My XS is in the Apple leather case and charges without overheating in other wireless chargers.

I think there are three issues:
- poor ventilation even with drawer open
- charging under load: phone will become erratic / drop ACP when in the charger and running Waze plus music
- positioning of the phone relative to coils (explaining why not all phone models seem to be impacted)

I am charging via cable on longer trips.
