Good video, but just to clarify, wireless charging is actually worse for your battery because it is thermally inefficient and generates more heat than wired charging. Heat is bad for batteries.
Hey thanks for the comment! Yeah, I learned that stipulation more clearly after this video. That said, as far as I understand wired fast charging, in particular, can lead to the same heating issues. (Help me out if that’s wrong tho) So sometimes it’s just being aware of your phone temperature and making sure you aren’t using your phone too much while it’s charging. I’m hopeful that wireless charging will be more safe and efficient as time goes on. I know my apple magsafe charger is pretty good at keep temperatures low, I imagine any Made for Magsafe certified devices could do the same. Or maybe apple’s iOS is what’s doing that work too. The wireless charger I use now (not in this video) has a fan that actively cools the phone as it’s charging on magsafe to keep temperature at a safe level. It’s the ESR Halo lock 3in1: amzn.to/3MBk8Wn
Wireless charger itself generates a lot of heat and then the battery is also generating heat as it is getting charged, and the heat escapes slowly due the charger attached to the back Whereas wired charging the battery is only getting heat, the heat is able to escape much better as the back of the phone is open and heat is able to spred faster
Thank you for using 2 in 1 at least with each one Take this rorry 3 in 1 MagSafe chargers both side same time for iphone and Apple Watch or AirPods Also stand vertically and horizontally And ring
So it’s a bit complicated but generally speaking yes, so as long as your wireless charger isn’t heating up like yours is, wireless should be. Or any form of charging that doesn’t heat up your phone. Some wireless chargers that try to compete with the speed of plug in charging speeds are more likely to heat up. Here’s a few videos that go into depth that you may find useful: Techinformative: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LmLDpulrZrc.html Rene Ritchie: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BL_jJMYwIiQ.html MKBHD: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UpqaQR4ikig.html
My first one that got (in this video) had that paint issue but the stand never broke on me. I ended up scrapping off the paint and buying one that isn’t painted. And that one I still use everyday and the only thing that has started to break is the elastic. Have you tried the new Snap 3 Pro from OhSnap?
Nice - what’s funny about 95% of the magnet rings is they didn’t continue the magnet on the other side so you can leave it on while charging - it’s like they all had 3rd graders design these rings 😂 had to make my own
If you do I recommend the silver one, so the paint doesn’t chip. They give you a lot of different replacement for the silicone strap. So if it rips you’ll have more. But honestly my favorite one to has been the super one Tristan’s and the snap 4 luxe
While I've learned better since this video, wireless charging isn't necessarily bad for battery health, it's the heat produced by some poor wireless chargers. Heat from fast charging is just as harmful to battery health. So it's best to just be mindful of how warm your phone is getting while charging regardless of the method. Thanks for calling it out tho!
You should buy a case too, I’d hate to have to replace something so expensive, maybe a clear one so that everyone will know it’s an iPhone 😒 Having insurance is rarely enough with all the provisions they have, so you might get it fixed or replaced if they deem it as damaged.
The MagOne? It claims that you can, but if it’s not the apple magsafe charger, it will charge for a little bit, then it will stop and start on and off randomly. So kinda 😅 the new oh snap grip is a good one that will supposedly do that better and works with magsafe now. Check it out here: collabs.shop/xmjry7
Wireless charging is not better for battery health, personally i have any type of fast wireless charging turned off. If i really need fast charging lll just plug in the cable
Yeah all of these work best with MagSafe compatible iPhones. But You could get a magsafe compatible case for your Xs and these could work. There are also adhesive versions of the wallet that you could get.
So this has been called out often since I made this video over a year ago. Main thing I compare it to is fast charging which can over heat your phone just as much as certain wireless chargers can. It’s best to avoid heat at all costs so regardless of how you’re charging just make sure your phone doesn’t get too hot and you can save some battery life.
"Wireless charging is better for battery health" Bro where do you get your information from?? The only plus wireless charging has over conventional wired charging is convenience, and minimizing of the charging prot wear and tear (which is negligible). Wired charging is superior in every way to wireless charging, it's cheeper form the start to the end too.
