Why not just do this?
Why not just do this?
Huh, that's a pretty good idea
can't charge $160 for that.
Courage means not taking half-assed methods. They want to kill wires, not make it even more complicated
Why even give headphones in the first place then, fucking retard?
A free pair of headphones with a lightning plug comes with every iPhone. As well as the adapter.
So they already do this.
guy meant to allow charging while listening to headphones. kinda stupid really since only autists charge their phones and use wired headphones at the same time. too many wires hanging on the phone.
I think they would have, were it not for some kind of engineering obstacle. They can't make the connector that small to handle 2 Lightning inputs. Have you seen the massive adapter? There's a lot of shit inside that thing.
why not just add another thunderbolt port?
wires are a thing of the past
i bet you guys don't even use wifi and instead of listening to music you just read sheet music and imagine the sounds you fucking faggots kill yourself NOKIA FORE LIFE
>t. someone who has never been on an 18 hour flight
Why not. It's Apple.
you fly around the world? or to the moon?
If they want a wireless future, then why haven't they put wireless charging in the iPhone yet?
>not make wires even more complicated
>have hundreds of different adaptors for industry standard connections
>has money for a 18 hour flight
>can't spend 50$ for Bluetooth headphones
>listening to audio for 18 hours in one go
Reply to me and tell me that you do this. If you don't, I'll safely assume you're just a fucking retard looking to make up shit to help your argument. Don't you fucking ignore me, tell me you listen to audio for 18 hours in a single session.
Mostly to Asia and Australia actually. Africa as well occasionally.
...
And how would I charge those headphones?
Easily.
Though I admit I sometimes pass out and just use them to block out ambient noise.
Because it sucks.
>Can't move the phone off the mat, making it even more restrictive than wired charging
>Low efficiency; wastes a lot of power
>Low charging speed, takes much longer
There is literally no advantage to current wireless charging.
>Why even give headphones in the first place then, fucking retard?
You get that for free in the box you fucking retard.
>Apple has designed new earbuds that feature a Lightning connector, and will bundle these with the iPhone 7. You'll also find a 3.5mm-to-Lightning adapter in the box too, which means you can still use your old headphones with the iPhone 7. Plus, a bunch of third-party audio companies are already selling headphones with Lightning connectors (with many more on the way), so you've got plenty of choice.
You buy 2 or more pairs, duh.
there's an external battery in the case.
enough for 5 charges, or 25 hours in total
So the vast majority of that time isn't you actually listening to anything. Good to know.
since you niggers sceptical,
Apple are brave and courageous for this revolution. AMD loving android users cant stand being left behind they are all luddites.
When someone comes up with a standard that charges off certain rooms wirelessly rather than having it needing to be on a fucking mat or attached to a cable, then they'll add it.
>sometimes
>vast majority
Why can't you assholes just admit that this is a step-back convenience wise for a significant amount of people? It's not like any of you mouth breathers have apple stock anyway.
this feature will be added to the iPhone 8, look forward to it.
I sleep to ambient music motherfucker.
>you gotta charge a battery and then that charges the other battery
this is thermodynamically criminal
Wireless headphones honestly seem like the most pointless invention in existence, there is nothing remotely annoying about wired ones so why make it so you have to recharge them apart from (((COURAGE)))
Didn't they say they could control the headphones better when attached to lighting port? Like adjusting noice canceling etc.
how is this a good solution ?
is apple expecting users to carry around the carrying case too ?
All they have done is take the bulk away from the iphone and moved it into the fucking case.
If you guys wanna see how fucking delusional Appletards are, check out this post by John Gruber... who's THE BIGGEST Apple shill in the world. He's supposedly an independent blogger but he's extremely close to Apple's executives and quite often he has them on his talk show.
daringfireball.net
But the best / funniest part is that he ABSOLUTELY HATES COMMENTS on blogs and has them disabled on his site but you can actually install a 3-rd party extension and comment/read what his readers are saying.
So, install this plugin:
chrome.google.com
And go read the comments. It's fucking HILARIOUS! All the comments are anonymous too. Clearly some Sup Forums ppl post there because I see a lot of Sup Forums memes.
>It's fucking HILARIOUS!
You must be at least 18 years old to post here :^)
Nobody will be buying this phone with a gun to their head. The people who buy it, may already have some kind of BT headphones. They did exist before you know and many people used them.
