AnonD-731363, 20 Apr 2023Man honestly they removed charger from box allowing custome... moreDude I have been buying smartphones for an over a decade and a half, I have charging bricks of various types coming out of my ears, never have I damaged a battery from using one of them. Not sure what point you are trying to make there though, I didn’t agree with Apples decision to remove the charger, not that they sought my opinion on the subject. I also would have advised Android oem’s not to follow suit, but as per usual many of them just couldn’t wait could they.
How about you answer my question now, how will the next iPhone be ‘DOA’ if Apple decide not to go from 27w charging to 300w? Cause that’s what you said will happen.
Meanwhile I reckon Apple will either stay at the current rate or make a modest increase (40-50w tops) and the iPhone 15 series will sell like hotcakes anyhow, and people on this site who wouldn’t touch an iPhone even if it charged at 1kw will complain regardless, because that’s what they like to do with their time.
Now, which of us to you think has a better chance of being correct on this eh? 🤔

DaFink, 19 Apr 2023Not going to lie, I can't be bothered reading all that... moreMan honestly they removed charger from box allowing customers to buy anything lot cheaper because original charger in some regions cost 50 euros just for the wall brick. Not to mention apple charging mat which is between 300 to 500 vendor dependable.
If custoemer in this case for example you buys 2eur charger from Alliexpress or wish site and his or your phone or battery gets damaged because he used inaproporiate charger will you blame your self for not buying original charger to save 23-48 euros or apple for not giving charger into the box???
Want to know your answer.

AnonD-731363, 19 Apr 2023Man which phone needs a fire hydrant???
Please englighten ... moreNot going to lie, I can't be bothered reading all that. You wanna plug your phone into something better suited to running a kettle then by all means go right ahead. I still wanna know how not having ridiculous 300w charging with have any affect on Apple sales, especially to the point of it being 'DOA'?
Apple have kept their charging rates quite conservative all along and enjoyed massive success doing so, why would they suddenly need to add 273w to that charging rate this year??

Please englighten us why in the world of history past 5-10 years the only companies which had a problem with charging was Samsung Note 7 to be exact or Apple and their famous battery gate and said kill switch to preserve battery and from a new device reduce its power for sake of battery.
Those are the only one who realy removed charger from box allowing customers to buy whathewer charger they want ignoring the fact non original charger works differently and could damage the battery.
No other company ever had a battery or charging issues. Not even Oneplus when invented Dash Charge in 2017.
Not even realme, Oppo, Vivo, Xiaomi, ZTE etc. when invented phones with 150+ Watts charging.
Glad you foooling your self and everybody else.
Noone past 5 years ever had an battery or charging issues and nothing were posted on theses pages. Even GSMArena team confirmed its not the speed of the charging which kills the battery but heat.
And when charger can sustain this heat and nothing will come to battery battery is safe even with 300W charging.
Man buy what you want but waiting 2 hours for charging a phone in 2023 is waste of time and life. Like you wont leave your house with flat battery in phone I.E. without your phone you wont go too far anyway.
Since they invented phones and made them cheaper they become part of our lives.
Apart note 7 and famous battery gate no other phone needs firehydrant.
Fact the Apple company is not willing to give charger and faster charging means they are afraid of own skills, technology and people. They not believe them selves and thus they dont deserve customers money because they failed to walk wioth the current era and people needs.
Would never turn back to anything slower than i have now which is 67W charger on my redmi phone. And will go to and for 150W at least when buying new device.

Anonymous, 19 Apr 2023300W that is 300W or 70% of this like chinese brands do?
... moreMan no chinese phone have 55 celsius using a fastcharging of 100W plus. Thats a reality not your false assumption.
That phone with 280W charging speeds tops up battery in like 7 minutes a time when battery wont have a chance to heat up enough to get damaged.
What do youu think will damage batery more?
Spending 2-3 hours from flat to full on charger like case of Apple, Samsung, Sony or Google when constant temperature will be between 35-50 celsius.
Or a 7-10 minutes of charging from flat to full on a 200W plus charger where battery barely wont heat up enough to get damaged and you unplug your charger because battery will be 100% and phone ready for another 2-3 days of use.

Oh that's tickled me, you care you explain what exactly a 'good looking notch' would look like??? maybe a fancy hair do, pouting lips, seductive eyes, what?????
One thing that has never happened to me in real life is nobody has ever come up to me and said 'hey take a look at my new phone, and get a load at that notch eh, yeah that sure is one good looking notch'

Does the phone needs to get super hot like chinese phones too?
When xiaomi phone gets hot and over 55 celsius whilecharging, what is making phone that hot.
Have you notice laptops batteries have shorter lifespam compared to phones?
The faster charging happens.
