my wife swears by hers - makes it much more comfortable to hold while thumb-scrolling. She's not really one to put her phone in her pocket, though. If it's not in her hand or put down beside her, it's in her purse.

I don't know if you're unfamiliar or not but it flattens out.

No it doesn’t. At least, it doesn’t go flat enough that it doesn’t disrupt wireless charging.

Fair, just that in the pictures there it's only shown extended or without perspective.
