Apple iPhone 16e would not have MagSafe, however there is a repair

After I came upon that Apple’s new iPhone 16e would not help MagSafe equipment (regardless of having wi-fi charging), it was an disagreeable shock. I depend on not less than three completely different variations of the magnetic chargers day by day (together with a MagSafe Pockets), and shedding entry to these can be a bummer.

Extra broadly, the choice did not make a lot sense to me. Apple could also be chopping prices by omitting MagSafe on the iPhone 16e, in addition to differentiating it from the extra highly effective telephones in its lineup, nevertheless it’s positive to lose potential revenue on MagSafe equipment.

No matter Apple’s reasoning for this choice, the answer appeared easy: Simply get a MagSafe case. Nevertheless, sometimes for Apple, the corporate went all the way in which with omitting MagSafe on the iPhone 16e, as a result of even the official instances for the machine don’t help it.

Fortuitously, third-party corporations have already began to fill this hole. Spigen, for instance, has launched a reasonably intensive lineup of iPhone 16e instances, a few of which help MagSafe. An organization referred to as Mous additionally sells a few iPhone 16e instances with MagSafe.

I can’t be fully sure {that a} third-party case with MagSafe will at all times work precisely the identical as having MagSafe on the telephone. However provided that MagSafe is basically a Qi wi-fi charger paired with magnets to routinely align with MagSafe chargers, and the iPhone 16e does help Qi wi-fi charging, it ought to work wonderful with MagSafe-compatible chargers. Some options, reminiscent of Discover My for MagSafe Wallets, most likely will not work (I’ll put this to the take a look at as soon as I get an iPhone 16e evaluation unit).

Nonetheless, if you happen to’re eager on getting the iPhone 16e, and also you need to use MagSafe equipment, a third-party case might be your greatest wager.
