Let’s get something clear: a wireless charger CANNOT disable an NFC chip. They are two VASTLY DIFFERENT TECHNOLOGIES.
A wireless charger is nothing more than a wire coil hooked up to electricity. That’s it. No smarts involved.
BMW must likely have an NFC chip also mounted in the same place which for some reason is disabling the NFC on the iPhone.
Maybe it’s trying to take a reading off the chip but after a while the iPhone disables the NFC because it doesn’t recognise the request? Or maybe Apple haven’t properly programmed properly? Who knows?
