Google should come up with a solution to fix the heat and inefficiency issues related to magnetic battery packs. I have a suggestion:

A magnetic powerbank+phone case that go beyond magsafe to bring energy directly from a magnetic battery into the phone via a hybrid approach.

Imagine a battery pack with a few pogo pins embedded around its magsafe ring that could pair with an phone case that has the matching contact pads, along with a wire embedded in the case that goes from the magsafe ring into the phone's usbc port.

Energy from the battery pack could flow directly into the usbc port of the phone, without loose wires, giving both the benefit of a magsafe connection (pocketable, easily removed when not needed, backwards compatible with qi2, works with magnetic accessories like phone grips, car mounts, wallets, etc), along with the benefits of direct contact energy transfer (no loss of energy and much better thermal management). Something like this could handle 25 watts easily, and probably a lot more.

what if there was a battery pack with pogo pins aligned around its magsafe ring that could pair with a phone case that also had the matching contact pads, along with a wire that transferred power directly up into a phone's usbc port, so that, when the magsafe battery pack with pogo pins magnetically attached to the corresponding phone case, it would send power directly into the usbc port of the phone, giving both the benefit of a magsafe connection (pocketable and wireless), along with the benefits of direct contect energy transfer (almost no loss of energy, and improved thermals)

could something like this help address the general wireless charging issue?

Samsung needs to change the camera layout. The Samsung vertical camera layout makes it difficult for magsafe wallets to lay flat when the cameras go so far down the body of the phone. Either do a square or go horizontal, but stop the vertical camera madness and embrace magsafe accessories and cases

draft - I just want to say to Google that I don't know which magnetic case to buy because I'm not sure which one properly aligns with the coils inside of the pixel 8 and for that reason I have to return this anchor maggo magnetic power bank even though I would really like a magnetic power bank. But I guess I can't use a magnetic power bank because out of the hundreds of different magsafe cases for Pixel 8, I don't know which one to buy. The one that I have while it works well enough to attach a magnetic phone grip, it does not work correctly with a magnetic power bank.

and I guess I'm saying that I want to say this to Google because I guess I wish that Google had more or better publicized the specifications so that third-party case makers would have been able to properly place the metal rings or magnetic rings or whatever they are in their cases so that people will be able to use magnetic power Banks properly.

I mean I guess I kind of googled it a little bit and from what I googled maybe the torras case is the one that makes sense but I I don't know if I want to spend the $25 and then is it really going to work or is it not you know I mean I guess in a way I should be blaming Amazon because I bought the case that I do have is from Amazon. I bought it for like $15. It's functioned well enough. You know I like the way it is. I just wish that I guess the magnetic ring inside the case that I had purchased would have been properly lined for a magnetic power bank

So I suppose I could even blame the third party designer that I purchased this case from or whatever, but I don't know. I guess I'm a little bit upset that Google didn't include qi2 in pixel9. Even though I have a pixel8, including qi2 in pixel9 would have given me and other some hope.

And then I could go on and I could start blaming apple and Samsung for not allowing or not having multiple users on their operating systems. Because if they had multiple users on their operating systems then I wouldn't need to have a pixel because the reason I have a pixel is because it supports multiple users. And no, it's not for multiple people. It's for me to have two or three separate spaces on one single phone.

So I hope that the pixel 10 gets magsafe officially. And I also hope that iOS 19 includes multiple users and I also hope that Samsung adds multiple users to its phones.

abstract / draft - what to buy, pixel 8 with magsafe cases on amazon and/or costco 250 dollar touchscreen chromebook plus with core i3 and 512gb ssd

yaknow, the issue with getting a nice ass chromebook on sale for like $250 plus tax isn't the fact that its a nice ass deal. its then the fact that, if you want to talk to your parents about it, i'd type something in google docs like :

rdraft - sale notification

- costco $120 off sale - chromebook deal (expires nov 12) -

- 12th gen core i3

- USBC charging (non-proprietary, universal charging standard)

- ergonomic keyboard

- 8gb ram

- software updates until 2029

- 14" touchscreen

- 90 day return policy (or price match if it goes on sale any lower)

- 3 year warranty available for $70 (I will pay for the warranty plus $30 ($100 total) if purchased while it’s on sale)

costco.com/lenovo-flex-5i-14%2

this was from november or something

now there's this deal which is much better because its got a core i3 processor and 512gb storage and its chromebook plus etc... but like, lets say we got it. then what.

the issue is that there needs to be a specific drawer setup in the kitchen for it. this is why i'm pissed i missed the fuckin deal with sending google my fuckin 6th gen fuckin ipad to get the fuckin pixel tablet. once i get a nice case and glass screen protector for that, it feels more like, "solid" right? and then i can always bring out a bluetooth keyboard. but then it lacks the full desktop chromeos experiena;lsdkfja;sdlkfja;sldkjf;alskdjf;alskdjf. see i have to go like that on my keyboard because all the mental gymnastics involved with all this crap. i'm on amazon been lookin at the fuckin pixel 8 and the fuckin magsafe cases for pixel 8. and its 330am and i'm sitting here and its like. wtf do i wanna do.

here's the chromebook on sale for 250

costco.com/acer-chromebook-plu

and here's a link to pixel 8 magsafe cases on amazon

amazon.com/s?k=pixel+8+magsafe

or if that link doesn't work then just goto amazon.com and search "pixel 8 magsafe" without quotes. my current pixel 6a doesn't have magsafe so i have one of those finger rings on the back. but now with magsafe, i'd have to like, goto ebay and if i want a ring thingy i'd pay like 10 or 12 bucks or whatever for one (instead of a pack of like 4 or whatever that you got with the regular old sticky kinds, because the new magsafe ones are gonna be more expensive obviously. but like, um..)

i dunno. i dunno what to do or what to buy or whatever.
