Your next wireless charger might be more like MagSafe

  1. The only issue I have with this is the phone will pick up shards of metal. I used to use a magnetic usb adapter and leave it in my phone. I'd find shards all the time.

    Great for people who work in an office all day.

  2. Wireless charging cooks a battery over time battery swells up busting the seams of your cellular device making it unsafe to use & you would think just changing out the battery particularly would fix problem nope phone is done

  3. Its all irrelevant and soon to be obsolete. South Korea has figured out how to wirelessly charge up to 100ft away! Its called DLC or "distributed laser charging" and it uses infrared lasers to transfer electrical power.
    "DLC has the potential to solve problems and enable wireless power transfer. It allows for power to be provided over hundreds of meters in environments where electric transmission by copper wire is not optimal"

  4. The problem is…MagSafe magnets deactivate pacemakers and implantable defibrillators. 😳 Grandpa put his iPhone in his shirt pocket one day, and then eats a big ol' steak and salty bowl of soup for dinner with the family. On the drive home, they almost get in a crash. The scare of the incident causes his heart to fall into an abnormal rhythm that is incompatible with life, but his pacemaker or defibrillator does nothing because it's been turned off. Grandpa dies and everyone is so sad to learn that his new phone was what caused his demise. :'(

  5. Wireless charging is still a gimmick, it's not efficient enough and it kills the battery faster due to the generated heat of wireless charging. It adds nothing other than convince, is that worth the extra price you pay for it and number of other downsides?
