No. I'm not talking about using 3rd party charger like Moxxo, Aukey, Anker, uGreen, etc.. I'm saying if I'm using Huawei or Samsung wireless charger which giving more powerful wireless output charge compare to MagSafe Wireless charger by Apple.

Will Huawei or Samsung wireless charger give the same input  15W for iPhone 13 model.
*
I believe the correct answer should be -

Only certified wireless charger that comply with the MagSafe standard would get 15W.

Huawei and Samsung wireless chargers are still 3rd party, coz 1st party option is MagSafe anyways.

Someone posted b4 here I think.

Not sure where but it was few pages back for sure.

But wireless already not bound to any hardware in between.
See see if any in JewTube video provide such info.

Found this online while reading :-

MagSafe combines a ring of magnets for secure attachment, an single-coil NFC to identify accessories, and a magnetometer to know when an item is attached, all around a more powerful Qi-based wireless charging coil (up to 15 watts, up from 7.5 watts in other iPhones). Note that a lot of devices are being billed as “MagSafe compatible,” but that doesn’t mean they support the faster charging or NFC—they merely have a ring of magnets in them. MagSafe compatible is not necessarily real MagSafe.

iPhones with MagSafe still work with regular Qi wireless chargers, they are just limited to the same 7.5-watt charging rate as earlier iPhones with them. And MagSafe is used for more than just charging—the magnetic attachment feature will make it possible to snap on all sorts of accessories.


Guess to get that 15W speed, it has to be MagSafe standard aka got chip or something to confirm it's apple's standard.

Anyone tried the magsafe wallet? good or not? feel like getting one for daily work use, lazy to bring wallet to office, since seldom using cash nowadays, only need to bring IC, driving license and a credit card.

Which other brand recommended with strong magnet? I’m just afraid easy drop then no point to get it as the purpose of getting magnetic is to stick easily and hold strong to prevent dropping.

Tbh, I dun use any MagSafe stuffs lol

I find it troublesome.

I got a power bank that supports wireless charging if I need to use, but most of the time, I rather plug in cable and charge directly.

But how do i know if it's 7.5w or 15w beside looking at the time it takes to charge?

Basically you won't know unless you have tools to test it.

I’m skeptical buying accessories like adapters and cables from local resellers..and end up always buying from AASP for the peace of mind....these resellers Mark their products as 100% authentic and genuine but they are actually not....funny enough one of the shopee reseller put 100% authentic on their product page but when texted him, he say it’s 99%, when asked where’s the 1% and he went mia...dry.gif

Means fake la tu laugh.gif

I want to get a HomePod mini but I am very skeptical as some unit can be fake or problematic.

i wonder how they buy the fake account to do good review. because whenever u sell item, the buying process has to be there. mean not any ah kau, ali or muthu can review without buying. And if the buyer buy, means seller have to deliver the item, because is in the system. even they don deliver or they deliver a piece of rock, they still have to pay the margin/commission to platform like shopee and lazada.

probably small value item ok la, this one rm788, maybe the price before this is rm100 only? I think shopee should put historical price for the item, so ppl can trace. the review cannot carry forward one also.
*
I know this one.

My friend kinda work for one of this “fake review” thing.

Basically seller pays a 3rd party to create many many many dupe email account, and lazada allows acc to change name, so can just use back same email, but need to change name.

3rd party then proceed to buy the items, and seller don’t usually ship out the item, just empty boxes sometimes for the sake of shipping. Photos and etc given in advance d. 3rd party just need to review 5 star and get paid commission. Pretty straightforward laugh.gif

That’s why a lot of places can get 5 star reviews but kantoi selling fake item 😂

Amazon and Ebay had been doing this for years....hahaha...nothing much more worth it then wasting a few hundred ringgit and get the quick 10% sales for few month.... after all, nothing happen if the account ban, just create another and rinse and repeat

eBay no problem thou. I just press dispute with PayPal mostly. End up 90% getting my money back.

Problem with our local platform is, that layer of protection is lesser.

There are few times shopee just close my case despite clearly seller being at fault (Send out wrong item, miss out item but don't want reply and etc).

eBay resolution much more streamlined and their process heavily favor buyers unlike other platform in Malaysia, which are 50-50

I opt for Maxis plan in Machines pre order. So need to pay RM300 deposit upfront. They didn't mentioned this RM300 will not deduct from the balance but it will become as a store credit. So I still have to pay full during pick up, without RM300 deduction.

If they say upfront before I place order still acceptable coz I already know it to decide whether to proceed or not. But according to their website T&C, no such info saying deposit will turn into store credit after successful pre order.

Sigh... if I still haven't buy accessories still can use it to buy accessories. But I have already bought two casing, 2m cable, MagSafe charger... during 10.10 sale. So nothing to buy already. Don't know how to utilise it.

Anyone need to buy something from Machines? Use my store credit.
