    The fact that some of the gen Z crowd think it will be horrible have forgotten that it was much easier to carry 2 batteries and swap them out vs carrying a charger and cable with you everywhere. Pop in the new battery, power it on and carry on with you now full battery phone. Being tethered to a wall so you can have 10% from 20 minutes of charging is crazy.

      I used to do this. I thought it was awesome but I was literally the only person I ever knew who did this. It was not a popular thing to do.

      Don’t forget the option to carry a 30lb battery bank everywhere with you so you’re at least tethered to something marginally more movable than a wall.

      Seriously though, I miss my phone+battery in one charger and the ability to restart with full battery at around 4pm.
