I like my cf express type a to usbc transfer speeds on my 15 pro max 1tb thank you ; no way would I ever want a portless phone
No it doesn't. I have a Belkin 3-1 charger. I don't have to connect any cable to charge. Just connect the magnets and it's good to go. Unlike Apple's MagSafe charger, I don't need two hands to disconnect the iPhone from the Belkin Charger, or push it off with one of my fingers. Just pick it up and it comes loose. When it's connected to the charger, it goes into Standby mode, so it functions as an alarm clock on my nightstand.
So it doesn't only sound good, it is good.
Rip your battery but at least you‘ll have the opportunity to fry an egg at the same time.
I’ll personally stick to my old 5 w charger on my iPhone 15 Plus. Learned my lesson with charging my 12 Pro Max mostly via wireless charging and yes, I don’t replace my iPhone every other year or even 2 years anymore

no point in these compared to pluging the usb c. it is not like you are charging it meters away.
Apple needs to update their MagSafe charger. Needs a braided cable for starters, even better if should just be a puck with a USB-C port that you can use a 1m or 2m charge cable with.
People still believe in that myth ? I still have 100% battery, after 2 years and using wireless all the time
Anker says, "can" support. Are we sure they are just not doing some word marketing here. That is, that is can support if Apple allows vs, it will support based on their actual testing with a current iPhone? As Apple's site says will only be 7.5w so I'm doubtful.
Is the port stopping you? Blink twice if usbc is holding you hostage
I wouldn’t exactly call having a direct wired connection to tons of accessories stupid. There may be arguments for removing it but I believe the arguments for keeping it are stronger.
For example I listen to music over the wired connection all the time. If you care about sound quality and haven’t tried a wired connection vs Bluetooth in a while, try it.

You don't need to plug anything into your phone, but you need it to be waterproof? And free up space for what?
My guess is you are Anti Vax based on USB being replaced by "jab". It doesn't matter to me, to each their own, I just found it funny that your phone or computer replaced one word for the other.
The first Qi2 chargers are expected in late 2023
We're well into December 2023. How late in the year is "late"? The last day?
What is niche to you is a daily thing I had to do with my iPad and now my iPhone can do it. and what is so niche on taking advantage of a fast usbc port?
So it's useless to every photographer, musician, videogrpaher that uses the data port? Stop trolling.
Apple MagSafe already handles 15W. The Qi2 standard that these Anker chargers follow is just playing catchup.
first i think want to get this.. seem pretty step .. so buy a big diff version third party from our asop apple. the only annoy had to used original charger apple watch charge and put it.

then keep lightning and usb-c port side by side on the bottom. blink twice if lightning is holding you hostage.
no thanks.
