At least for the next few years, I am pretty firm on needing a jack on my device.
I am currently using an LG v60, and while nice, it’s starting to show its age.
Any suggestions on where to go next?
I was looking at the ROG phone, and while it does seem very nice, I feel like it is a bit much as I don’t game on my device at all.
Are there any good phones I should be looking at?
Thanks!
Am I the only one who dislikes the wireless charging gimmick? Id rather phones dont bother with it to keep the size and cost of the phone down a bit.
I love it because I have a great dock for it. I just set my phone down on it and it charges.
I have usb-c chargers scattered around the house so that I can charge whatever I have (phone, iPad, Switch) wherever I am. Prefer a single standard, whatever it is.
USB-C will do. Better than having wireless chargers laying around instead.
Wireless power sharing makes it worth it to me. It’s not helpful often but being able to charge someones phone in a pinch has saved my ass a few times.
Price isn’t going to go down even if they take out the wireless charging feature. It’s definitely a must for me.
I think the idea of reverse wireless charging is cool as hell, but only if you have wireless buds or a smartwatch to take advantage of it.
The heat, energy loss, and extra time to use wireless charging is not worth it to use full time imo. You also cannot use your device nearly as much on a wireless charger vs a long cable.
But when it’s integrated into bar tops, tables, etc., to charge your phone while at a restaurant or something, that’s extremely convenient.
It feels very situational to me.
Yeah it’s niche use doesn’t really make it a selling point for me, others things I’d rather have before it.
The reverse charging is a cool feature though, but I feel like phone batteries just aren’t big enough for it to be useful outside of a quick partial charge of something like a smartwatch like you mentioned.
Maybe once the tech advances a bit more I can be convinced, but right now a cable does the job well.
I keep my S10 in a waterproof case with port covers, so it’s actually pretty handy to just throw it on the charger.
Less opening and closing the waterproof port covers makes me feel like they stay sealed better as well
