if the iPhone went fully port-less the inefficiency of wireless charging would completely negate the envimorental factors that Apple used to justify removing the power brick
They're likely doing it because new EU regulations are requiring USB-C on all devices, which is actually a good idea. Apple doesn't wanna do that so they're gonna ditch the port altogether.
The amount of energy that your phone uses is incredibly small when you compare it to it's manufacturing. The iphone battery holds around 5Wh of energy, so charging your phone for a year is ~1.8kWh. It's estimaded that manufacturing a phone requires 288kWh of energy. That's why improving manufacturing and recycling is WAY more important then device or charging efficiency. Ofc it would be best to use phones longer and buy less new stuff. But Apple doesnt like that...
A few months ago when I got my 12 mini, I got a knock off MagSafe charger puck off Amazon for about $20. It does the same MagSafe animation and fast 12 watt charging that the official one supports, and even came with a brick. No idea what magic their doing to make that happen, but I’m happy with it.

He's referring to the fact that comparing mAh values is pointless, as different companies rate them at different voltages. One should be comparing Wh values instead.
@@HugoMak Normally USB power banks use a single cell or parallel cells which gives you the typical 3,7V with it's corresponding mAh. Apple seems to use 2 cells in series, so around 7,4v. This is less common and since most USB batteries use 3,7V you can reasonably compare them with it. But yes Wh is pretty much always preferable.
This is my favourite channel to watch when I want to consume Apple content. Jonathan is very likeable and you can tell that he's honestly passionate about the topics that he speaks about.
I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the effort you put into these videos. It’s so nice to see that even in 2021 someone can come to a very crowded space (Apple tech videos) and offer a fresh tech with thoughtful, quality production. You’re my new go-to for sending easy to digest but thorough content to family members who don’t quite get it.

1:58 1.46Ah × 7.62V = 11.1252VAh ≈ 11.13Wh Makes perfect sense, what's the problem?? Amp-hours are only comparable when the voltage is the same (which they usually are; Li-Ion 2S is typically around 7.4V), the value you should look at is watt-hours which is a unit of energy. (1W × 1s = 1J) The Anker one is only 1S (3.7V), so it doesn't have 3.4x (5A/1.46A) the storage but actually just 1.6x (18.5Wh/11.13Wh).
Yeah I was wondering too... I'm not expecting everybody to have some basic knowledge of high school-level electronics but I feel like tech reviewers should know the definition of DC electrical power
The wall mount at the end would be amazing when paired with a rfid chip. iPhone Shortcuts can be made to do any shortcut action when they pair with specific RFID chips. So, for example, you could make your iPhone turn on an egg timer when you set it on a countertop holder, or perform home automation tasks when attached to the wall. Actually can you do a video on the Shortcuts ecosystem, especially on RFID uses.
But in that case why wouldn't you plug it in? It's more efficient and healthier for.your phone. I use wireless charging too, but in a case like that you should use a wire
1:58 So, 1,460mAh = 1.46 Ah (just divide by 1,000). It's also rated at 7.62v and 11.13Wh. Notice that 11.13/7.62=1.46. That's all there is to it. This works because Wh (watt hours) = Ah (amp hours) * v (volts)
I saw Madison in the Rig episode so long ago and how much people wanted her to work for LTT. Now seeing her as the Social Media Coordinator in LTT makes me happy.
I love using MagSafe but I really hate the name. MagSafe on the MBP was awesome. If you caught yourself on that cable the cable would just pop off. The laptop wouldn’t go flying. The socket wouldn’t be damaged. MagSafe with the iPhone 12 is really cool. It feels like the future more so than previous wireless charging (because of magnets). But it really should have just been called AirPower.
Yeah, there's no "safe" element to it like with the MPB. I think the point was to take advantage of the old MagSafe's to create hype at launch. If that was the case, it definitely worked.
