Wired is more efficient, you can pick it up and use it while charging, and the cable usually comes free with the phone. What is the point of wireless charging pads?
I’m still confused about this “hassle” people have with a wire, like you just plug it in. I used a 2016 iphone se for 5 years, still use it now for an bedside alarm and have never had any issues with the port. I’ve used a samsung for the past 4 years and never had an issue with the port, now that I think of it, in the 20 years I’ve used cell phones I’ve never had any issues with any phone ports. I’m sure there are some that get damaged but it seems to be so unlikely that I don’t see the need to spend extra money on a pad
It is a hassle, even if very very slight. One you need to plug in something small. The other you just drop a big thing onto a slightly smaller big thing.
Arthritis, poor eyesight, poor lighting, temporary/permanent hand disability are some that I can think of that greatly benefits wireless charging and found plugging in a cable a hassle.
Fair enough, I didn’t mean to he ableist
