- Even though most newer phones have wireless charging, one research report from IHS showed that only 29% of people use it. Why hasn’t it taken off?
Following is a transcript of the video:
Wireless charging sounds great, right? Just plop your phone on a stand, a pad, or even furniture with built-in wireless charging, and voila, it starts charging. No cables, no fuss.
Even though most newer phones have wireless charging, one research report showed that only 29% of people use it. Why hasn't it taken off?
Well, first of all, you need a phone or a phone case that's capable of wireless charging, and not everyone has one. Qi is the standard for almost all wireless chargers. Phones that support Qi are mainly newer phones from Apple, Samsung, Google, and LG.
Secondly, wireless chargers are slower than wired chargers. The thing about wireless charging is it uses something called electromagnetic induction, basically transferring energy from one place, like your charging mat, for example, to another, your phone.
Wireless charging uses two physical coils. The induction coil in the charger and the receiver coil in the phone. If you don't align the two coils on top of each other, your device won't charge correctly. This method of charging is slower than plugging your phone straight into an outlet, which lets the power flow from the outlet through the wired charger to your phone.
Most wired chargers have a rating of at least 12 watts, while most wireless chargers only reach about 7.5 or 10 watts. Basically, the smaller the number, the longer it'll take to charge your phone. And if you have a case for your phone, it'll charge even slower, or might not even work at all.
Some wireless chargers do have a fast-charge mode, but it'll only work with phones from the same manufacturer. So a Google Qi charger might fast-charge a Pixel but not a Galaxy. Yes, if you're not looking for a fast charger, or if you're only charging your phone at night while you sleep, then a wireless charger could work for you.
But for the most part, you can't use your phone while it charges wirelessly. If you take your phone off the wireless charger to do anything, it'll stop charging. You can't text comfortably without lifting your phone off the charger, you can't sit on the couch and scroll through Instagram, and you can't even take a phone call properly. But with a cord, you can do all those tasks while staying plugged in.
Also, these wireless chargers are technically not wireless. They still have to be plugged into an outlet. The only wireless part about it is eliminating the wire between your phone and the charger.The price of these chargers is another issue. The more affordable chargers range from $15 to $30, while the fancier ones cost anywhere from $60 to $100. But it doesn't look like wireless charging is disappearing anytime soon. One report is expecting that by 2023, there will be a cumulative shipment of 2.7 billion wireless chargers and 6 billion devices with wireless charging capabilities.
But for wireless charging to become the norm, companies will need to figure out ways to make it more practical and frictionless. Companies like Pi, Energous, and Ossia are getting there with their truly wireless charging products. They claim that their products can charge multiple devices wirelessly when you bring them within a short range, kind of like how WiFi works.
Basically, if you hold or place your wireless charging phone, tablet, and headphones around the wireless charger, it'll begin to charge your devices, which sounds pretty cool and is a great step forward. But the thing is, none of these companies have released their product yet. It's just all talk. Just like Apple with their AirPower. So, I'll believe it when I'm scrolling through Instagram on my couch while truly charging my phone wirelessly.

Tech Insider you guys said wireless charging is not wireless! But some cars come with built in wireless charging! So your claim was incorrect

I think the biggest reason wireless charging is not so popular is that almost no phone ships with a wireless charger and most people just use what comes in the box.
Ymi_Yugy EXACTLY
Yes you're right , for now just mi mix 3 ships with wireless charger😐
Yup
Not for me. I wouldnt use it if it was free. It's slow, can't use it while charging. Maybe overnight I would used it..
No it's because it's painfully slow
Samsung's fast wireless charger is still faster than Apple's out of the box charger
So true
Ikr😂
Lmaoooooo for reals
Tim Cook said Apple can't figure out how to fit a fast charger in the box of 1500$ phone.
Genius or stupid excuse?
@@rrsharizam iretards everywhere
Just wait until Apple removes the Lightning port altogether and wireless charging is your only option.
Just wait till that,then they gotta say byebye to the good ole wired charging
Man,gonna miss that when it's gone for good
Nah, they need at least one port in order to sell dongles.
Funnily enough the leaks of the high end iPhone is port less😂
It’s coming man. They took out the audio jack. Now next is the charger port

