The official tablet (and other useless electronics) thread!

[G.Irish]

wireless charging? meh. doesn't appeal to me to have charging pads all over the place. when they can figure out how to make my entire house a charger, i'm all for it and the guaranteed brain tumors.

...but if Apple did it, furniture makers would follow!

I think the reason non-iphone users like to give the iphone shit is because there's been a decade of "ZOMG MY PHONE IS SO GREAT." There's no doubt Apple changed the smartphone market and the world with the iphone, but they're no longer leaps and bounds ahead of Google and Samsung. I personally believe Samsung and Apple are on par these days and it's a highly personal choice. That didn't used to be the case, so it's fun to point that out to iphone fanbois.

No, no, no. If Apple did it, it would be, "forcing technological advancement." :lol:

No, it would be forcing advancement in living spaces and making the world more magical through the power of hardware design. Then the complaints would roll in from all the people that got their iphones stolen off the magical charging pads at Starbucks.
