It all looks really nice, until you start wading through the dredge of fast charging, thunderbolt, displaylink over USB-c and whatever they’ll add in the future. But hey, you can basically charge over the same connector. Which was however already possible because all phones support the same wireless charging standard.

Show me a standard with this many features without these problems.
> But hey, you can basically charge over the same connector.
Yes, I can charge all my devices with one cable. Isn't that amazing?
> Which was however already possible because all phones support the same wireless charging standard.
Weird, doesn't work with my current phone. I guess it's not a phone then?
What’s the model? I’ll be calling the EU so they force all the manufacturers to support the qi charging standard that is actually useful.
Oh and of course lightning cable is the spawn of evil and glorious USB-C can do no wrong and any concrete criticism is hand waved away. Really shows you know what you’re talking about.

You know that USB-C isn't just charging, but also data transfer, right? I'd be up for this if wireless charging also supported USB-C speed data transfer. Since it doesn't I'm not interested.

I dislike non-standards, and I like standards. Why are you trying to paint my criticisms as so incredibly emotionally laden, when they are simply based on technical disadvantages? Is it so hard for you to accept that, for most people, this is a very good step?
You do know we have the technology for wireless data transfer already? And it has even been standardized!
You like bad products as long as they’re standards. Anything that is wrong with the bad product is handwaved away as just too hard. The true sign of the connoisseur. I suppose you’re also one of those people crying about the dear loss of their precious headphone jack.
> You do know we have the technology for wireless data transfer already? And it has even been standardized!
Yes, and it's not as fast as cable-based data transfers, and it is not part of wireless charging technology. Do you even read 10% of what I write? Or do you just scan my comments far enough to find something you can dunk on? That's what all your comments seem to be, but I'd like to assume you're capable of more.
If you want, you can try again without throwing all those assumptions at me. But given what and how you're writing, I'm done here.
