MagSafe Magnetic Charging

One similarity between the iPhone 12 and the iPhone 12 Pro is their battery life. The phones provide passable battery life, however this is a rung down from 2019’s iPhones. I’ve typically been getting about just over four hours of usage for each full charge using 4G, 5G and Wi-Fi. Now, this is only a full day of usage, and has a small buffer amount of charge. For example, I could easily get at least a day-and-a-half from both the iPhone 11 and also the iPhone XR. Getting a full day’s usage is fine, but it would’ve nice to have more of a safety net for those days where there is a lot usage.
Speaking of charging, the company has gone with a rather interesting policy of stopping bundling power adaptors and earbuds with iPhones for environmental reasons. So all you will receive in their box – other than your iPhone 12 itself, is a USB C to Lightning cord. I do not think this is a big deal. Apple’s Earpods aren’t the best, & most people do have a power brick anyway. And the problematic part is Apple’s selection of cord. You will be needing a power brick with a USB Type C port to use it but if you are coming from an iPhone 11 Pro Max, your iPhone charger will have a USB connector.
However you can utilise an older cable & charger, however you’ll not get the quick charging times that the iPhone 12 can achieve. And if you want to buy a USB-C charging adaptor, you are spending $30 in order to buy one of these.

It’s Reffered To As MagSafe Because It Uses Magnets

Don’t forget, Apple also now has their convenient new wireless charging standard named MagSafe. This system consists of a circular shaped wireless charger that will magnetically snaps onto the rear of the iPhone 12. And this gives the best alignment to get faster wireless charge, and it means that you are able to use use your phone while it’s being wirelessly charged which you cannot with a standard charger. You can able to get a faster charge with a normal charger, but MagSafe can charge the iPhone 12 from zero to 40% in around half an hour.
Because it is Apple buying MagSafe is going to cost you more. You’ll need to spend nearly $65 for the charger itself, as well as $29 should you need a USB-C charging adaptor. And if you are wanting the magnets to snap to your case or cover, you will need to purchase a MagSafe case. The MagSafe charger can charge through most cases and covers, but it won’t stick to it. Apple’s MagSafe covers and cases start at $79.
And while there are aspects of Apple’s MagSafe that are OEM, it will function as a normal wireless charger that is compatible with any phone that uses it. The charge time will be a bit slower, however as fast. As of right now, MagSafe is a new, fun and costly accessory, and I’m interested in seeing where the system will lead to.
Because most of iPhone owners don’t need a MagSafe charger for the office, there sure is a lot of potential when it comes to accessories such as vehicle mounts where MagSafe will prove beneficial.

Larry Tesler Was Also Apple’s Chief Scientist. Larry Tesler, the computer scientist, who is famous for inventing the computer concepts cut, copy and paste, has sadly passed away at age 74 BBC News reports . Larry was born in New York in the year 1945 and he studied computer science at Stanford University. After his graduation, he worked in the university’s computer science and genetics departments before he became a research assistant with the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory.  In the year of 1973, Tesler commenced working at Xerox’s Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) and it is here that he developed cut, copy and paste. The concepts have been instrumental in the development of text editors as well as early computer operating systems.  While copy, paste and cut were developed at PARC, the research center is even more well renowned for the early work on GUI (graphical user interfaces} and also using a mouse to navigate them.  Steve Jobs, Apple co-founder used ...

An Al model that was developed by HedgeChatter founder James Ross has predicted Coronavirus would affect well over 2.5-billion people worldwide. It also predict the virus will kill almost 53 million people in only forty-five days from when this prediction model was developed the end of January 2020. 'Artificial intelligence simulation predicts 2.5 Billion people infected and 53 Million dead in 45 days' if current growth rate is not mitigated. #coronavirus #China #Wuhan #pandemic #2019nCoV #nCoVtracker https://t.co/f1mL4X7xne — Coronavirus Pandemic Tracker (@COVIDtracker) February 8, 2020 https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js An when you consider that by the 18th of February 2020c there have been 73,259 infected cases and that this model projected that there would be over 200,000 by the third week of February this year, it shows that the model is clearly not taking the same trajectory.  It does show however that either the initial data was inaccurate, or that the s...
