Honestly... If you give me a fast enough wired charging, I really don't care for wireless charging

@@Gabilleta I asked because I have OnePlus12r which has 100W here but 80W in those regions and it seemed a common trend where some countries get slightly faster charging than others for the same models

I bought the Huawei 40 watt wireless charger 3 years ago, and use it every day. I've had many of the LG, Samsung, and HTC phones. After having the phone drop while charging and having it mess up the charging port, i don't want to go back to wired. It is an upright charger with a fan that can adjust it's speed for the heat. Most things you do with wired anything seems to be going away, even Dex, and LG desk top modes support wireless. Nice to have the charging port for an option, but i haven't had to use it for charging in years.

I think it's important to remember that it's not a binary choice. It's a choice between having wired, charging and wireless charging versus only having one.

Well, it can be a choice still in some design components. Like the OP11 and Open made people consider that functionality. If choosing, I'd take actual REAL fast charging over slower cabled charging and wireless.

"Insufferably Sardonic" that's a lotta 10 dollar words for so much shade it's night time

Super fast charging is just too convenient, especially when you have one in the car. I feel like I can leave the house at any percentage with a fast charger in the car. Wireless charging make people leave their pgknes on a charge way too often. Instead of aim to keep the battery at 20-80 percent fot optimal battery health, they keep it at 50-100 most of the time. Charging the phone any chance they get not out of necessity, but just because when the put the phone down its always on a charger.

New fans from China. Great video. I follow many digital product bloggers from US including u. I wanna improve my Eng this way

Samsung also has a Wireless Charging back cover for the Note 4 and S View Cover one as well.

Charging is like cigarette, the more you do it, the less your phone lasts. Fast cable charging like OP and Xiaomi is a win for folks like me who cant afford to change phone every year.

I am definitely not a wireless charging guy but there were some good arguments laid out here and I appreciate the discourse on the matter. I still am 100% in favor of wired because I don't really see much of a benefit of wireless.

The 2 1/2 fold appeal of wireless charging: The half is universality, which is less important now that iPhones support USB-C Public security. Not having to plug in from public spaces in which the other end may or may not be secure is comforting. Peripheral support. Being able to charge and connect to a USB C peripheral at the same time can be helpful.

For the last point, it's why I love lapdocks and laptop hubs.

OMG!!!!! I LOVE RICKY 😂 where I stand on wireless vs wired is I want both for the premium price we're paying so I have the option to use whatever I prefer for the moment. For me it's typically wireless overnight because speed doesn't matter, and when I need those super quick top offs, super fast wired all day

Almost always use wired charging here. But i do enjoy the option of wireless charging, if I buy a new device I prefer it to have both

WIRED IS THE BEST IMO🤔 Samsung - Super Fast Charging 45W USB Type-C Wall Charger with USB-C Cable

Just like audio, wired charging is reliable just like wired audio. I use fast charging everyday with my phone at 100% while leaving the phone charging overnight even with 100% battery fully charged and I use the battery settings to prolong the phone battery life span. I don't even use dark mode and not even power savings mode. I get burn in faster from oled displays than battery degradation. I use my phone while it's plugged in and I leave my phone plugged in at 100% while I'm using my phone even with fast wired charging. I wish every phone has hs power control like my sony xperia 1 iv android phone to bypass the battery and charge the phone from an outlet to prolong the life span of the phones battery. I tried wireless charging on my phone and the back of the phone got really hot and I got a notification that my phone stopped wirelessly charging due to the heat and will continue to wirelessly charge my phone once the heat will lower to preserve the battery. With wireless charging my phone continued to stay really hot on the back and I ended up going back to using fast wired charging since I don't get the notification from fast charging since it does not say that any of form of heat would degrade the battery faster. The heat notification only shows up when using wireless charging. I miss using removable batteries since I would replace the stock samsung galaxy note 4 battery with a 10,000 mah battery case from zero lemon since I'm a heavy power user with the screen display brightness at 100% manual mode 24/7 even indoors with autobrightness turned off since autobrightness is too dim while constantly having static images while using oled displays. I treat all displays in the same way whether a display is oled or not oled. It's why I wish there was an option for mini led displays for phones and more portable display devices to get rid of the oled burn in issues. I always bring a portable power bank since not every phone has a battery case.

