I was under the impression that Apple was behind the curve on wireless. My wife and I bought our phones at around the same time, her iPhone doesn't have wireless, my Android does.
Bear in mind, not all Android do; that was one reason I didn't buy the Pixel when I bought my phone; no wireless charging was a deal breaker.
- pfranz 7y agoApple was a bit "late," iPhone 8 (2017) started it, but they still sold (and maybe still sell?) plenty of phones that don't support it. Earlier on things kind of coalesced around 2 separate charging standards; Qi and PMA. Starbucks went all-in on PMA. I don't think I've seen a Starbucks with any wireless charing in years. So there were some big investments in the "wrong" tech.
