Yeah, also Apple doesn't support 10W fast wireless charging yet iirc only Samsung Huawei and xiaomi?
Hope so, Apple doesn't necessarily have the best track record on charging speeds and standards. Honestly surprised they didn't break the Qi charging standard on the iPhones too.
Not even just announced, it's in the informational pamphlets for the phones too. Apple could see a court case over this as it could be considered false advertising the way they pushed it coming this year.
Is it? Can you tell me why?
Here's what I've found in the past few months since I switched to wireless charging:
You can make it if you want. Dead or alive, if it's just a rumour my reaction isn't any more than a "k" but some people might be interested even if nothing is confirmed.
My late-nite phone habits don't line up with that at all. For instance, let's say I'm at 30% at the end of the day in bed, I'll read till it goes to the red sometimes (15%), plug it in, and keep reading for an hour or so. If I did that with the wireless charger, it would be dead within that hour or so.
I guess the other half of my experience is that my new wireless chargeable phone has a great new battery, and between that and the amount that I charge my phone so much more because of wireless charging's convenience, I'm never even close to 0% in the first place. I don't think I even drop below 80% most days.
You don't see the convenience of two or three devices that use completely different charge methods having one charge-all-mat for one cable-free simultaneous charge? Also, as the tech stands, you can only place these devices on targets for the charge to initiate. Needless to say that it can frustrate one if they place the device just a mm off, and come back to an uncharged electronic. Being able to freely place your phone on the mat without precision is key here.
I mean they're wholly different industries? On top of not having announced anything officially. Besides, I completely hope they do since we need as many options and tech competition as we can get in this sector.
I don't see how it could be worth more than 10 bucks extra, no, since it takes about 5 to 20 seconds to plug them all in and it doesn't have to be done daily. I'm all for the cable method if there is a large price difference.
Okay? Clearly the value proposition just isn't for you or your friend. Which is fine! But I simply wanted to answer why this particular tech would be considered a "gamechanger" for others like you asked. No matter how you look at it, three-device, target free charging is gamechanging for the wireless charging format compared to as it is now if it is something that interests you. Clearly it doesn't for you.
It really isn't. I just honestly thought maybe I was missing something, because to me, the convenience is way too little to have it be a game changer. Then again, I thought you were talking about "for mobile phones".
