Re: No wireless charging?
Induction charging also known as wireless charging is not good in the long term because wireless charging does not allow for cell balancing. To generate a (for a lack of a better way to put it) "clean" induction field is not a cheap thing to do. Most people are not willing to spend $200-$400 for a high quality induction charger.
Come off it. This is complete nonsense.
A phone battery only has one cell, there is no balancing to be done, further more the power still goes through the phones charging circuit which will make sure it is within specs for the battery.
If you want a simple non BS reason why wireless charging is bad, it is because wireless chargers generate waste heat (induction charging is lossy and the lost energy goes into heat), heat is bad for lithium-ion batteries that all phones use these days, and it will reduce the useful life of the battery.
But in spite of this issue with wireless charging I still use it for the convenience, although if my phone is too hot (e.g. after a long gaming session), I'll plug it in rather than use the wireless charger.
