For the standalone magsafe adapters it can be a small annoyance but you can also get charging stands or stations that would be heavier and not have the same issue. Also I would much rather deal with the magnets when disconnecting the phone than not have them and deal with getting the alignment right. I have so often thought my phone was wirelessly charging only to wake up to a dead phone.
On the nightstand, at the work desk, at the home office, near the coffee table, in the kitchen… all pretty reasonable and I’m sure you can think of more. Idk what the solution is but you have to admit the current set up is dumb. Yes it’s a trivial inconvenience but that’s what apple is known for solving…
I find it hard to believe there is a real need for a wireless charger in the kitchen. The whole point of increasing the efficiency of wireless charging is to reduce the time and number of times wireless charging is used.
You’ve never used your phone as a cookbook? Sure there’s not a “real need” for it but if my phone’s gonna sit on the counter for an hour while I make some bouillabaisse may as well charge it.
Sure. I check a step then do it. Then wake my phone up and do the next step. It’s not like I have the screen on the whole time. And if I did, it’s one hour. That’s not my whole battery.
But if you are a true apple user, you’d be watching the recipe on your ipad not your iPhone.
I mean, I would just stick down the charger?
Obviously, but what, you’re just using double sided tape everywhere you have a charger? That’s not very apple.

Overnight charger and one at work? Seems like a reasonable amount of tape?

this is the company that invented a mouse you have to flip over to recharge…
