Whether you want to argue the heat is generated in the receiver coil
(inside the phone) or in the charger base, just where is the phone
positioned during wireless charging?  Atop the charging base.  Heat is
the enemy of lithium batteries.  Misalignment of the coils (in the
charger base and inside the phone in the receiver) generates heat.  

Don't know what charger base you are using.  Don't know if you are using
a smartphone with an included receiver coil and internal connection or
you bought one to slide inside the case and connect outside to the USB
port.  For the first case, the receiver is pretty much square with the
sides of the phone.  In the second case, who knows how the receiver will
be aligned inside the case after you slide on the back cover.  

Some chargers come with 3 coils to allow for more sloppy alignment of
the phone atop the charger.  Some single coil chargers have either a
light or tone to tell you when you have properly aligned the phone atop
the charger.  In either case, the intent is to increase efficient while
decreasing heat to prevent shortening of the battery's lifespan.
