Isn't that waste of energy? We live in an energy crisis, so is it really feasible to waste it in wireless charging?

  It doesn't really seem like it's worth caring about the costs of the charging of iphones: https://blogs.oracle.com/utilities/post/how-much-does-it-cost-to-charge-an-iphone https://blogs.oracle.com/utilities/post/how-much-does-it-cos... https://www.knowyourmobile.com/user-guides/iphone-battery-sizes/ https://www.knowyourmobile.com/user-guides/iphone-battery-si... Even if their charging became half as efficient, it would still be a rounding error compared to the rest of our energy usage.

    And if every minor usage of energy considers itself a rounding error, on aggregate the combined waste rivals that of a major one.

      Nope, transportation and heating will still dominate.

      But we're not talking about every minor usage of energy. We're talking about charging iphones.
