Their new charger with the ring magnet wouldn‘t be possible if they are forced to support a common one. I mean they could add it but almost nobody would use it if something like usb-c or standard qi charging is a european requirement.
- octopaulus 5y agoWhich one is this?
- addicted 5y agoI’m guessing it’s the shitty one you need to own if you want to recharge your Apple Watch, for example. There’s not much worse than having to snap your Apple Watch into that piece of crap. Of course, this claim isn’t even true. You could have a device that is a magnetic ring which plugs into the USB charger, which then can charge your Apple Watch in the shitty non standard way Apple wants you to. Also, this only applies to cell phones from what I can tell.

The magnet forces the iPhone into the correct position for optimal wireless loading. The new iphone has a ring magnet in it‘s back to the charger jumps into place.