The screw mount might work best in industrial settings where the user could snap it to a wall near where they work. You don't have it to fish it out of a pocket, it's already high up enough for Face ID to work fine. You can use it mostly hands free, and all the swipes to navigate are immediately accessible. I guess that could work anywhere anyone needs quick and easy access to their phone in a vertical orientation. I'd be interested to hear how people do use them.
You could drill the magnet into the wall in the kitchen so that you can see your recipes or watch recipe tutorial videos while you do what you need to do to follow along.
The MagSafe battery pack is sounding more and more like a great buy for me. I really really like the fact that it stops at 90% and can also recharge by plugging my phone in.
I still can't wrap my head around when Apple is so obsessed with their chip efficiency, but not on their chargers (no GaN) and charging method (wireless).
Considering how unrepairable apple batteries are even compared to the relatively annoying to repair smartphone market, they probably don't want the battery to wear out faster than the expected lifetime as it will with often fast charging. Other companies have countered this with more split cell designs that allow higher amperage charging with less wear, but that is more recent development.
Picked up (before the controversy) an Anker Magsafe puck with a USB-C connector on the end for my iPhone 12 and it's so awesome to be able to charge my phone without having the cable stuck in the bottom. Now the cable can stick out to the side in between my fingers!
Here is a simple explanation for the battery rating - Power = voltage × current. So let's divide the power 11.13W by the 7.62V, we get 1.460A (1460 milli ampere). The hour is added to the units to indicate capacity, by that I mean, if the battery delivers a constant 1460mA then it would last one hour, hence the 1460mAh rating. Same thing applies to the power rating as well.
Regarding the battery capacity, it makes sense: 11.13Wh divided by 7.6V results in 1.46Ah...at 7.6V! This is because it evidently uses two Li-Ion cells in series, while phones almost always have half that nominal voltage since they use a single cell, at circa 3.8V. This means that the battery pack's battery holds twice as much energy as a phone (or in general single-cell) with the same "Ah" capacity. The capacity in Wh are more comparable since they do not suppose a standard cell voltage.
The magnetic wall mount would be pretty good for your kitchen if you're cooking something.I never want my phone touching the messy table when im cooking not to mention finding a place where it can stand up(ipad gang with case augh)
I wish they used different names like 'MagGrip' for the whole lot, 'MagAttach' for just grips, 'MagCharge' for 5w and 'MagBoost' or 'MagBoostCharge' for fast charge. Hell even 'MagCharge5' and 'MagCharge15'
The new battery pack is exactly the way Moto Mods worked, without the data transfer. It's just a bit better though, since there's no pogo pins to align. I'm interested to see where MagSafe (or MagSafe Attach or whatever) goes. Will it come to the iPad? I've heard rumor that MagSafe could come back to the Mac in some way. I don't know, but I do know that magnets are fun and I like them.
Imma say something cursed but I love magsafe on my z fold 4, took me months but I found a mag safe sticker that's low profile clean can stick to silicone and matte plastics plus has super strong magnets so it holds freakishly well. It's so strong that I accidentally bought a non mag safe generic magnetic charger but just using about 30% of the ring works and holds it.
I use an android phone and I have never used an electric induction type of charging. Cost-wise their always more expensive and in some cases slower than wall chargers. But if there was a huge ecosystem for all the phones that would make any kind of phone usable with any MagSafe or other chargers I might want to enter this ecosustem.
13:42 That's exactly what I have in my shower, a magnet stick to the wall and an iPad with a magnet at its back, turned my iPad into an instant TV in the shower.
Uses for the Magsafe Wallmount: Once home-office is over I'd love to stick my work-phone on the wall and just use home-control as a light-switch on it.
