...along with a cool nightstand for the phone that uses Magsafe and
let's me make the phone into my bedside clock.
:-)
I have one of those too and I love that feature.
FWIW you don't need a specific stand. Just pop your phone on its side while
charging (even wired charging) and you activate the feature. I prefer not
to use wireless charging.
Oh, I'm aware.
It's just that simply putting your phone on its side and having it
reliably stay there isn't always easy. If you want it to actually stay
put, you probably need a stand. So why not one that charges it too?
Why don't you like wireless charging?
It's inefficient and may reduce the life of the battery.
OK, it's inefficient.
By how much?
Not sure. I think I've seen figures of 10%.
Put it into concrete terms how much more electricity it uses and what
that costs you.
It's not the personal cost, but the global increase in demand when we
should be doing literally everything we can do reduce our energy use.
Again: what percentage of global energy use is charging smartphones?
But how can it possibly reduce the life of the battery?
Wireless charging induces increased heat in the battery which we know can
reduce the lifetime of batteries. It may be minimal, but I do find that the
phone struggles to reliably last a day. So any loss in capacity should be
avoided.
Sorry, but you're going to have to produce a citation for that.
Regardless of whether the source is the coil of the wireless charger, or
from a charging port, the current and voltage that are delivered to the
battery are still controlled by the charging circuit.
It's a personal choice.
Great.
Don't try to justify personal choices with bullshit statistics and
unsupported claims.
