Following on from a comment in another thread I thought I'd post some info about the Phone box (if it can be called that less the wireless charging).
Dimension wise it is:
And here's an S21 (Blue case) and iPhone 12 in the 'box', please excuse the disgusting state of my screens!
In terms of the once useful armrest from the 8v, there is space for a cable to pass from the 12v socket to the armrest, but the size is much reduced.
I've seen a few 90 degree cable options and will have a look for a wireless pad to drop in.
As has been mentioned, wireless charging isn't a showstopper, but for longer days out its a glaring lift by Audi from the spec. I would've rather it come with one key for now and have the wireless pad, especially with wireless Android Auto and Carplay available.
I'll post some options once done, one thing I do know already is that a straight USBC to USBC or Lightening cable doesn't fit without angling the phone and risking cable rubbing on the glosswork.