The thing to keep in mind is that mAh is *not* a measure of energy storage. Powerbanks, smartphones and such market that number because it looks bigger on paper than an average Whr number for these types of products. But Whr is the actual spec we should be looking at if we want to understnad the energy capacity. 11.13Whr equates to being about as large as an iPhone 12 Pro battery. Another note to keep in mind is, unlike 'powerbanks', the MagSafe battery pack's first priority isn't really to charge up your phone, it's to act like an extension to your phone's internal battery. So, this will be a great option for the 12 mini users especially, who want to extend their battery lives. Unlike other powerbanks, this battery pack from Apple won't trigger/turn on iCloud backup or all sorts of other things that get activated when you charge your iPhone in a 'traditional' plug in way either, and therefore make the internal battery heat up less. So, I don't really get the hate around this product, except say for the price of it.
MagSafe is amazing, especially through third party accessories. I have a $15 Fully MagSafe Compatible car mount and its feels more scure then any other car mount I've used before and it's integeated right into iPhone and its cases.
11:29 All iPhone X/XS models fit perfectly fine in the case of some iPhone 11 model (X and XS fit in 11 Pro case, XR fits in 11 case, and XS Max fits in 11 Pro Max case) so there would be no point of making cases for the XS line and the only other iPhones with wireless charging are the 8/8+ so they would just need to make ones for those two phones.
I have a magsafe anker battery pack for my iphone 12 pro max and it works really well. It has a built-in stand too. Since it was half the cost of the $99 dollar apple magsafe battery pack I can deal with the slower charging
6 months later, I’m now able to find ‘MagSafe attach’ cases for my new S22, so I can continue to use my MagSafe charger and car mount. Things is getting better~
I got a magnet replacement kit for iPhone and put the magnets on the inside of the pixel 4 case. Works like a charm. I don't use the official apple MagSafe charge just 3rd party ones. I cant get 12W charging all the time. I just need to find a good car mount. If you want a pic hit me up.
I own a Essential phone PH-1 and when i used that thing, i don't anymore as it's broken, still turns on though, u get the point, well i had this magnetic charger with pins that were 3D printed, since the essential phone had this magentic accsesory thing with wireless usb 3 for the 360 camera, i used that connector also for charging, which was ofc magnetic, and I'd say, i loved it
i got the magsafe puck at launch with my 12 pro max and it’s like, whatever to be honest, it’s nice to plug and unplug with one hand and one swift motion, and the charging rate is pretty good but the pro max is also a battery behemoth so i almost never need to get a quick charge either way. i am, tho, a huge fan of the magsafe leather wallet, it’s not the best fit on the phone naked and i love to have the phone naked, but it’s great with the matching leather case and has truly replaced all my other wallets, especially if you never use cash or live in a crappy country without apple pay and/or digital id cards, etc. i could live without plugging in a lightning cable ever again, but the big problem is not the iphone, but those handful of accessories that still, for whatever reason, don’t have wireless charging or usb-c, like airpods max still needing a cable, or apple watch needing the proprietary cable puck thingy as well, like, there’s no easy one solution for everything that is not a behemoth taking space on your desk.
This channel is getting better and better. Fantastic host. I’m so glad LTT started making Mac specific content not just for the deep dives, but so the news comes without all the Apple hate eye rolling all the other hosts can’t help but express.
I love that this has great production quality that is totally its own thing from LTT. Jonathan does a great job. I seriously look forward to releases from this channel. Also music at the beginning is fire
I am still not able to finalize between wired chargers and third-party wireless chargers because wireless chargers heat up the apple devices and may cause the damage to the components. Second issue is that I need to manage couple of wires and need to by another charger (with two type C port or two different chargers). Third issue is that wireless chargers are always plugged in. So, even if I don’t want to charge my devices every time I place on these chargers, I don’t have any other choice other than to unplug the cable out of the chargers and place the devices afterwards. I really like if there would be a front facing switch or tap feature which turn on/off the individual charger like one for iPhone and another for Apple Watch just like color changing lights by just tapping on the same button.
That last mount, place it in the kitchen for recipes, videos, podcasts, remote, etc. Keeps it out of harms way while being able to use it during cooking. (Just make sure you either disinfect the phone or wash your hands after using it)
Wall mount for iPhone for house setup to control things like nest, sonos, etc. Mounted inside door. And as a backup phone for emergencies. Just winging that! My first thought was Toliet as well!