That's fucking retarded. Sadly there's a few of you around. Needing music to sleep is very strange. Do you listen to lullabies?
>bulk
Have you seen an average Sup Forums EDC? Sorry this doesn't fit into your skinny jeans, faggot. Also, 15 min charge for 3 hours battery.
Because this is post-Steve Jobs Apple, the Apple that doesn't trust its own product.
>oh shit they are making phones with bigger screen, what do we do?
>alright, let's copy them!
>oh and here's two versions of the same phone because we completely missed Steve's "One Product" mindset since we're incompetent
>oh shit our phone's too expensive in our brand that literally doesn't have a problem with this because it's supposed to be premium
>oh I know, let's make a shitty plastic poorfag version of our premium phones and devalue the brand!
>oh shit they are shitting on our bigger screens, what do we do?
>let's just literally backtrack on our brand new decision showing a complete lack of confidence in our design choices and return to the old format, here's the 4" iphone again h-haha...
>hey what if we create a billion and one versions of the ipad so it stands out very confusing and try to please everybody because we simply CANNOT understand the one product philosophy? That's right, let's just do like some average chink company and shit out 500 copies of the same thing!
>Jobs said that the stylus is dead for good right? What if we backtrack on his stance and go back to it?! Let's also make it recharge in the most cringeworthy way possible to show a complete lack of competence while we're at it LOL
>let's talk about courage for an hour and then provide an adaptor for the thing we're so couragelously moving from because we're actually shitting our pants. Oh and let's also keep talking about courage while providing the old alternative in the box as well lol
>Let's also talk about the wireless future but our phone doesn't recharge wirelessly rofl
This is what the death of a single man has created, a completely clueless company that has no confidence whatsoever in what it does and the paths it takes. Apple used to stand out, but now it's playing catch-up and going with the chink mindset of making 23490712309 versions of one thing.
This is their "courage".
Because then you can only use those Earphones with Apple(tm) products, and you can't use any other wired headphones anyways.
>Wireless headphones honestly seem like the most pointless invention in existence
Basically this.
> tackiness — certainly not sticky, but grippy.
This guy sucks at writing.
>Have you seen an average Sup Forums EDC?
I have never seen one out in the wild.
Shit, I rarely see BT headphones/earbuds but apples move forces *everyone* to have this problem
...
so why are you still here then, kiddo?
>chrome.google.com
First page of comments. Not much different from Sup Forums.
not this again...
This is how all current bluetooth earbuds work (jaybirds, earin, onkyo, samsung etc)
How much does the case cost?
People would not only be losing the earbuds but the case too. No case, no charging.
This is a joke, 1.5 hours of batter life.
>bar chart
>single bar
I will never understand marketing people
>People would not only be losing the earbuds but the case too. No case, no charging.
let us not forget
>tiny battery
>goes through many cycles
>holds a shit charge 1 year later
the form factor kills the battery life.
If they had some goofy extending tube the hold the battery...
1.5 hours for streaming from the phone
3 hours if you're playing it back from the earbuds
>the case acts like a charger too
That's sooooo much better than a single pair of headphones that never needs to be charged and sounds way better at a much lower cost. Thanks user!
Do they all have only a couple of hours of play time per charge? 5 hours or less on a brand new battery sounds terrible. My 10+ year old mp3 player plays for 40 hours on a single AA battery.
>Because then you can only use those Earphones with Apple(tm) products
Not only this, but you can't even use ANY Lightning earphones an ANY computer, Mac or not.
Unless they've added a lightning port to the Mac lineup?
Correct me if I'm wrong
with what can I listen with when these buttplugs are charging?
Apple moves will definitely benefit the whole industry. In a few years time wireless earphones would have at least 8-10 hours of battery life. Sucks for iPhone 7 and future iPhone 8 users though.
>"courage"
>nobody claps
>"3.5mm adapter included in the box"
>everyone claps
said a lot, didn't it?
with your backup pair, of course
>They want to kill wires, not make it even more complicated
And yet they still don't have wireless charging.
>Apple
>not taking half-assed methods
You tell'em, Raj
>there is nothing remotely annoying about wired ones
I disagree. The cable can become annoying when working out. But I'd still not trust wireless headphones. Too easy to lose.
>comment/read what his readers are saying
>his readers
*users who have this add-on installed because they feel the need to bash him
I had the same idea and was hoping that they would do that, but apparently they smelled a chance to sell more docking stations.
>imblying
maybe it's just the people who want their voice being heard?
