Yeah, the wireless charging is a no-go for me as well.
I understand that it costs licensing and wastes energy.
But the environmental impact of all the useless/lost cables is also a point,especially when you get your energy fully renewable/self produced.
And in a lot of areas (airline lounges,etc.) it has become widely adopted/the norm.
They could easily have offered a “swap” battery that has a little less capacity but includes wireless charging - give people a fucking choice.
I agree wireless charging would be nice. But for a small company I don’t think they can do it “easily”. It’s 150 people team and how many phones do they even sell?
I imagine it’s not enough yet to support all that.
It’s also less waste if one of your charging methods breaks, as you can just swap over to the other method and might even find ordering replacement parts unnecessary.
Though ideally I’d also like to see more than one USB-C port for even more redundancy.