You could drill the magnet into the wall in the kitchen so that you can see your recipes or watch recipe tutorial videos while you do what you need to do to follow along.
The wall mounted one would work great in kitchens too
The MagSafe battery pack is sounding more and more like a great buy for me. I really really like the fact that it stops at 90% and can also recharge by plugging my phone in.
How are you so calm, quirky, funny and cool at the same time??
I still can't wrap my head around when Apple is so obsessed with their chip efficiency, but not on their chargers (no GaN) and charging method (wireless).
Considering how unrepairable apple batteries are even compared to the relatively annoying to repair smartphone market, they probably don't want the battery to wear out faster than the expected lifetime as it will with often fast charging. Other companies have countered this with more split cell designs that allow higher amperage charging with less wear, but that is more recent development.
Also, the chip efficiency affects battery life, which end users are more likely to notice than power wasteage from wireless charging
Picked up (before the controversy) an Anker Magsafe puck with a USB-C connector on the end for my iPhone 12 and it's so awesome to be able to charge my phone without having the cable stuck in the bottom. Now the cable can stick out to the side in between my fingers!
Here is a simple explanation for the battery rating - Power = voltage × current. So let's divide the power 11.13W by the 7.62V, we get 1.460A (1460 milli ampere). The hour is added to the units to indicate capacity, by that I mean, if the battery delivers a constant 1460mA then it would last one hour, hence the 1460mAh rating. Same thing applies to the power rating as well.
I really don’t want a portless future.. how are we going to put it into DFU mode?
There has been talk about having hidden pins inside the SIM card slot
They will probably change how DFU mode is performed.
@LengkapGan that would suck considering not everyone lives near an apple store.
@LengkapGan Also, that’s what they do at the apple store, put your phone into DFU mode :/
i think what Apple really want is to you buy a new iPhone
This dude deadass convinced Linus to make an Apple Orientation channel just to beef up his apple accessories.
He did a whole Mag safe charger joke with the whole office XD
great
God this video editing is on POINT! And the commentary is really nice!!
Regarding the battery capacity, it makes sense: 11.13Wh divided by 7.6V results in 1.46Ah...at 7.6V! This is because it evidently uses two Li-Ion cells in series, while phones almost always have half that nominal voltage since they use a single cell, at circa 3.8V.
This means that the battery pack's battery holds twice as much energy as a phone (or in general single-cell) with the same "Ah" capacity.
The capacity in Wh are more comparable since they do not suppose a standard cell voltage.
The ease of use is what I really love about MagSafe. I think it’s reasonable to expect Apple to eventually ditch cord charging altogether eventually.
The last sticky would be an amazing hack for watching video on the plane or for kids in the car
The magnetic wall mount would be pretty good for your kitchen if you're cooking something.I never want my phone touching the messy table when im cooking not to mention finding a place where it can stand up(ipad gang with case augh)
Not an apple user, nor will be in near future because hard to move ecosystem. But these videos so pleasing to watch.
I wish they used different names like 'MagGrip' for the whole lot, 'MagAttach' for just grips, 'MagCharge' for 5w and 'MagBoost' or 'MagBoostCharge' for fast charge. Hell even 'MagCharge5' and 'MagCharge15'
Even MagCharge 1.0 for 5w and increasing it up one for every 5w. ie 15W MagCharge 3.0 or 1.3
The new battery pack is exactly the way Moto Mods worked, without the data transfer. It's just a bit better though, since there's no pogo pins to align. I'm interested to see where MagSafe (or MagSafe Attach or whatever) goes. Will it come to the iPad? I've heard rumor that MagSafe could come back to the Mac in some way. I don't know, but I do know that magnets are fun and I like them.
Add Smart Connector functionality to Magsafe. Would open up even more possible accessories.
