- baybal2 6y agoThose 65W Navitas based chargers are actually all exact copies of the reference design, and most are made by a single factory. GaNFETs are there mostly for the marketing, and don't make any much more difference than few percents efficiency at such power level.
- aidenn0 6y agoI'd have to look at the numbers, but a few percent points of efficiency can be a big difference in the power (and thus heat) dissipation of the device; going from 90% to 92% efficiency reduces the power dissipated in the device by 20%.
- voltagex_ 6y agoThey won't let you buy those batteries in non-US locations. The "suggested alternative" is to file down a Samsung battery.
- freedomben 6y agoAs appalling as this is, I kind of love it. Pine stuff is for hackers 8-)
- anderspitman 6y agoI love that the battery is replaceable. Though I wish mobile devices included tiny backup batteries that give you ~1min to swap the battery without having to reboot the device. This would especially be useful for my gopro which I often use for long captures that I don't want to interrupt. But it would also be nice on my PinePhone.
