Recently I was showing my partner my new powerwave stand that I’m using to change my Galaxy S9+. She was not impressed at all. She pointed out that the charging, while technically wireless, still required the stand to be plugged in, and that the wireless charging actually restricted how much the phone could be moved while charging.
I told her it was easier than plugging the phone in, you just set the phone down and it starts charging. At that point she made a show of having a hard time plugging in her phone (playfully mocking my statement that plugging was difficult or time consuming). After she “finally” got it plugged in, she then sat down and kept using her phone while mine was stationary on the table, in its charging stand. She then asked me if I could send her a text or check FB real quick. Then I picked up my phone and she pointed out that ti was no longer charging.
Anyway, her point I think is a good one - is wireless charging really any more convenient than a cord? Especially when you have a long cord that allows you to sit and easily use the phone. Keep in mind, she has a long Anker cable to use exactly for this purpose
So what do you think? Is wireless really all its cracked up to be?
