You know it. Wireless charging and a Lightning "diagnostic port".
But seriously, what is wrong with purely wireless charging? They're using an industry standard. I just use the $5 Ikea wireless charging pad for my phone and it works just fine.
- function_seven 5y agoI bought a wireless charging pad when I got my phone. Haven't used it once after trying for a few days. 1. I can't use the phone while it's charging. Sometimes I want to do that. Even in bed. Even after I've laid my head down. 2. I have to put the phone on there just so for the coils to align. (Magsafe looks awesome in this regard, but I have a XR, so I'm out of luck) 3. It's slower than the plugin charger. 4. Half the time I want to charge my phone, I'm in the car, or at my desk, or somewhere else where my wireless charging pad isn't. If a phone was exclusively wireless charging, then I'd have to buy several doohickeys.
