouldn't want to order & return one just to see if it fits.