Half of the audience are apple employees who probably clap when they're told to.
Haha what? The Samsung wireless charger has fast charging.
>maybe it's just the people who want their voice being heard?
Just look at
Any numbers? Especially compared to wired charging?
that's just Sup Forums fucking around. read some other threads that aren't from today.
What exactly is wrong with that picture?
Because that wouldn't look akward enough and force you into the future - AKA beats by drea^TM wirless headphones.
i'll bite
>ugly battery bulge on that iphone case looks awkward as hell
>you cant even use the magic mouse (or whatever its called) while charging it, charger is located at the bottom
>absolutely retarded way to charge the ipad pen thing
>>ugly battery bulge on that iphone case looks awkward as hell
Ugly? Maybe. But it fits perfectly into your hand and fits perfectly into your pocket. It's all about function over form.
>>you cant even use the magic mouse (or whatever its called) while charging it, charger is located at the bottom
Uhm, who cares? How is that a problem? A single Magic Mouse charge last 3+ months. And it tells you when it's down to 10%. You can then plug it in when you have some off time (coffee break( and due to fast charging, it will be up to 80% in 5 min.
>>absolutely retarded way to charge the ipad pen thing
It fits into any Lightning port. It even comes with a cable.
That whole pic is fucking retarded and a complete non-issue. But you'll never know that because youre stuck with some chink shit.
Just use Google you faggot Haha its not faster than wired fast charging but it's faster than regular charging.
Even on planes they have Internet Internet can still watch movies and shows.
Shill.
Stay mad, poorfag.
>Shill.
No counter-argument. I see I won :^)
Better luck next time, Pajeet.
So it isn't actually faster. Got it.
Why the fuck remove the 3.5 jack in the first place?? No fucking reason, none! Beside shill for their new overpriced pods.
The day iphone get wireless charging they will ditch even the lighting port. Mark my words.
What's the point in expressing how absolutely little you know about air travel? Is this trolling or are u just expressing your right to be a dumb fag?
>also carrying a fucking seperate power bank/box for your headphones
JUST
Faster than iphone charging........... Slower than wired fast charging you fucking idiot haha
Fast Wired > Fast Wireless >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Wired
You forgot normal wireless.
Fast Wired > Fast Wireless > Wired > Wireless
>>It's all about function over form.
>From my perspective, the Smart Battery Case’s major failing is its battery performance. With only 1877mAh of power, it delivers only a 77% recharge to a completely dead iPhone 6;
>9to5mac.com
It performs as bad as it looks
>Uhm, who cares? How is that a problem? A single Magic Mouse charge last 3+ months
>b-but it's not an issue
That doesn't mean that there isn't a design flaw, there are $5 wireless sweatshop mice that can be used while they are being charged but a company with a net worth of $500+ billion apparently can't create a wireless mouse with a design that's as practical.
>That whole pic is fucking retarded and a complete non-issue
>a stylus that needs to be charged and requires you to carry a cable around to be charged in a way that can't easily destroy the lightning port
For what purpose? Also you are really delusional if you actually think that charging it that way is practical and the stylus cannot be broken easily in such a position.
What does that statement have to do with my post?
Sounds perfect for the Think Different (c) crowd
You're right. You can charge $170 for that.
Why not just do this?
Shit. That would pretty sure solve the issue.
Buy a second pair.
#courage
>It performs as bad as it looks
[citation needed]
ppl love it!
>That doesn't mean that there isn't a design flaw, there are $5 wireless sweatshop mice that can be used while they are being charged but a company with a net worth of $500+ billion apparently can't create a wireless mouse with a design that's as practical.
bullshit. it's not a design flaw at all! it's a fucking wireless mice, not a wired one you retard.
>For what purpose? Also you are really delusional if you actually think that charging it that way is practical and the stylus cannot be broken easily in such a position.
it has to be charged you fucking retard.
you apple haters are extra fucking retarded.
I think you missed the joke
Apple made a step in the right direction with the iPhone SE and then just fucked everything up again.
The problem with apple is that they actually have some decent quality stuff, but it always has to come in a package with a steaming bullshit and they do all they can to convince you it has to be like that.
Fucking LOVE my SE.
>most people itt are too underage to know that kind of pain
Fuck you Nokia6020
Why not just have a headphone jack?
Same here. Pretty much a perfect phone. I hope the 10th anniversary iPhone is an updated SE.