Why call it WIRELESS charger then?
Call it a charge pad.
It's like saying "this box is waterproof as long as u don't put it in water". Duh.
FB Kensar HD that is so true
CinemaSins would like to copy strike you for that title
You need to be pinned
why ?
I liked this comment
What do you think will happen if you leave your phone out in the sun to charge?
Exactly. That's why I don't mind, in fact love it that Oneplus 6/6T doesn't have wireless charging.
Glad to see a youtuber understands this and explains this properly.
In future our phones will recharge themselves
sorry

@@MiguelAngel-yr5zb its a simple fact that charging a battery slowly will give it more useable life compared to one that's fast charged
Dang Now 2023 I'm using a 50 Watts wireless charger. Fully charged my Xiaomi 12 Pro within 35 minutes. Every year tech advancement is going crazy.
Its another option just in case your charging port gets damaged
Exactly
I can relate, I have the problem now :'(
IF your phone has wireless charging, of course. If not, you're screwed.
so buying a wireless charger is cheaper than repairing the charging port?
Yep. I broke my phones charging port when I dropped it while plugged in and since I'm poor people I had to keep the phone and use the charger I lifted off my brother. It works great when that's your only option but, yeah, its annoying.
Wanna hear a joke?

Lol
Well it HAS entered production.
@@kruzerblade4740 Yeah, but why Apple remove it from its website? They should at least put it coming soon
K.
That s truly a joke.
This is a great advertisement for charging cables...
Or the real on "Wireless Chargers"
Okay... I don't see the problem.......
;)
Mr.Mejia
The problem is the video is really uninformed.
You can get a wireless charger for $3 with free shipping at the lowest price.
They then implied the wattage alone is the reason for why you can't charge your phone quickly over wireless.
The next point of never wanting to put down your phone is fallacious.
You could being a tablet and use that while the other device charges or do any other activity.
Her complaint is access vs downtime but ignores the main reason why people like wireless charging is protecting a phones charge cable.
She's correct regarding it not truly being wireless because a source was involved.
You could argue the same for wifi.
You need to plug the router into the wall so ires not truly wireless internet.
Wait, that is illegal
1:21 showing apple's puny 5w charger and saying that atleast 12w. what rubbish. samsung supports 15w fast wireless charging
Facts! Someone gets it!
I was abt to comment the same
Can you differentiate volt and watt?
Edgegm 2017 they're different units of measurement. A volt measures how much "push" the electricity has behind it, and a watt measures the raw power of an electrical current
@@human_bingPower (Watts) = Potential Difference (Volts) X Current (Ampheres)
Why is everyone acting like they can't have both a cable and wireless charger and use it depending on the situation
Exactly what I do
Because they cant? Have you seen the video dude? You need to have a supported device + a wireless charger to be able to charge wirelessly, which is not cheap and most people don't have it, it wouldnt really be worth it if you somehow manage to get these things just to use it for one or two times too
Being a note 9 user, I don't remember the last time I used a cable to charge my phone. I mean I use the headphone jack more than the usb c AND I barely use the jack too (I still like the jack though).
Wireless is great unless you want to do anything on your phone and that's the big downside and the reason why I stopped using mine actively
You must not use your phone often while its charging
Also a Note9 owner, same applies lol
Yup same over here with the N9 I also have a usb C port plug bc of when it becomes too humid it so.sometimes trips the moisture se sensor and takes quite a while to go away, as for charging when I'm at my pc i just drop my phone on the charger and usually before I go to bed I have a 100%battery I try not to charge overnight and If I ever forget to charge beforehand a quick 30 min cable fast charge in the morning is usually enough to het me trough the day
@Austin Martín Hernández So it only eliminates the "plugging in the wire" process which takes 5 seconds?
What is this, an ad for cables?
@Austin Martín Hernández have you read the title. Its called "everything wrong with wireless charging" not "everything wrong with cable charging "
@Austin Martín Hernández why would they promote wires. Its not a brand and 99% of phone users already charge using wires so they don't even need to "promote" it
@@sethgyellins yeah
Until wireless charging is just as cheap quick to charge and actually wireless and it can charge your device anywhere in the room you are in wired is still going to be better
One day it’s going to overtake but that’s in the future not now
@@sethgyellins well stated
You know what you can do while your phone charges? Be Productive.
You defenetly arent productive
Is that an app?
i dont get it
Yee haw Guy I love your nose
Yee haw Guy Sigh. With cables you can be productive while charging but with wireless not so much
"How to get rid of wired charger?" "Use a wired wireless charger."
The reason of failure is pretty self-explanatory.
ilovehonglong but the thing is wireless chargers are universal, so I don’t need to suffer not having enough battery because on how everyone in the room has a usb charging cable and not a lightning, I could just bring the wireless pad with me and ask any charger I want and not just the lighting port so I can just plug the cable in my wireless charging pad and voila! I can charge now!
There are plenty of cordless wireless chargers out there. Takes two seconds to find some on google.
The idea i think is to keep your charging port from getting damaged
@@joymiller9668 I've never really had that issue. Even a 4 year old S7 could fare wothout the charging port being spoilt.

