Charging Apple watch

[Armen]

Sorry, but please learn the meaning of wireless charging before you make ridiculous statement such as that.

Here is a pretty clear definition:

'Inductive charging (also known as "wireless charging") uses an electromagnetic field to transfer energy between two objects. This is usually done with a charging station. Energy is sent through an inductive coupling to an electrical device, which can then use that energy to charge batteries or run the device.'

It's funny how a 4 foot charging cable that begins at the wall socket that ends at less than 10cm electromagnetic field between the cable and the watch turns it into "wireless" charging.

Funny or not, it doesn't change the fact that the Apple Watch features wireless charging.

It is VERY simple. There are NO wires connecting the charging puck to the Watch. You can put a deflated rubber ballon between the puck and the Watch will still charge. If there is NO wires then it MUST be wireless.

It just occurred to me that we're going to be slapping a magnet onto a glass/ceramic/composite surface every night. Magnets naturally attract all kinds of ferromagnetic particles, which will then act like little pieces of sandpaper grit on the surface of the magnet. It will take no more than a week for someone here to post up how the back of their watch got scratched by a tiny piece of steel stuck to the magnet.

Better wipe the magnet down fairly frequently.
