It’s not, this headline is trash
Seriously?! $3500 and it’s lightning?!
It’s not even something you need to plug or unplug, it’s supposed to be more or less permanently attached to the battery. You need to use a special tool to unplug it.
Which means a good thing, the battery is replaceable!!!
Why would a cable being attached prevent it from being replaced?
I’ll let you think about this for a bit…
The cable is not fixed on the other side. If you replace the battery, you could just get a new cable with it.
Oh ok my bad then. I thought it was a HomePod kind of situation.
Yeah and the capacity of the thing is small given the size of the battery. I think it means you’ll be able to buy a third party battery that is the same physical size but has like 5 times the capacity. Rather than just 2 hours of battery life, you might get 10. Not really clear why Apple didn’t offer a larger capacity.
given the connector , it’s not just a bunch of cells in that box. So not sure if we’ll be able to cram more W/h in the same space but I can definitely see larger boxes with longer battery life. My guess is they didn’t want to make a bulky and heavy device. If you want to be on it for longer then plug in the wall (or a secondary battery pack)
It’s not actually lightning, it just looks like it.
Wide Lightening cannot harm you. Wide Lightening is inaccessible without the aid of a SIM opening tool.