😂
OOF
WHY DO 29% OF PEOPLE DON'T USE WIRELESS CHARGING? BECAUSE IT IS ONLY AVAILABLE TO NEWER PHONES. SHOCKING.
Juan Molero Its because it's not really wireless and you can't use your phone while it's "wireless charging" compared to a wired charger
@@DrBomb15 Because its shiiiiit

TheJosiahTurner you cared enough to reply.
exactly
0:38 "... are mainly new phones from apple, samsung,..."
*I'D INTODUCE TO YOU MY $100 GALAXY NOTE5*
i think the main niceness is the universality and convinience. for small devices or when you're not in a hurry it's great. also if it was cheaper every table in a cafe could have it so when you go there or to a resturant you just drop your phone on the table and it gains 50% while eating.
this is also tidier then cables
For me its important cuz i always break my charging ports lol
I think most people watching this video has been using phones since late 2000s. Not many can claim that. Bravo.

Does your phone have Micro USB?
How?? I’be never had that happen, ever.
righttt. i use my phones so much i used the charges so many time a day that it ruined them they still charge (most of them ) it just was ajusted with pliers and needed to be in perfect spot to charge and one got stuck in my phone
Why can't they just make a Solar Power phone that also recharges from the sun
They did, but corporations are against solar
@@KGBSpyGeorgeCostanza it would hardly ever charge as it always is either in the dark, inside, or in your pocket

@@itzrob3450 that too, plus the cost, solar isn't cheap
"wireless charging is available on newer phones"
Samsung has it since 2015! Do some research.
amihay sarfaty Well that’s still relatively new
It's made in the same decade.
Have they supported Qi Wireless?
If no, they’re correct, since they explicitly said “Qi”.
@@Sherolox Yes. The S6 and Note5 introduced Qi Wireless built in. That was in 2015. If you want to get technical, Starting with the Galaxy S3 and Note2, wireless charging was an available option. In 2012. That's 8 years.
lewds
Ok, at least I know that now.
One HUGE advantage - no need to keep buying more lighting cables. As these are consumables for most people (and they break after three months or so), using wireless charging saves a lot of money in the long term. Also, it’s easier to carry one charger instead of many different cables. It’s true, most devices don’t support wireless charging but for example the AirPods, Apple Watch and iPhone do.
or you can buy a good charger cable that's more resistant and take good care of it, what are people doing with their cables that last them so little?
I never had a cable last less than a year. And that happened only once. All my other cables last many many years and still work fine. And I don’t understand how a big circle with a cord attached to it is easier to travel with than a lightning or usb-c cable.
@@juanpabloelizarrarazoliva2804 fr, im treating my charger like its hitler yet it has no visible damage after 2-3 years of use.
Anker’s powerline cables seem to hold far better than Apple’s. Particularly the ii and better
Saves a lot of money?? What??How??
Wireless chargers are actually more limiting that a wired one.
Slow, and can’t use it while docked. Seem like a regress than progress
Zero issues with my Samsubg wireless charger with my S9+...with a longer cord to the wireless charger I can easily use it when it's charging on a table and make phone calls with the speaker phone turned on.
My ONLY concern...is if, the wireless method of charging in any way hurts the internal battery.
“If you take the phone off the wireless charging dock it will stop charging”
*_mmm.. yes, the floor will break if it is broken_*
This is like explaining why wi-fi didn't work that well in the 2000s. It existed and was fun to surf facebook on your brand new Sidekick but was slow and inefficient as all hell before eventually improving.
I actually like the 5w charger Apple has always given because it’s perfect for charging the phone overnight without killing the battery health like a fast charger would. But I still do fast charge during the day sometimes
You're the reason why society is failing, because you accept bad things, would you also accept if car manufacturers started making only cars that can go up to 50km/h because "it won't kill the engine overtime" ? Clown.
OnePlus has been doing 30W wired charging for years without affecting battery health since the voltage steps are handled by the charger, no conversion loss inside the phone. So eh, sure, it works, but it's really not that much of a problem to fast charge safely. Wireless, on the other hand, is obviously kinda bad because of the heat
"Wireless" charger where you still need an outlet and cable, and you can't move your phone while sitting on those pads.
i think there is certain places where they work better. like in a car or beside your bed. any other place where you need to use your phone, a cable works better. but anyway thats only if your battery is low. having to pick your phone up and down from a wireless charger isnt really an issue if you have plenty of charge already

