Some iPhone XS and XS Max units refuse to charge until you wake them up

29 September 2018
The issue applies to wired charging and appears to be widespread; our samples are unaffected.

Okay i understand that they have removed the dongle, so when you want to use headphones you have to pay for it, i understand they dont include fast charger in the box, so if you want faster charger, you have to pay for it, thats how they make profit, but removing charging to make you buy a new iphone every time your battery drains out is a bit overkill in my view.

The iDevices would only charge through APPLE Certified i Wireless Chargers. Not even Regulat ones so that Apple can have their apple & eat it too. (PUN Intended)
        iDevice Guys, get ready, Another physical port is headed for demise, this time it's LIGHTNING..
        :P
        PS: They are still gonna say... APPLE DID it FIRST.

                This is the start of more issues to come. Haha
                Apple seems to be a perfectionist but they failed to make sure that an issue would not occur in their new iPhones.

                    They are preparing their customer to the next iPhone feature - no charging

                      Wow, such a tragedy. It doesn't take long to wake it but it's already another first-world problem.

                        People are paying $1000+ for these faulty devices... You would expect a company like Apple to maintain good quality control... But nope.

                          android users ITS TIME to take your popcorn and watch as apple sheeps refuse to accept it and will come up with the craziest ideas ever, like apple made this on purpose just in case a hacker will try to charge your phone remotely so you have to wake it up so the phone will know its you... hahahahahhahahahahah YES IM LAUGHING AT YOU. SUFFER SUFFER
