Thanks for your reply parusia ! :)

Then Spen work perfectly with the case because no magnet inside and only metal plate inside them.
With MagMount Qi, Pitaka said to me that there is not metal plate in the packaging but there is one with MagMount without QI ... I'm so sad with this because i wish to buy the MagCase + MagMount QI and i wish to be compatible with other case then metal plate is a big point for me for to put between my Note 8 and other cases. :(

Pitaka explain also to me that MagMount is not compatible with circle air vent of my car (Mercedes CLA) ... i dont' understand why because i read a review of a owner of Kia Stinger and MagMount work inside circle vent of his car !!!

Have you a link to buy a car charger compatible with fast charging (i hope to find one as smalest as possible) ? Have you also a link with cable compatible with fast charge ? Pitaka said to me it's micro usb in the MagMount QI ...

Hi, wireless charging could be affected by the metal plate (check this blog https://goo.gl/C1ubGD to know why) so we only added the metal plate to the MagMount, but if you really want the metal plate, please feel free to contact our customer service again to find a solution. Or before you purchase something else next time, we can send one to you for free.

Regarding the car charger and cable for fast charging, just make sure the charger supports QC 3.0, and both of the charger and the cable from branded manufacturers. By the way, we'll make those 2 accessories with PITAKA's logo on in the near future so that you don't need to look around anymore.

Hope this helps.

1. Yes, just tell the customer service you need a metal plate (free) as I promised here.

2. The mounting base of CD slot or car vent can be disassembled and exchanged, please send a picture to the support team as well so the technician there could help you judge the situation.
Regarding the car vent MagMount Qi on Mercedes CLA, it really depends on the air vent of different cars, you can exchange for another mounting base if the unit you have is still brand new once you found it's not compatible with the car.

3. We don't have a specific date yet about the car charger and the cable, but you can pay close attention to our social media to know the news.

4. Now we only made MagCase Pro for iPhone X, it's expected to be released next month.

5. MagBar Pro will be on Kickstarter at the end of this month. you can sign up here to get the early discount https://www.ipitaka.com/collections/magbar-pro

Any other questions, feel free to ask.

Ive dropped my phone a number of times (butter fingers) and so far this case has protected it perfectly
In an earlier question about how well this case protects the phone I replied it wouldn't because it was too thin.

Well, I dropped my phone from about 1.5 metres the other day on to a hard tiled floor. The phone landed on the long edge and not single mark anywhere on the phone or case. :good:

1. Box layer for MagWallet UE still has 2 pieces in stock, you can contact the customer service to buy one. (hurry up, it might get sold out soon)

2,. MagBar Pro is expected to be available on Kickstarter on the 25th of this month, prices are choosable, you can choose the kit you want the most.

3. They will send you free metal plate as requested, and if everything is settled down, your order will be shipped out today. (now you only need to decide to add a box layer to your order or not)

Best wishes
Lily

This is awesome, having an actual representative from the company on here to respond to and answer questions. I like it when companies do the little extra effort to help potential customers.
