draft - magsafe standard - will the strength of the standard increase?

is it possible that the strength of the standard - like the magnetic connection itself will be improved over time or in the future? obviously not for existing hardware, but, would apple themselves ever enhance the standard so that it could be stronger to handle things like for example, the nintendo switch more legitimately

and/or maybe Nintendo themselves should sell a magsafe case for Nintendo switch with a really really strong magnet - I'd say probably double that of the strength for phones. so people could more easily mount the switch on goose neck things and similar devices when in bed etc...

A Hard Man to Like™ 🇦🇺

Bought a cheap #MagSafe-compatible case for the new #iPhone. Came with two screen protectors, two stickers (“Welcome to Mars” and “Never Give Up” and a thank-you note calling me “Sweet Angel”. Righty-oh then. (grabs phone, climbs into space suit and firmly latches helmet)

Things that were obvious design mistakes from :
- (not the technology, but the implementation)
- Removing (people like the convenience of not killing their laptop over tripping cables)
- Re-adding MagSafe (without actually addressing the problem that you need a whole new cable to just deliver power)
- Square alignment of arrow keys (does this even need a comment?)
- Removing the escape key (it's not just nerds)
- button that can't visually tell you that it wants your attention (believe it or not, but some people have no effing clue what to do when the TouchID popup pops up)
- The contrast of on calendars (eternal shit show of trying to read purple text on a slightly darker purple background)
- Everything related to (the way it's been buggy for years, the slowness, the non functional fuzzy search, the 3! distinct and horrible ways it works, ...)
- as a whole (anyone who is a tiny bit critical can't stand this piece of UX hell)

"Xiaomi just handed Apple a brilliant way to reinvent MagSafe—except this time, it’s not about charging. At MWC 2025, I saw a concept that could redefine smartphone photography altogether: Xiaomi’s Modular Optical System. It takes the biggest limitation of smartphone cameras—their tiny sensors and restrictive optics—and fixes it with a simple snap-on lens. Instead of trying to cram larger sensors into increasingly massive camera bumps, Xiaomi outsources the optics to an external lens that attaches magnetically, letting the phone handle the processing while the lens does the heavy lifting."

Ich war ja anfangs gespannt auf das neue #iPhone16e.
Als Nutzer muss man hier jedoch einige Kompromisse eingehen. Neben dem fehlenden UWB-Chip, #MagSafe (was ich ja mit einer Hülle noch kompensieren könnte) und dem wahnsinnigen SAR-Wert von 1,48 W/kg sowie dem hohen Einstiegspreis, klingt das Gerät schon gar nicht mehr so interessant.

Wie ist da eure Meinung?

Every single review of the #iPhone 16e calls out its lack of #MagSafe. I get it — an iPhone without MagSafe in 2025 would be functionally broken to me — but this phone is not for me, or professional reviewers. Apple said the e might stand for "everyone", but I think it's actually "everyone else": people who plug their phones in, who have no idea of the number of hertz their screen refreshes at, but want a nice phone that will last for a few years.
