The GM-52™ Standard: The core of every lxCase™

You can’t see it, but you can feel it.

At the heart of every lxShield case—whether it’s the invisible lxClear™, the tactile lxSmoke™, or the rugged lxCarbon—lies the GaussMatrix™ GM-52 Core.

We didn’t just glue magnets into plastic. We engineered a magnetic array designed to solve the biggest problem with modern phone accessories: inconsistency.

What is GM-52?

GM-52™ stands for GaussMatrix (N52 Grade). It is a proprietary magnetic alignment standard developed to exceed the pull-force and thermal efficiency requirements of standard MagSafe and Qi2 accessories.

While most competitors use standard N35 or N45 magnets to cut costs, lxCase uses exclusively N52 Neodymium—the strongest grade of permanent magnet commercially available for consumer electronics.


The 3 pillars of performance

1. The Grip (1,800g pull force)

Have you ever hit a pothole and watched your phone fall off its car mount? That’s the result of weak N35 magnets.
The GM-52 Core delivers up to 1,800g of vertical pull force. That is roughly 60% stronger than the official OEM guidelines require.

  • The Result: Your wallet stand doesn’t slide. Your car mount doesn’t drop. Your battery pack doesn’t wiggle.

2. The Snap (Precision alignment)

Strength means nothing without aim. The “Matrix” in GaussMatrix refers to the specific orientation and spacing of the 38-magnet array. We calibrate the polarity to ensure a “zero-drift” connection.

  • The Result: You don’t have to hunt for the sweet spot on your charger. It snaps into place blindly, every single time.

3. The Flow (Thermal efficiency)

Wireless charging generates heat. Misalignment generates more heat. When a phone isn’t perfectly aligned with the charger coils, energy is lost as waste heat, which degrades your battery health over time.
Because GM-52 locks your device into perfect geometric alignment, energy transfer is optimized.

  • The Result: Faster charging speeds and a cooler phone battery.

Universal compatibility

The GM-52 Core is engineered to be platform-agnostic. While it is fully compatible with Apple’s MagSafe ecosystem, it is also ready for the future of Qi2 wireless charging on Android devices.

  • Works with all MagSafe Chargers
  • Works with Magnetic Wallets & Grips
  • Works with Magnetic Car Mounts
  • Ready for iPhone, Samsung (S-Series), and Pixel

The promise

When you see the GM-52™ badge, you know the case isn’t just a piece of plastic. It’s a precision tool.

Stronger. Cooler. Faster.
