Apple had a big lineup of announcements last week. Of all the news, what particularly caught my eye is the iPhone 17e, which came on the heels of the Pixel 10a \u2014 its direct competitor. Call it incredible timing, but it almost felt like Apple was closely trailing Google and launched its own budget phone with one terrific feature I\u2019ve been sorely missing on the Pixel 10a: MagSafe.<\/p>\n

The entire iPhone lineup, from the cheapest iPhone 17e to the most expensive iPhone 17 Pro Max, has magnets for more convenient charging. In stark contrast, the weakest link in the Pixel 10 lineup is\u00a0the new Pixel 10a, which already feels outdated just a few days after its launch<\/span>.<\/p>\n

What makes you call something convenient? I\u2019d say it\u2019s getting the same or even similar results with reduced effort. MagSafe fits that statement perfectly \u2014 it lets you wirelessly charge your phone without worrying about placing it correctly on the charging mat. Without it, wireless charging can sometimes get so frustrating that you\u2019d want to plug in the phone instead.<\/p>\n

Between MagSafe with slower charging and fast but non-magnetic wireless charging, I\u2019d pick the former without second thoughts \u2014 the convenience is that addictive.<\/p>\n

Between MagSafe with slower charging and fast but non-magnetic wireless charging, I’d definitely pick the former without second thoughts.<\/p>\n

Beyond addiction, it\u2019s also about what device works better with your existing hardware setup. Smartphone purchase decisions aren\u2019t based only on which camp you\u2019re in \u2014 iOS or Android \u2014 but also on what existing connected devices you own; you wouldn\u2019t pick up an iPhone if your car only supports Android Auto.<\/p>\n

The same goes for MagSafe accessories. If you already have a MagSafe charger on the nightstand or as a car mount, you\u2019ll likely go with the handset that works with those accessories. Qi2 is now a critical feature I now look for while shopping for accessories or…<\/p>\n
