    Why two tones when mounting to MagSafe?

    iPhone 15 Pro and iOS 17.x Why does the phone make two distinct tones when mounting to a MagSafe charger? One tone (thud) to indicate "MagSafe charging" followed immediately by the original tone (thwang) to indicate "charging". This seems very redundant since there's never an instance of...

    MagSafe Stand used in Apple’s presentation?

    Does anyone know what MagSafe stand Apple used during the iOS 17 and iPhone 15 presentation of Standby? It looked like a Belkin but the base is square. Also it has a cable below so it seems to be one were you provide the MagSafe charger. Thanks

    Cable Charger compatibility (Apple included)

    So I saw Apple has new braided USB-C cables! But the 1m cable is just 60W instead of 100W... Now, hypothetically... What if I only want to carry around one charger and one cable for iPhone, iPad and Mac... What if I use the shorter 1m braided 60W cable with a 96W charger and my MacBook Pro...

    Apple MagSafe Wallet falling apart

    So I have had this wallet since they came out, about 3 years ago. It’s falling apart now. I contacted Apple support and they said this is normal and it has “had a good run” but I could take it in for a Genius Bar appointment. Has anyone else had this happen?

    Hey, I am looking to move away from all of the cables & adapters on my table. Thinking about getting a first charging station, just not sure which one between these 2. Both are certified & sold by Apple. Price is same too, but if anyone has any experience with either I'd appreciate it! Cheers
