iPhone owners will soon be delighted with a new feature available to them. Apple introduced AirPower, i.e. wireless battery charging.
Wireless charging stand AirPower it is very elegant and slim. It can be used to charge the batteries of several devices at the same time. In this way, we can charge the smartphone iPhone, a smart watch Apple Watch and headphones AirPods. We do this quite simply - just place the devices on the AirPower surface.
At first glance, AirPower is the innovation that many have been waiting for. Nevertheless, there have already been rumors that it is wireless charging harmful to Apple phone batteries. Adrian Kingsey-Hughes, a blogger for ZDNet, found that wireless charging shortens battery life. He expects to reach 500 charges, which should otherwise be sufficient for 3 years of operation, after only 20 months.
The problem lies in the fact that in the case of wired charging, the phone is powered by the cable, while during wireless charging, the phone uses its own battery. The wireless charger only increases the percentage of the battery that is charged. This is exactly why the phone is under load even while charging. As a result, the battery is in increasingly worse condition.
