Very girly

Are you implying that's somehow a negative? This personally does not appeal to me, but I know my wife would snatch this up in an instant, except for the price. There is a giant market for phone holders that essentially work the same way as a clutch, so there's no reason to think this won't end up being a relatively popular product.

How fast via the lightning port?

Lightning fast. 

I vote this for best comment of the thread!

That seems odd. While the argument that a compatible PD profile is needed, Apple themselves state in writing that iPhone 12 is "Fast-charge capable: Up to 50% charge in around 30 minutes11 with 20W adapter or higher (sold separately)".

The 'or higher' would indicate the their 30W, 61W or 96W would be just as capable. Has AI reached out to AAPL for comment?

In Apple terms, Fast-charge and MagSafe are two completely different things. Fast-charge is using a USB-C to Lightning cable plugged directly into the phone using an Apple 20W adapter or any USB-C adapter that shipped with a MacBook. MagSafe, using the Apple-branded 20W USB-C adapter, will reach 15W, but this is slower than the maximum wattage when plugging a Lightning cable directly into the phone. It also generates more heat, which then kicks in the throttling, thus making the device not reach 15W charging at all times, only at peak, perfect temperature conditions.

T-Mobile’s Magenta Military is a no-brainer for anyone who qualifies for it. We have 3 lines of Magenta Plus-equivalent perks for $90, taxes and fees included. And any line we add after that is $10 each.

I still don’t understand, based on this, how AppleInsider managed to get over an hour more battery life out of the iPhone 12 Pro compared to the regular 12.
