Not even by using some sort of O-ring to seal the camera “block” when concealed?
As said, having the phone certified ip68 would anyway cost too much for the project, so even something that just “helps” would be great.

I feel that to the current dev stage wireless charging is kinda pointless and leads to an increased price.
Pointless because even tho you can throw your phone in charge, you actually can’t: you need to accurately place it onto the coils.
Then you need them to be connected to a phone charger… using a cable 😀
Then you can’t use the phone even for a brief call without moving it out of range. This would lead to a battery degrade quite bigger because of the many more recharging cycles you are gonna perform.
Instead, I would go for a very fast charging protocol. If standard it would be even better, cause we like standards 😀 (yes, I’m looking at you Quick Charge 4.0 with PD).

You have my support from UK, and Italy as well 😀

I tend to agree with @leorioki, def 5 inches would be perfect.
For the mockups, may I suggest a free STL (copyrighted, of course), that everybody can download and 3d print at home?
It would even make possible to test the popping up camera module, which sounds super interesting as well.
