I wonder if they will - for the upcoming ones? With rumours circulating that the halo colour will be changed from pacific blue to a bronze colour and the space grey changing to a jet black type colour, it makes sense to hold off on colour matching for a couple of months?
That sounds plausible. Has Apple ever offered battery packs on iPhone release day? I don't think they have.
From Apple:Ok, so hmmmm, how I charge it!?
I feel like people aren’t really thinking this through. Fast charging matters more when your phone is tethered to the wall. If you are using an external battery like this to supplement your phone’s battery, it doesn’t make a lot of sense to charge as fast as possible; it’s just creating more heat and shortening the useful life of the phone’s battery more quickly, and the phone isn’t tethered to anything. This was probably exactly Apple’s logic, since it charges the phone at 15W when plugged in.
It’s like they didn’t even read or process the OP either. The author literally states what the Wh of both the battery pack and an iPhone 12 are, and shows how the pack’s Wh rating is higher. But oh noes, the mAh rating is less, what a joke!
This might be the only use case where 5w is actually better than faster charging. 5w limits the charge lost though heat. And since it's stuck on the back of the phone anyways, what does it matter how slow the charge is? It's not like you're waiting to charge it so you can grab it and go somewhere.
I use it almost everyday, works perfect and charges my iPhone 12 Pro very quickly. I do a lot of filming with my iPhone 12 Pro so the battery needs to be charged between work. It will charge my phone from 50% to 100% in about 30 minutes or so if I turn off Optimized Battery Charging. If I don't turn that off it will charge from 50% to 80% in about 20 minutes and not go beyond that. Worth every penny and the MagSafe is very strong and doesn't fall off easy...
At 7,6V. The iPhone battery capacity in mAh is always related to one cell voltage of around 3,6V. You also have to consider the voltage.
To be honest, I don't actually know. If they do, whenever they do it, it'll be interesting to see if they match ALL the colours (the pro series and the non pro series colour range) ?
Funny how Apple has nothing listed for specifications on their product page like capacity or estimated usage. Technically didn’t omit capacity but for the customer hopefully find it.
Why is there no MagSafe battery pack for the iPhone 11? I know the technical reason for that but my point is that Apple added a new type of product (this MagSafe Battery Pack) and removed another type of product (Smart Battery Case), comparing today’s situation with that from a year ago.
