    That would maybe solve it if you have 5 phones in your store, but I really don’t want to be the person that has to “go charge and update the iphones in storage again” if they store hundreds of phones and each needs to be placed on a charging station for an unknown amount of time “until it beeps” one by one… 😅

    The stationproblem you mention however is easily fixed by making it diagonally with a fitting edge the box perfectly fits in, so you can just slide in the box and gravity + edge puts it in the right spot. Add a big sticker for employees that states which direction and done. 😅

      You can’t wirelessly charge on a narrow edge, so storing the phone in the packaging at an angle will not work for wireless charging. You need a flat side of the phone to be parallel and flush to the side of the packaging, otherwise the wireless coil will not work.
