>It doesn’t properly allow for advancement of tech

Why do you want competition regarding computer charging when a huge collaboration of tech giants are working on a universal standard? Furthermore, Apple wasn't competing with USB; they were just isolating their ecosystem and forcing consumers on their own standard.

Imagine blaming the consumer. The solution here is regulating the giant corporation.

I'll allow it.

Spent quite a bit of time in the cockpit, too. Good memories.

No, but I have a lot of emotional baggage.

No, I don’t think you can read that from the interview. It’s obvious the Apple execs are trained very well for media and are choosing their words very carefully. If they didn’t say USB-C, then I don’t think they mean USB-C.

Just replace outlets with USB-C, too!

Technically they call them fans. Props can have a turbine behind them too.

Listen I think the same thing can be said about Wired headphones. I think they are better in almost every aspect over Bluetooth, But look where we are now.

Get a good ~400$ midrange phone, slap a folding screen on it, and sell it for like ~600$.

This trend is not gonna catch up if the entry point is 1500$

Meanwhile the Airbus A380 was only in production for 15 years.

The guy above is right for the wrong reasons. The problem is, any new plug in the near/distant future is going to require yet another revision to the law, but instead what's gonna happen is that manufacturers will be forced to keep old tech (future old tech) in, in order to comply, rather than lose time and money pushing for new laws.

>it would have to be done in a way so that people can go to target and buy a generic brand wireless charger

They already are compatible with any Qi charger since 2017ish?, magsafe just has the magnets to keep it attached

my point is Samsung fast charge is incompatible with Huwei super charge.

needing seperate adapters.

I can't wait either. If I want to power thru something I go on my computer with 3 monitors.

No, the person youre replying to meant a proprietary magnetic port, a-la magsafe, or MS surface dock connector

I personally went with the Microsoft Surface Duo 2. Microsoft took a different approach to the folding phone model and the Duo 2 is bananas. My big reservation with the folding phones is how delicate the inside screen can be and Microsoft solved that with their approach. Now that being said cases are very few and far between for the Duo 2 because of its unique design so it has other vulnerability considerations. Over all I've been blown away by the Duo 2 and I'll be grabbing a Duo 3 upon release.

I have a z fold 4 and love it. Couldnt go back go a standard phone now.

I thought I recalled the 747 only needing 1 engine to fly and land in an emergency. If I am remembering wrong and you're correct that it requires two, then I'd agree with you.

yep, thats why I want Google to make one. Samsung's bloatware is why I will never get a Samsung phone. I love Pixel's stock Android and its hard to go back to anything else after

Currently replying to you in a z fold. For me it's a great phone, I watch YouTube and almost all of my streaming shows on my phone and the big screen definitely is nice to have. The crease was something I noticed at first but over time I kinda forgot about it. Plus the folding part never comes loose which is surprising.

I think this phone is good if you're planning on using the big screen a lot, otherwise it might not be for you. It's pretty bulky in your pocket and the battery life is average at best. The folding screen is not perfect, not all apps are properly optimized for it, but it work surprisingly well for tech that's relatively early in its development.

Battery dead? How about a new iPhone 15!

Yeah that’s not a reduction. The number of engines has nothing to do with redundancy or safety.