"Most wired chargers have at least 12 watts"
(Shows Samsung's 15 watt fast charger and Apple's 5 watt charger.) 😆
I mainly use a wireless charger and capacity has only gone down 7% in year 1. I also can use it on the charger because about 1/2 my time is using it for conference calls or playing audio/video… I just key up something and place it back on the charger if it’s below 90%. Every couple days I might have it drop below 60%, especially if I’m not working that day but it prevents a lot of charge cycles.
I’d like to get at least 3 or 4 years out of the phone so wireless charging is definitely a good option… very convenient
Wireless chargers are slow
Huawei : hold my green tea
The fact that even wireless chargers are not even fully wireless and the pad is connected to the plug point through a wire ,it's just creating another problem and then trying to create a solution for it to make money , the wire charging works perfectly
what will happen if i put my phone on the wireless charger and still plug it in with the charging cable.???
edit:i tried it and it didn’t explode but i am not sure if it helped

1. If you can't text comfortably just text like your using a keyboard or use siri.
2. Instead of looking at Instagram be productive or sit on a chair instead of a couch.
3. You can call "properly" using the speaker phone.
After doing some research I realised that wireless charging for the most part, is a gimmick. Its cool that's its a deciding factor for some ppl but I would just be cool with improved battery technology and overall longer life cycles.
I use my wireless charger all of the time, but honestly it’s only because I like having it docked while using video chat with someone. It’s otherwise not really any better than standard charging.

great video and explanation. that deserves a like and a sub. Cheers from Canada
There's also car mounts with wireless charging which I use on a regular. Very useful when using navigation or using bluetooth.
I use a lightning cable in my car while using navigation with my phone on a vent mount. Works perfectly fine. The cable doesn’t interfere with anything while driving, so still don’t see the point of a (probably very expensive) magnetic holder which still needs to be plugged somewhere in the car, no?
I wireless charge regularly during the day.
Not usually for long between pickups but it keeps the battery at a good level all day.
One major benefit of wireless charging is you don't ware out your physical charge port. It could save a costly repair.
I have a wireless charger by my desk. Habit makes me always put it there while I sit here and I dont have to worry about plugging in/out a cable every time I charge it(as long is I sit by my desk for about 2 hours or more per day, which I usually do).
Some newer cars have built in wireless chargers, and that is imo one of the most convenient uses for it.
I love charging wirelessly at work, I could just remove the phone anytime I want, it also eliminates the problem of having your phone charger dock on galaxy phones rent the best so it's just a precaution on taking.
But if you take the phone off it’s not charging anymore 😂
The slow wireless charging is only applicable to iPhones
No, it's physics, Nothing to do with companies.

@@LunarStrike i think he meant that the wireless charging of samsung is as fast as an ordinary type c cable on any other phone. My note 5 in fast wireless charging is as fast as my sony xperia with cable but if the note 5 is plugged in it takes half the time.

@@LunarStrike 15wat charger...
Got fooled, I thought this was going to provide new information and not the absolute basics of wireless charging... Bravo
Note 10 + owner here. Went to best buy one day to see if they had a longer charger cable for sale. Saw 2 different wireless charging pads. Both were from Qi certified and Samsung manufactured. The cheaper one I bought was $39 since it had a sale discount of 11 so it would've been 50.. while the other was bigger but more expensive but offered idk anything better but being bigger?? Both had fast charging options so I went with the cheaper one. What I didn't know was that the wireless charging pad offers not only a lil longer cable than the one that comes with the phone but a wall charger adapter (adaptive fast charger) and a cable that's USB to USB-C that u can plug into a computer for example. The one that comes with the phone is basically one charging cable since u can't disconnect the cable from the adapter so all in all, your basically getting 3 values for one price with the wireless charging.
Cool Vid Bruh
Going to sleep now....

