    Because if you want wireless charging it’s that or plastic and the latter certainly doesn’t make for a great premium product

      What? My phone has a metal back and charges wirelessly just fine, even with a case on it.

        I van assure you at the very least the part where the coil is situated has no metal backplate. While technically possible to charge wirelessly with a metal back the efficiency of the charging would drop into hell. Unless absolutely not otherwise doable it’s better avoided, not least of all because the back would heat up immensenly when using charging speeds that are remotely useful