Magsafe attach is so good. I added a ASR HaloLock ring to my Pixel 6 case and 3D printed custom mounts for my car. Best thing ever
Imma say something cursed but I love magsafe on my z fold 4, took me months but I found a mag safe sticker that's low profile clean can stick to silicone and matte plastics plus has super strong magnets so it holds freakishly well. It's so strong that I accidentally bought a non mag safe generic magnetic charger but just using about 30% of the ring works and holds it.
Link please
Probably will be the future for charging just like wireless headphones instead of mini jack cable
12:12 lol that guy is sniffing the magsafe charger through a mask.🌚
These videos and their style are an absolute premium. Never change. Keep skipping in the office too, that was fun.
Love the sound design on this channel!
I use an android phone and I have never used an electric induction type of charging. Cost-wise their always more expensive and in some cases slower than wall chargers. But if there was a huge ecosystem for all the phones that would make any kind of phone usable with any MagSafe or other chargers I might want to enter this ecosustem.
I found something similar to the belkin boost charger on Amazon that charges it at the same speed but for significantly less and it is black
13:42 That's exactly what I have in my shower, a magnet stick to the wall and an iPad with a magnet at its back, turned my iPad into an instant TV in the shower.
I love the local camera guys nodding their heads. ;-D
Uses for the Magsafe Wallmount:
Once home-office is over I'd love to stick my work-phone on the wall and just use home-control as a light-switch on it.
The thing to keep in mind is that mAh is *not* a measure of energy storage. Powerbanks, smartphones and such market that number because it looks bigger on paper than an average Whr number for these types of products. But Whr is the actual spec we should be looking at if we want to understnad the energy capacity. 11.13Whr equates to being about as large as an iPhone 12 Pro battery.
Another note to keep in mind is, unlike 'powerbanks', the MagSafe battery pack's first priority isn't really to charge up your phone, it's to act like an extension to your phone's internal battery. So, this will be a great option for the 12 mini users especially, who want to extend their battery lives. Unlike other powerbanks, this battery pack from Apple won't trigger/turn on iCloud backup or all sorts of other things that get activated when you charge your iPhone in a 'traditional' plug in way either, and therefore make the internal battery heat up less.
So, I don't really get the hate around this product, except say for the price of it.
2:49 WAIT WHAT! So you're telling me now that the iPhone supports reverse wireless charging???
Thing is that there are Magsafe (attach) cases for Android phones. You can find some for the Google Pixel 6.
MagSafe is amazing, especially through third party accessories. I have a $15 Fully MagSafe Compatible car mount and its feels more scure then any other car mount I've used before and it's integeated right into iPhone and its cases.
11:29 All iPhone X/XS models fit perfectly fine in the case of some iPhone 11 model (X and XS fit in 11 Pro case, XR fits in 11 case, and XS Max fits in 11 Pro Max case) so there would be no point of making cases for the XS line and the only other iPhones with wireless charging are the 8/8+ so they would just need to make ones for those two phones.
@KNAX_NO4H You can still put the XS in the 11 case
@@iUseAndroid2024 Yes, but it's an eyesore if you look at anything but the screen.
Man, do I love the polishedness of the videos on this channel. Keep it up!
I have a magsafe anker battery pack for my iphone 12 pro max and it works really well. It has a built-in stand too. Since it was half the cost of the $99 dollar apple magsafe battery pack I can deal with the slower charging
6 months later, I’m now able to find ‘MagSafe attach’ cases for my new S22, so I can continue to use my MagSafe charger and car mount. Things is getting better~
I wish the reverse charging on the iPhone could function as a Qi wireless charger.
That would be cool, but idk if Samsung patented it.
I got a magnet replacement kit for iPhone and put the magnets on the inside of the pixel 4 case. Works like a charm. I don't use the official apple MagSafe charge just 3rd party ones. I cant get 12W charging all the time. I just need to find a good car mount. If you want a pic hit me up.
I love the style of these videos and how different they are from all other LTT content. Jon and the team really make it their own and it shows!