Hey when I wash my water resistent phone, it usually says that moisture detected in the USB port. Then I put my device in a wireless charger.
wtf do u dip your phone into the sink lol
amelia77 - I’ve pictured a washing machine 😂
I got a wireless charger because the cords keep breaking or stop working AND my iPhone 7 eventually started to stop working on the plug in part. So instead of paying to get my charging port repaired and etc if this happens again, I just went ahead and got the wireless charger
It is perhaps worth it for waterproof phones, which saves the hassle of flap covers and is backup charging method once the phone is exposed to a lot of water- charging it that way wired can cause a short circuit.
Just got a wireless charger for my sgs8 becuase ive beeb through like 5 wires they keep getting fucked. Its pretty great though wish i had bought one sooner. It charges pretty fast even through the case i spent 15 dollars on amazon. Idk wht this video is talkin bout.

wOW i needed to see this before wasting my money.
Thanks!
some battery banks can also wirelessly charge your things witch is very tempting to people that dont like dragging cables around
I've never understood the hype behind wireless charging. I mean, what's the point of making something wireless? Removing the inconveniences of an easily tanglable wire and allowing for a more free and fluid range of movement. But if your phone has to stay in the same place the whole time then what's the point? If anything, a wireless charger hinders you even more cause you basically can't use your phone at all if you're planning to do anything that requires movement.
No hype, practically. At least for me. I pick up my phone frequently and because of my desk set up at work, I can't use it tethered to a cable so I have to unplug to use and plug after use.
With a wireless charger, my phone starts charging soon as I put it down. With a wire, I have to remember to plug it back in. I often forget.
It's not for everyone, other people's work days are more suited for a wire. Mine is not.
Also the pad has a wire essentially it’s removing a wire and adding a new one
@@lilchad-ig1oj A wire which, fortunately for me, I don't have to plug and unplug into my phone's port a dozen times a day.

what if your charging port is damaged ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Aesthetics is. Huge reason for wireless charging. Maybe you don’t have high standards but when there is no cables but routes underneath desks and the like. You’ll wish you had a wireless charger.
So you ride a horse and don’t use a car right??
MidgetSpinner69 well the thing is that I could use any cable to plug in to my wireless charging pad to work, so no need to have struggles on not finding the right charging cable like the lightning port to charge my phone
imagine just putting your phone down for a few hours to charge and reading a book instead. mind blown
Hi,
just got an Tronic wireless charger and a Type C wireless Charging Receiver but still not working 😕 is there any other option I can try?
wireless charging is nothing more than than a gimmick if you think about it. yes it's convenient in certain applications, but wired will always be a preferable way to charge your device, especially if you can charge it faster and more reliably.
Not true I mostly use wireless charging - at home at my bed, at my desk, in my car etc and my phone stays at full charge all day , its great and takes no effort - you have to put your phone down on something so it might as well charge your phone
It's not a gimmick. Wired charging is for poverty stricken assholes. People who plug in with wires look desperate. To the point that they will rather sit on the floor at the airport than a comfy chair because they need power.
@@JetHawk I think they are more stupid than poor since a good battery bank only costs 20 dollars

