What a dumb opinion. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] V0lD@programming.dev 13 points 3 years ago (2 children) Considering it comes at the cost of your phone being more fragile, the argument is not without merit permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] NotYourSocialWorker@lemmy.world 11 points 3 years ago And the extra costs to support a feature I never use. permalink fedilink source parent [–] ErikDegenerik@lemmy.one 2 points 3 years ago (2 children) What does wireless charging has to do with phones being more fragile? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] V0lD@programming.dev 13 points 3 years ago (1 child) The glass backs that this conversation started with permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ErikDegenerik@lemmy.one -1 points 3 years ago (1 child) I hate wireless charging too, though. It's inherently less efficient than wired, and you have less range of motion while charging. With a wire, can still use my phone while it's plugged in. Wireless charging needs to go away imo.

Now I'm wondering how were you able to reply to it few hours later. Guess this Lemmy thing is still buggy. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] 14specks@lemmy.ml 1 point 3 years ago Ah, makes sense. Yeah it still exists on my instance. Hopefully the underlying bug gets resolved, since it's now wasted both of our time :) permalink fedilink source parent [–] cm0002@lemmy.world 9 points 3 years ago Metal backs are incompatible with wireless charging. So that leaves ceramic, plastic and glass. Plastic isn't "premium" enough apparently so that leaves ceramic and glass both of which are fragile permalink fedilink source parent