Yeah, but by the same logic the reason we want the headphone jack is because we then have the choice to use Bluetooth or the wired headphones. By adding a wireless charging coil, you still are not excluding the use of wired charging. So there's not much downside besides whatever the cost of the parts are, which is very small.

Great video

If it was wireless, should not be cable involved. Less efficiency, more heat, you cannot use phone while using for most tasks. Qi coil is why 5v lost 3rd cam. Tear down shows no more space was left inside.

In an LG V60 is like a necessity... But in mine just makes my phone warmer and charge slower. Not a good thing for a phone that would've really benefit from wireless charging when its USB-C don't like to be used all the time.

I've never had any part issues, but wireless charging is still incredibly important on the dual screen phones because it's such a hassle to charge the phones if you don't have the adapter otherwise. But the other reason I like phones to have wireless charging is that ports are one of the more common things to break on a phone Especially phones that a couple years old and not cost effective to fix.... If it has wireless charging you can keep it out of a landfill for several years. Just using wireless. If the v60 broke for me today I would not pay to get it fixed. I would just charge it wirelessly for the rest of its natural life.

I don't have much hope in being convinced against quick charging. I've learned the OnePlus way ever since the 3t. I just returned to OnePlus (12) after a sidespring to Pixel 7.

Wireless charging is only good if it has magnets for alignment and low wattage for overnight charging. Wired charging is only good when it charges super fast. Their importance is highlighted between different users.

To be fair... wireless is amazing for the convenience of needing it and having a place with a charging tabletop scattered in cities and cafes. Better to have it and not need it but its really there for those niche situations for the general public...

We originally discussed this with the OP11 and Note 23, but even for the OP12 including AirVOOC again, I really don't use it much, if ever. To have an AirVOOC, you still need a vooc cabled charger, which charges significantly faster and cooler over USBC.

Cats do be jerks.

All right now I just finished video number one but I have to say I'm a big fan of wireless charging due to the convenience and the fact that I don't have to fight with cables and being as my disability gives me kind of a dexterity issue, fighting with cables can become more than a little annoying. So the fact that I can just drop my devices on wireless charges? That's a big time saver as well as convenience and I've also went ahead and added magnets or magnetic cases to my favorite devices to assist with lining up. Who said wireless chargers? And I too have magnetic mounts all throughout my home and in my car so I definitely see the advantages of wireless charging that being said, I can also see the advantages for wire charging. My big issue with wire charging is that the super fast wired charging has not made it down to the more affordable devices. We don't have super fast wire charging on $300 devices or $280 devices. You do still have to spend a small premium to get super fast wire charging, whereas you don't for a device that has wireless charging. Just like you don't add the accompanying max safe magnetic capabilities to that more affordable device. Anyways, this was a really interesting video. Definitely going to check out part 2. You guys keep up the great work. Have a good one and I'll text you on the next one.

Something that was left out of the discussion: USB-C ports break and or wear out. If you are only plugging in your phome once per day, probably not an issue. However, for me I am moving around a large building all day long with bad coverage so doing little bits of charging many times per day is part of getting through the day. So is battery assassinating ride share apps. As the phone ages, you will also be more likely to do more frequent charging and if like me you are routinely plugging the phone into a computer to offload large amounts of 4k video. Having the wireless coil is a nice insurance policy to keep the phone working if the USB-C port does wear out. I have had the port wear out and know other people who have had the port wear out. It is a thing for if you keep your phone a while.

@BrianGlaze

Sony's cameras are designed for actual photographers. They expect their consumers to fully take advantage of manual modes and set up the shot and video exactly the way you want it. As a result, they limit the computational photography and let the user manually set how they want the output to be. If you don't take the time to do that, your output will not turn out great.

The important thing to take away from Sony, they're a camera manufacturer who happens to also make a phone. It's helpful to NOT think of phone photography as one linear scale of "badder" and "gooder". You can't rank cameras with a simple number score. Sony offers a specific set of tools for folks who like a more traditional photography experience, and who aren't afraid to edit a RAW file. Under those criteria, it's one of the best phone cameras on the market, has incredible auto focus, and becomes a solid utility for folks who also own nice mirror less cameras.

Use Celsius too, please.
