What's the point of wireless charging_The advantages and disadvantages of wireless charging
What is wireless charging technology？
Wireless charging technology is a technology that uses magnets to charge devices without using wires at all. Wireless charging technology, derived from wireless power transmission technology, uses magnetic resonance to transmit charges in the air between the charger and the device, and coils and capacitors form resonance between the charger and the device to achieve efficient power transmission technology.
The wireless charging technology adopts a unified industrial standard. In the next few years, mobile phones, PMP/MP3 players, digital devices, mobile devices and other products can use the same new low-energy, highly compatible wireless charger. This charger is similar to a tray that is directly plugged into the power supply, and mobile phones of different brands with the "Qi" logo certified by the alliance can be directly placed on it to complete charging.
What is the significance of wireless charging？
The wireless charging technology is convenient and easy to use, and it breaks the limitation of space, so users can use one transmitter to charge multiple devices at the same time, and there is no special requirement for the location of the charging devices.
For the entire technology industry, retail industry, service providers and consumers, wireless charging technology is of great significance. Wireless charging stations will soon appear in cafes, airports, restaurants, movie theaters and other public places. Consumers can charge their devices almost anywhere, anytime. Retailers and service providers can even use wireless charging to promote value-added services, providing personalized service in mobile users' favorite stores, airports and other places.
There is no doubt that all smartphone users will think that wireless charging is a cool feature. But in the world of IoT, where consumers have dozens of connected devices at the same time, this is definitely a very important technology.
As the industry continues to work on unified standards and end-to-end wireless charging solutions, wireless charging technology will slowly enter the mainstream market, and in turn push the connected world to its full potential.
The advantages of wireless charging
1. Lightning cable wear is reduced
On the other hand, the popularization of iPhone wireless charging will reduce the use of cables. Wear and tear on cables will be reduced to almost zero. Just plug the wireless charger AirPower into the power supply, and everything will be fine. Users no longer need to frequently plug and unplug the phone, reducing the wear and tear between the Lightning cable and the interface
2. Convenience, especially when charging multiple devices
The biggest advantage of wireless charging is convenience. Wireless charging has little impact on mobile phones, but when all electronic products support wireless charging, the convenience brought to users is more interesting. Apple says future models of AirPods wireless earbuds will come with an AirPower-enabled charging case, so users can charge them simply by placing them on a charging pad. The Apple Pencil desperately needs wireless charging, and its current charging method is a joke.
Wireless charging is ideal for small electronics. Imagine having a charging pad in your desk drawer where you can drop your iPhone spare batteries and keep them fully charged when you need them.
In addition, users only need one charging pad to charge multiple devices. For example, users don't need to unplug their iPhones while colleagues are charging them.
3. Wireless charging helps to improve safety
Using wireless charging technology means that users do not need to connect their iPhones to unknown cables, which are the hiding places for all malicious components. Placing an iPhone on a charging pad should be safe—unless hackers develop malware that exploits wireless charging, and so far no such malware exists. With the iPhone supporting charging pads, we can expect charging pads to appear in hotels, restaurants, and other public places in the near future.
According to Cult of Mac, the popularity of wireless charging pads may change the way we work and live. When going out, the user no longer needs to carry a huge spare battery with him, he only needs to put the mobile phone on the public charging board that can be seen to charge the mobile phone. Charging pads may rival free WiFi in popularity.
