It's incredibly nice to get actual people's names associated with declarations.
We had so many years of "entity X said that" to only later discover the journalist talked to the intern.
On losing USB-C, it would totally be on brand to get rid of the port on the standard model and only get it on the Pro line. Except they skipped magsafe on the current 16e, which is kinda baffling, but they could still bring it back on portless models.
- rowanG077 2y agoIt's just a press officer, she has nothing to do with the declaration.
- makeitdouble 2y agoWe at least know it's a veted statement from someone who's authorised to talk to the press.

For anyone reading who may be confused, the 16e does support Qi-based wireless charging at 7.5W, so it’s very possible that a future portless non-Pro iPhone might not have MagSafe either.
- makeitdouble 2y agoThanks. Yes it has wireless charging, but without the magnets. So, Qi but not Qi2. The magnets can probably be set in the cases, like android phones do, but it's definitely not elegant nor as reliable. Wireless charging without the magnets is a real PITA, the bad press wouldn't be worth it for a brand that relies so much on marketing IMHO.