Hey Vidura, thanks for calling it out. I've learned a lot of info since making this video from other comments like yours as well as other creators' videos. But first, I don't think the 'only' plus to wireless charging is convenience, cause arguable it's not as convenient if you need to use your phone and keep it charged. As for where my info came from initially; I admittedly did not use wireless charging till magsafe became available and I got the magsafe charger from Apple. That said, I was told then that magsafe charging was better for battery health than my fast charger because of the heat it could produce. So that is the basis of my claims, but I've learned that not all wireless charging is equal and that even though my magsafe charger does a decent job in protecting from overheating (I think part of that is software), normal and cheaper wireless chargers can cause similar heating issues as fast charging. That said avoiding heating up your battery seems to be the best way to help your battery health.
Many people have corrected me at this point lol. Main point is that fast charging is also bad when it heats your phone up. So charge wireless or plugged but just be mindful of how hot your phone gets. I have a magsafe charger from ESR that has a built in fan to keep the phone cool while wireless charging
Sorry to hear that! I’ve been trying other MagSafe grip options. One of my new favorites is the Torras grip! You should check it out the grips on the back are nice and smooth
@@ardentlytech just purchased one from Belkin. Used to hold the iPhone onto a Mac to use the top down mode, comes with a ring to hold and can be charged through it. Not bad for £30
Heat is known to be bad for battery health. Regardless of plug in or wireless. If your method of charging is making your device warm, it’s bad for your battery health. But not all wireless chargers will do that just like not all plug in methods will prevent overheating.
@@ardentlytechagreed with your points there about heat but you didn't actually show anything to support that wireless is healthier claim. It's mostly about heat and wired charging should be more efficient being directly connected.
@@NateBraska you’re right! I’m constantly learning here. I have heard fast charging can be harmful as well because of that heat, so that’s what I was trying to say but did poorly at doing so.
Bruh! Same, well it scratched my case. But when I got a second pair for my wife. It did have a sticker and on the manual say not to spin it while the stand is open and if you need to move it you have to remove it to prevent scratches. I don’t think the one I had in this video last year said anything about that😩
@@Bruh-lm4zr bro fr. I’m also trying one from Torras that has a similar design but it has a loop instead of the elastic. Best part it has a soft protection so it won’t scratch your phone
Heat is bad for battery health not necessarily wireless charging. Just as much as fast charging is bad for your battery healthy if your phone gets hot. Just be aware of your phone’s temperature and you’ll be alright. I still have 97% battery health a year later and have primarily used wireless charging
@@ardentlytech Temperature is not the only issue. If you charge wired your battery gets downtime. If you always charge wirelessly it never does. It will massively reduce its lifespan by more than half.
I never heard that before but makes sense! thanks for sharing. Like many on here, I'm still learning everyday! As I understand and have expereinced, Apple has made some software updates that will stop charging when heat gets to a harmful temperature, as well as some other battery safegaruds when using magsafe certified products. I'm sure andriod has something similar for their phones.@@WyzrdCat
Yea let’s stick all my important cards in a wallet held on my phone by a little magnet. Slide it in your pocket wrong and poof. Gone. 🤣🤣 not 1 video has ever showed a phone with a case being charged by MagSafe 😂 I’ve never met a person that doesn’t have a case on their 1000 dollar phone. How unrealistic can they be with this shit
I feel you on the MagSafe wallet, I had same concerns so I limited it to my keycard for work and ID but never had an issue with it falling out without me noticing. But I was just hyper aware of not loosing it. As for the case thing, I just didn’t have a case yet when I recorded this video. I had just gotten the phone that day and decided to record a video. I got a couple mous cases that are always on my phone cause I don’t trust myself to not accidentally drop my phone. But yes we do sometimes take off our cases to feature the nice iPhone design of the phone in some of broll but we arent suggesting to go caseless. Just trying to get a nice shot
@@ardentlytech yea I was griping at some of apples features and designs not you sorry if it came out that way. But yea I work construction so my phones literally never out of my case. I drop my phone enough out of my semi that not having it in a case is an immediate death sentence. Seems like a cool product but I’ve never been able to use wireless charging due to having a case. Which is mildly irritating cause it seems cool lol
Oh no worries! Yeah I can understand that! I have always just gotten a MagSafe compatible case so even with a case I’ve been able to charge wirelessly! What kind of case have you used? I highly recommend the Mous line they have one of the most highly rated case for protection and they are magsafe compatible! They’ll basically build magnets in their case so you can stay protected and have the benefits of magsafe