I think magsafe is the best new feature of the iphone in awhile, it makes everything charging or mounting related infinitely more convenient
👆👆Wow Congratulations🎊🎊
You have been selected among my New Year ongoing giveaway 🎁 winners INBOX ME ……
Wall mount beside your bed or desk is great
Mounting that wall mount to something to make a primitive rolling cam setup for B-roll.
What great timing for this video I was actually looking around at I can actually buy to finally use the feature
I own a Essential phone PH-1 and when i used that thing, i don't anymore as it's broken, still turns on though, u get the point, well i had this magnetic charger with pins that were 3D printed, since the essential phone had this magentic accsesory thing with wireless usb 3 for the 360 camera, i used that connector also for charging, which was ofc magnetic, and I'd say, i loved it
For the MagSafe wall mount at the end: maybe someone is making a cooking video in their kitchen or on a video call with someone showcasing someone
Other than the music, these videos really give me Vsauce vibes but the tech version. Jonathan definitely helps drive that home.
I bought the magsafe battery pack and have been using it for 1 month not. Totally love it.
i got the magsafe puck at launch with my 12 pro max and it’s like, whatever to be honest, it’s nice to plug and unplug with one hand and one swift motion, and the charging rate is pretty good but the pro max is also a battery behemoth so i almost never need to get a quick charge either way. i am, tho, a huge fan of the magsafe leather wallet, it’s not the best fit on the phone naked and i love to have the phone naked, but it’s great with the matching leather case and has truly replaced all my other wallets, especially if you never use cash or live in a crappy country without apple pay and/or digital id cards, etc.
i could live without plugging in a lightning cable ever again, but the big problem is not the iphone, but those handful of accessories that still, for whatever reason, don’t have wireless charging or usb-c, like airpods max still needing a cable, or apple watch needing the proprietary cable puck thingy as well, like, there’s no easy one solution for everything that is not a behemoth taking space on your desk.
This channel is getting better and better. Fantastic host. I’m so glad LTT started making Mac specific content not just for the deep dives, but so the news comes without all the Apple hate eye rolling all the other hosts can’t help but express.
damn even the end screen is clean and well thought out 😳
I love that this has great production quality that is totally its own thing from LTT. Jonathan does a great job. I seriously look forward to releases from this channel.
Also music at the beginning is fire
You can glue the wall mount to your hand (:)
I have the Belkin “tree” charging thing and I must say it is like one of my favorite possessions
I am still not able to finalize between wired chargers and third-party wireless chargers because wireless chargers heat up the apple devices and may cause the damage to the components. Second issue is that I need to manage couple of wires and need to by another charger (with two type C port or two different chargers). Third issue is that wireless chargers are always plugged in. So, even if I don’t want to charge my devices every time I place on these chargers, I don’t have any other choice other than to unplug the cable out of the chargers and place the devices afterwards. I really like if there would be a front facing switch or tap feature which turn on/off the individual charger like one for iPhone and another for Apple Watch just like color changing lights by just tapping on the same button.
the size of the iphone 11 pro camera just blew my mind, because now the cameras are ENOURMOUS.
That Opera section 🤣🤣
I got over 3 quarters of the way through this before realising it was an LMG channel, it's got it's own style.
That last mount, place it in the kitchen for recipes, videos, podcasts, remote, etc. Keeps it out of harms way while being able to use it during cooking. (Just make sure you either disinfect the phone or wash your hands after using it)
Wall mount for iPhone for house setup to control things like nest, sonos, etc. Mounted inside door. And as a backup phone for emergencies. Just winging that! My first thought was Toliet as well!
My thinking for the magsafe wall thing would be for people who travel in there car a lot. I'd attach it to the ceiling to watch movies while camping
i think the moment thing at the end is kind of intended as the all terrain so that basically if you can put a screw in it it can be a iphone holder
I'm not a apple guy but these videos are top quality. I love watching them.
Wow, the production level is on another, uhh... level.
