How to say you're in a different tax bracket than most people with one comment.

Apple will probably use the mmwave antennas and some special dock to do really quick data transfers from it when fully portless

There's 23w wireless charging with pixel 7 pro. That's faster than what most people have for charging blocks.

And I think you vastly underestimate how many regular iPhone users make sure they use quick charge... Which is only done with USBc and a lightning cable.

And that's at 20w which is what the iPhone 13 maxes out at unless it's a pro which is 27w but only for a short period.

Apple won't go fully portless until qi charging is more widespread and most wireless charging use is tossing it on the charger before bed or in the car.

It's the tactic they used with usbc->lightning cables. Toss it into the eight, let USBc market mature for two years then start including the cable in iPhone 11s.

Magsafe wallets; pop it off and toss it on the charger.

No the fee is for companies to make products that are tested to be safe with whatever extra things apple is gonna toss onto the Qi2 standard for iphones specifically. For instance If I took an apple magsafe charger and tried to use it with android for instance it cap out at like 5w of power. But a regular certified QI charger would still hit at least 7.5w on an iphone.

And while it's speculation, moves like this would seem to indicate that it's what they're working towards. It's not like that speculation comes out of nowhere.

Apple wants to use magsafe as a means to get rid of the USB-C Port (on iphone 15 and above) so this makes sense that they'd just drop the magsafe part into the next standard. (It'll help keep the regulations that they've faced with lightning cables down to a minimum this way)

Lets other companies build up on magsafe attachments, apple then gets to license out magsafe compliance for iphones or someshit like they do with lightning cables.

It'll also let more consumers build up magsafe charging docks and make those more widespread which will enable apples transition to portless even easier.

But anyway fucking hype: magsafe has been one of the best things for mounting phones onto stuff in such a long time.

Right, that's why you seriously thought she was gonna lose lmfao. You had to be getting that idea from somewhere

Wow you think it's about rubbing it in?

Nah dude it's to really emphasize the fact that you live in a hyper conservative bubble and that your perception is heavily biased by it.

Have you seen it yet?

Yeah given the current layout of ma that isn't the case this year and the fact that you think that makes me think you live in a hyper conservative reality bubble
