charging

Hi! I have a new iPhone 12 Mini, latest iOS and all. I've put it on an AC charger for the night (Apple A1400, 5W), the same way I did for the past week, and it chimed and showed the "charging" status. Then, this morning, it was on 25% charge. As it turns out, despite registering the charger...

I have noticed a weird difference in battery life between my 12.9” iPad Pro (2018) and 11” iPad Pro (2018). The latter was formerly my wife’s, but she decided she did not want it anymore and so I decided to use it to help me decide on which iPad size I would get in the future. Using a shortcut...

I have 2 phones, iPhone 12 and 7 Plus, both with the same iCloud and App store logged in account. iPhone 7 Plus: OBC (Optimized battery charging) turned on, significant locations off (so OBC probably won't work) iPhone 12: OBC turned on, everything turned on in privacy When I charge both...

Hi everyone. Here is quite the newb question - sorry if this has already been answered. I'm currently looking for the best powered docking station and/or hub for my MacBook Air M1 and my MacBook Pro M1 Pro. But here is the twist : I don't want it to power my MacBooks. At all. I just want it...

Hi all, Can someone tell me what’s going on here, when watch is on its charger it goes into a loop every15-20 seconds? Iwatch series’s 5 Thanks

Anybody else's battery charging pattern look like this? Loads of little inconsistent charges rather than one continuous green lozenge. This is from my iPhone 13 Pro while connected to a Magsafe charger and 20W charging brick - have tried with the included USB-C to lightning cable an 18W...

My 2020 MacBook Pro is no longer charging. Today I was video editing, battery was low. I plugged it in, charged for 30min then it stopped charging. Yes, I have tried all USB ports and different wall sockets in the house. All other gadgets and electronics work fine. FYI it got a new topcase in...

I've noticed that whenever the laptop is charging via Magsafe 3 or a left TB4 port that there is CPU usage induced static noise through the headphone jack. It's especially prevalent while scrolling through a webpage and listening to a quiet Facetime call or YouTube video. The left channel of...

At home, I work on my M1 MacBook Air connected in clamshell mode to my 23.7-inch LG UltraFine 4K Display, but I notice the battery usually charges to 100%, and remains charged while connected. However, I've been told that it's not ideal for battery life to work with the laptop plugged in all...

I got my 13 Pro a two months ago and all was good. It's a great phone and had been loving it, at first. However, I started encountering issues with charging with the lightning port on my 13 Pro, where charging would immediately stop and restart (often in less than a second). I discovered several...

I saw that the iPad is shipped with the 20W charger. As far as I know, the Air 3 had the charging speed closer to 30W for a while. Any info about that with the 9th gen? Thanks!

Hello everyone, There is an issue with the M1 16" related to charging When the mac is off with the lid closed, if you plug the MagSafe charger, it will not charge and continuously beep This issue seems widespread, but I haven't found it discussed outside of Reddit: I face the same issue...

I have 2 sets of Airpods, 1st gen. My wife was using one pair and me the other. After a few months of usage, my right airpod started to lose charge (goes dead) after about 30 seconds of use. A few weeks later, my wife's right airpod started to lose a charge, after about 2 minutes of use. We...

Hi people! I bought the MBA 2020 M1 and I am loving it. Even though I have the charger and the cable that came with it, I am shifting home to work and vice versa daily. So, I was thinking, I need a secondary charge option when at Home, to leave the charger at office as is. I have a Mi Power...

Wondering if anyone has tried to source just the pencil 2 charging board and connect it to an external power source to create a hacky off-iPad charger? If the logic board that’s part of it handles the actual charging regulation and power negotiation I wonder if it would be possible. I can’t...

Hello, Last year (December) I’ve purchased a Base Station Watch Edition, worked wonders for 4 months. After that it failed, I opened a claim and got a replacement. Worked a month, it failed again. Got another replacement. Today the 3rd one died. It started blinking, shut off and it was...

Hi, #1 Is it really so, that there's no cable, that you could get 2,4A from Apple's own usb-a charger to iPad Air 4(2020), which has usb-c? #2 No matter what cable you use, it will always cut the current to 1,4A, because Apple's usb-a chargers aren't PD compatible? #3 Is there any PD...

I have been using my Shortcut reminder to unplug at 96% charge everyday. Occasionally I miss the reminder and the battery gets charged to 100%. Most of the time, however, I unplug it at 96% and the phone rests unplugged overnight. I am not a heavy user and when I get home in the evening, it is...

I am curious, and I can't seem to find the info - when you plug in your iPhone or iPad in your Mac, it gets charged. It's hard for me to estimate how fast this is (I usually leave them overnight anyway) but I'm curious. Is it closer to those old 5W chargers or to the new 20W ones. I'm talking...

I use my Apple Pencil so far exclusively when I'm at my desk. I would like a way to keep it charged because keeping it on my iPad is a little bothersome. Definitely a 1st world type problem. Is there anything on the market like that?