@@ceciljohnson2157 but all i have to do is plug my phone in for an hour and it will be at 100 percent, which would defeat the purpose of having a wireless charger because it's soooooo slow.
*I was wondering why cinemaSins would bother doing a video on wireless charging* 😂
My phone has an issue to where it wont charge on a cord anymore and wireless charging was my only option if i didnt want a new phone
overall i wouldnt say it's painfully slow, or very fast, just somewhere in the middle
i think wireless chargers are good to have in the event that your port is damaged and buying or fixing your phone isnt an option for whatever reason(s)
phone chargers are pretty pricey to, and many dont last long
Ok, now I understand this a little better. I just bought a wireless charger and there are NO instructions, so I came online and found out.....
BRUH, almost all of these points don't apply to samsung phones or other wireless chargers.
she says u cant use it while its charging, but u can if you have one which is a stand.
and the reason some people get this is because if you have a job that makes your phone wet you can charge it without waiting for the port to dry out.
also people have it if they are clumsy with their phone and always break the port in their phone.
Aditya More or if your parents just are not tech savvy or at least know or care about plugging in. That makes it much more convenient.
This just an unpractical excuse to use wireless charger
U cant charge ur phone when its wet ? Ow.. i always doing it wrong.. ?!
Credit Card if the phone costs a lot of money, I expect it to make things a but more convenient and feature packed to match its high price tag. The use I stated is very useful. I don't expect wireless charging on a budget or mid range phone but expect modern day flagships to have them.
Still having a stand isn't comfortable most of the time
Nobody's denying wireless charging is slower than using a cord... just put a wireless charging pad on your desk at work or on the table next to your bed and you just lay it there when you're not using the phone and then your phone is always charged... it's simple.
jonah travisano this will degrade the battery
@@Moose185 not sure what you mean yeah using a battery will degrade it but charging it normally will also degrade it so I'm not sure I understand your point.
jonah travisano using a wireless charger over a wired one will degrade your battery health percentage more. Plain and simple. I know people who have bought a phone at the same time as me and used a wireless charger and there battery % has gone down more.
@@Moose185 ahhh... There's this guy Zollotech and he has all these reviews on iiPhones and his iphones are always at 100% capacity and he uses a wireless charger all the time so you're free to think that but I'm not sure that's right .. all the best
jonah travisano how long has he had his phone for? What iPhone is it? All these are factors.
I don't see why these induction coils are so expensive. I made one as a college project years ago, cost me 15 bucks. Most expensive part was the pcb and surprisingly the heatshrink tubes (they only sold them in 200 piece packs).
Wireless is a cool futuristic idea but more inconvenient than just plugging the thing
“Wireless” chargers have literally zero benefit over a wired charger
I use my wireless charger as a night stand. I plop my Note 9 onto it at night and its on my desk. It serves as a clock for me, I may wake up in the middle of the night to search for the time, and just look at my desk and since my phone has an Always On Display the clock is shown all night. So... uh, its a clock for me. Again I have a cable box but the new ones from Spectrum no longer show the time on it. So the phone on the wireless charger will do.
@max salz no, it's not faster. Not even close.
You don’t have to worry about damaging your cord or it becoming unplugged accidentally in the middle of the night.
max salz so 30 watts < 7.5 or 10 watts where's the logice in that???
@max salz ah, makes sense.
2:25 is my WiFi for my laptop also not wireless? The router and modem have wires.
Nothing can be entirely wireless.
Especially on the inside.
Just take a look at us human, all wired up inside, same with technology.
Yes. Unless you use your laptop without having a physical contact with your router.
The difference is that it has alot more range
30W warp charge on my 7 Pro is awesome. I do miss Qi from my iPhone XS but I love my 7 Pro so much more.
Wireless charging is great. My cables always start tearing after a while. Wireless charger forced me to use it less and let it charge. Love it.
Its not wireless, even the charger is connected to a cord. “True” wireless charging would be you walk into a room and and your phone starts charging automatically.
I noticed right away when I got a wireless charger.. damn I cant really use it while I'm charging now? It's cool tech but not practical in the end 🤷♂️
Pick it up and use it then put it back down lol
@@josholiver8833 I never put it down mwahaha
As it's a rather new technology, it feels more like a gimmick to me rather than the 'next big step in mobile technology'...
There are wireless chargers out there where it fits at the back of your phone perfectly and you can easily pick it up together with your phone and use your phone as usual. Look up iWalk Portable Charger.
I bought a couple cheap 10w ones and they work great, seems to charge fast and I never have to look for a cable end... I just put it on for 20 minutes and I am back in business.
shocked that it wasn't mentioned that inductive chargers are around half as efficient.
Why hasn't it taken off?
Cuz the other 71% like me are broke af 😂
you can buy them for like $10 at walmart.
Good talking point for sure, beyond that. This video was kinda corny...
