wireless everything is a meme

What do you need wireless for

I mean theres wireless devices like phones so you can take them with you but airpods and wireless charging and mouses... all memes

Real question: Would the fan even work in this case? I mean it's not a heat sink where there's a huge ass thermal conductive metal slab in direct contact with the innards. It's just a fan blowing on it right? I don't see how it does any good.

>Wireless charging.
>Meme

Do... do people honestly think like this? Holy shit. I mean, know it's not like SUPER important, but the convenience of never having to plug your phone up ever is worth $20.

>>60207095
Presumably that is a wireless fast charger whereas all the previous wireless chargers were slow, thus necessitating the cooling.

I have one and I like it. It's not a meme.

>>60207342
You'd be mistaken. It has literally the same guts as last years model.

Dumb "meme" poster.

If something gets hot, adding active cooling will remedy the problem. How is this a "meme"? Also:
>passing electricity through literal air
That is NOT what happens during wireless charging, or do you see arcing?

>>60207217
Convenience? Why wouldn't you pay a few bucks so that you never have to fumble with chords again?
Or are you one of those people that parks his own car 2 miles down the street and then walks because the lot costs $3.50?

>>60207095
I like wireless charging. I prop my phone up on the charger and use it as an alarm clock while I'm in bed.
Because I use a wireless charger, I can put a plug in my USB-C port which keeps dust and dirt and lint out of it when it's in my pocket or in my bag.

Of course it's not necessary but it's a nice feature and Sumsung don't force you you to use it.

>>60207870
I don't think its the wireless charging that people are annoyed at.
The new wireless charger from Samsung is literally the same thing as last year for 400% markup.

>>60207963
Yeah, that's shit but find me a business that doesn't pull that sort of crap. If there's profit to be made, they'll do it. At least you can still buy the old chargers if you want to pay less. If they made the S8 somehow incompatible with the S7/S6 chargers, that would be a jew move.

>>60208118
Yeah, They can do it but we doesn't mean we shouldn't call them on it.

"Wireless" charging - fucking meme.
So the electricity to charge your stupid phone magically comes out of the air?
You have to plug your "wireless" charger into a socket using a WIRE.
Which is no different to plugging your phone charger into the same socket using a WIRE.
Don't tell me that with "wireless" you're saved the herculean effort of having to plug that big heavy cable into a socket every day or so.
Only fucking retards pay extra for this pointless shit.

It's called "i don't wanna circle around in vehicle wasting time while parking the car further away and walk saved not only money but time".

>>60209239
Anon if electricity was passing through the air, it would produce a visible arch of light produced by a step up transformer.
The current is induced in the coil on the phone's charging circuit by passing current in another coil on the charging platform.

I suggest you read up on electromagnetic induction, it's highschool stuff

>>60209211
Sorry mate, but if 15min make or break your day, you need to review your life.

>>60209308
>it's only passing from one coil to another its not passing through the air

Wireless charging, in its current state, is for retards. Your phone is ironically more trapped and useless on a wireless charging pad than it would be if it were plugged into a charging cable. Not to mention that it's inefficient, hot, and slow.

Anyone too stupid to understand any of this, please raise your hand. Don't post. Just physically raise your hand irl and keep it there for a long time.

Oh of course we should call them on it. However, at the same time, I'm not going to condemn them for something minor like that when you have companies such as Apple fucking their consumers with the most disgusting money grubbing tactics we've seen in a long time. Removing the headphone jack just so they can charge anyone making an accessory for the iphone thousands for the use of their intellectual property is so unbelievably greedy.

This would be acceptable if furniture came with built-in charging pads, but if you need to put your device in a special holder in a specific spot, then that's just ridiculous compared to just plugging the damn cable into your device. Maybe in the near future it will make sense but for now it's a meme.

I too think "wireless charging" is stupid. My sisters husband has it. Seeing him try to get it placed just right on the pad so it would charge convinced me it's a waste of both time and money.

Give me something like a lightbulb or something else that would cover my entire livingroom and I'm in. Ignoring the technical aspects completely: Tell me that if I buy something that looks like a wireless router or a lightbulb that I place in a room and magically phones and tablets and computer mice and everything else in that room is charged (or just powered) then I'm sold. Basically a WLAN version of wired ethernet's PoE.

But placing something just right on a special pad? Might as well plug in the cable while you're at that pad.

I suppose if you don't ever intend on playing games or listening to hi fi audio.

>>60207239
I was wondering the same thing. Isn't the fan blowing in the opposite fucking direction of the phone?

I have a wireless charging pad by the bed, I can place the phone on the charger with one hand in the dark. I can't do that with a cable. It is actually convenient

>>60212805
Oh hello strawman. How you doin?

>>60207217
So you don't have to spend like 5 seconds inserting a cable into your phone.

Needing a fan for a charger is fucking ridiculous.

>>60207239
Blow air over your hand. Does it feel colder? Yes, the fan will cool the phone. It's not the same as a CPU cooler, but it works.

>>60212688
You are an ass hat.

>I don't like it so it's a meme

I never said that it's the next big thing nor did I comment on the amount of people that should be using it.

>>60207217
Come to think about it.... Wireless charging is more "wired" than normal charging. When its plugged in a cable you can pick it up and use it while it's charging. While when its charging "wirelessly" you can't do shit.
