When everything is charged overnight, charging speed is kinda redundant pass a certain point so long as it's at 100% by the time you wake up.2022 is going to be an expensive year.
wireless charging would be too slow for iPad, no?
That’s correct! But do you know how big of a current layout wireless charging is on an iPhone? It takes too much space.„the report claims that Apple has developed iPad Pro prototypes with a larger Apple logo made of glass“
Yes, I did. See the above post, please.did you read the part where they menetioned, “larger Apple logo made of glass”. A larger glass logo to accommodate the current magsafe size and likely whatever upgraded standard they require for the bigger battery.
I said that already and you stole my idea hahhaa just kidding, friendThe glass Apple logo sounds pretty cool but could care less about wireless charging a glowing Apple would be better in my opinion.
It would make a lot of sense to add a Magsafe connector to the back of the Smart Keyboard Case which then connects to the smart connector on the iPad. When the keyboard case is open you could just slap the magsafe charger on the back of the case or it would set on "top" of the case when closed face down. It makes no sense to have a Magsafe connector on the back of a naked iPad, since very few people use them caseless and few would want to lay a caseless ipad face down or have it teeter on a puck on the back when face up. Also it would provide an incentive to get a Smart Keyboard case rather than a 3rd party one. Then I could use the same Magsafe puck to keep both my phone and iPad charged and wouldn't need both Lightning and USB C cables with me.Maybe Apple could use you know the “smart” connector to “wirelessly” charge an iPad?
I could imagine a significantly bigger logo actually looking nice, so tastes are obviously differentThat’s correct! But do you know how big of a current layout wireless charging is on an iPhone? It takes too much space.
I personally don’t think the Apple logo is going to be gigantic. if it is, It’s going to end up looking ugly. […]
What we need is the light-up Apple Logo behind the iPad. That’s much more appealing.
So we can have USB-C, Lightning, Apple Watch charging puck, and Magsafe 3 to charge many of your Apple devices? I mean don’t you get tired and eventually forget bringinh some of those cables when travelling? ?Why not just use the same MagSafe charger as the Mac?
This only makes sense if it's MacBook style Magsafe alongside a regular USB C port.
Who would want to precariously balance a 13" iPad on a charging puck that does 15watts?
I’m putting my iPad face-down all of the time, as it’s actually in a case with a front flap. It would be no problem to attach the puck from above - no need for any balancing.I was about to say the same. The mental image is hilarious. This has to come with some sort of a dock in order to be useful for an iPad.
In which case, it *could* be useful. Imagine an iPad dock with extra peripheral connections, which you could then connect to an external monitor. And imagine if it could all run MacOS. Just imagine........
I haven't yet formally asked, but put me down as one interested in the option.Who asked for wireless charging on an iPad? Seems pretty unnecessary.
That’s what the SmartConnector is on iPad Pro’s: charges and allows devices to stay connected with a little force to disconnect. I guess you missed that.Why not just use the same MagSafe charger as the Mac?
Originally I thought this to, then …Who asked for wireless charging on an iPad? Seems pretty unnecessary.
Me, I did. I asked.
wireless charging a 10"+ device does not make sense to me ...
Well there are times I grab my iPad to bring it somewhere else and I forget it's plugged in, and it tugs on the cord. MagSafe on the iPhone has resolved this issue for me, so it will do that with the iPad as well.Who asked for wireless charging on an iPad? Seems pretty unnecessary.
I use Smart Keyboard's USB-C port to charge my iPad Pro, which uses the Smart Connector. But the Smart Connector is meant for keyboard-style accessories and it charges at a slower rate than built-in USB-C port. Aligning the would-be cable to the Smart Connector wouldn't be as intuitive as Mac-style MagSafe connector..That’s what the SmartConnector is on iPad Pro’s: charges and allows devices to stay connected with a little force to disconnect.
