Are you going to order the new iPhone 15?

Are you really planning to charge your 15 with the original iPhone charging block, or am I missing something?
I'm old school. I only prefer charging an iPhone with a 5W charger. Overnight charging + Optimized charging kicks in. It's the little things that make me happy. Pure satisfaction!

Also, it never overheats my iPhone.

You get a new iPhone every year, right? Same as I do. Do you slow charge your Watch as well? Not making fun - genuinely curious.
 
No, I'm not sure that I know you at all if this is the set up you've purchased for your iPhone. If you're being serious, then that set up is a nightmarish fail.
I'm 100% serious. I just paid for it. I showed you guys the receipt.

This is going to be my setup to charge my iPhone 15 Pro Max.

Did anyone manage to buy a Lightning to USB Dongle?

MUQX3


as far as I can tell, I would need this, connected to 15PM, to be able to connect a lightning to headphone connector adapter , so I can plug in my 3.5mm wired headphones. I get the feeling apple doesn't want to sell me usb-c to headphone connector, they only want you to use wireless headphones. so, I probably won't buy one for this purpose and just let those wired headphones sit on the shelf.

I did buy one to use for lightning cables in the car.

Is this an invasion of the bodysnatchers situation? What is going on? I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone. If you really are going to use that 5 watt charger, then just buy a USB to USB C cable and forgo the adapter. That adapter is completely unnecessary.

Yes, I do. Since 2008. I ordered 2 iPhones for myself this year.

Yes, I slow charge my Apple Watch Ultra too. 5W Apple Charging adapter only. I just took this picture for you right now.

Kevin McCarthy (the actor) and Donald Sutherland would be proud.

How do you charge your iPhone without the charging block adapter. No way I'm using my Macbook to do that. That will be annoying.