Thinking to myself how this video aged well as I sit here charging my 5000mah phone in 20 minutes on a AIRVOOC wireless rapid charger with a cell phone case. LOL
What? how much did it cost?
@@Rowid04like $70 usd
And we all still wonder why Tesla's archives and notebooks vanished after his passing. His tower of power worked until his financial backers found out that he wanted to supply electricity at a distance for free. Thanks Morgan & Westinghouse.
00:43 No, the 12W Galaxy wireless charger isn't slower than that 5W iPhone charger.
"Untangled" nice one
I think the author missed a key point, which is less wear and tear on the USB port. Especially the USB-C ports used in most devices today; those things hold a death grip on the cable and can be very tough to remove. Several friends of mine struggled so much that over time it cracked the solder between the board and USB-C port, rendering the phone useless. Wireless charging is definitely a huge step in the right direction.
What about for micro usb ports??
I laught so hard when you mention airpod joke. LOL
Vi Gd *laughed *mentioned :)
2:04 Thank you
I been waiting for someone to say this.
It’s basically the same as plugging ur phone into a charger and setting it down and it charges faster, what is even the point of wireless charging
It is in my case, although admittedly I'm more of an exception to the rule - my male connector in my S8's charging port is knackered & as my S8 is now out of warranty the cost of repair, postal costs & inconvenience of being without my baby ... sorry phone I mean ... far outweighs the cost of a cheap wireless charger!
I got a free Samsung dual wireless charger when I bought my galaxy watch, the fast charge point isn’t as fast as a cable, but it easily charges my phone to 100% in at most an hour, depending obviously on how low the battery is when I drop the phone, which is still pretty damn good. The second charging point, mainly designed for the watch is standard, it will charge my watch to full in less than an hour from 0%.
At work I use my phone a lot so I have to plug it in with a wire which then gets me to 100% or at least a good enough level to last me until I go to bed, the only issue I’ve had is with the second charge point, my watch has to be directly on top of it and if I miss it or bump it during the night (which apparently happens sometimes) my watch doesn’t charge and it ends up dying during the day...
I did a while back buy a cheap, cradle style wireless charger which wouldn’t charge my phone through its thin cover vertically, but would charge it if I placed it horizontally, which was really disappointing. My other half on the other hand doesn’t put covers on his phone, so he used the charger and didn’t have any issues, he also doesn’t use his phone that much so the slower charging wasn’t an issue.
Over all I love my wireless charger, it works well. The only thing I think needs to be worked on is either improving the range so the device doesn’t have to be placed directly on the spot, or maybe placing magnets in the devices so when the are dropped the will either self align or be held in place. Magnets will also make it easier to find the sweet spot as you will be able to feel the lock.
I have been wirelessly charging my Note 5 for a year. It is super convenient for night charging, not having to search for a cord in the dark. When ever I'm charging my phone I usually am doing something else anyways so using it is not a problem.
the dislikes came from the wireless charging companies
And me
Samsung s6 THE S6 FROM 2015 HAS WIRELESS CHARGER THAT IS NOT A NEW PHONE
Samsung fast chargers work for everyone (will just use the highest the phone can take it is only Google that limits it)
Nokia Lumia have that in 6 or 5 year back I think
You forgot to mention the lifespan of wireless chargers. Yes they are expensive but it's the last charger you'll ever have to buy, because they don't wear out like the cables do.
Long time Qi charger user here. Only 0:35 is the problem. 0:42 Not a problem because the phone spends most of it's time charging. 1:04 is just false and magnetic clips for alignment exist. 1:59 Not a problem because the phone is always close to full when you pick it up for a call or something. 2:22 Not a problem because the wire to the pad does not need to be reconnected often and is neatly tucked away.
What I would love to see, is a unit that sits in your car, charging your phone, but even better, powers up a dash cam, so I don't have to have a wire running to it. (Not that it is bad, but would just be nice.)
I haven't watched the video but here's my take on wireless changing.
1. It costs extra money to buy a wireless charging pad.
2. If my cable is working why should I opt for wireless charging.
3. Charging speed is slow than cable
4. With current technology, you still need to connect a cable to the "wireless" charging pad in order to power it to charge your phone.
So therefore I find wireless charging technology useless rn unless if they somehow make it actually wireless or the speed is same as cable or they give wireless charging pad inside the box like the latest xiaomi mi mix
I got a fast wireless charger at work and a slow €5 IKEA wireless charger at home and I basically never have to worry charging the phone. I just place it on top of the wireless charger when I'm not using it. I do have a power bank (with wireless charger) in case I'm away from either places for too long.
I have a wireless charger built in on my pc monitor. So everytime I am working I lay my phone on the charger instead besides me and it simply loads. I dont have to look for the cable all the time and it still is loading. It is just easy. And you know what? I still use loading cables when I have to be mobile. Wireless chargers are truly wireless when they are integrated into something like cars, tabled, monitors, etc. And it is the best and convenient thing ever to load your phone passively.
