wired.com Aarian Marshall 2025-10-15 01:30:00

Should the company switch its trucks, cars, and vans to electric? It’s a question that plenty of businesses operating fleets of vehicles—in industries like delivery, health care, cable companies, and utilities—are thinking through. Eighty-seven percent of fleet operators polled by Cox Automotive last year said they were expecting to bring aboard some battery-powered vehicles in the next five years.

Wireless charging and iPhones have had an interesting relationship. While Android phones had wireless charging extremely early, it took Apple years to adopt the regular Qi wireless charging with the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus back in 2017. Back then, it only charged at 7.5W, and it was not very efficient. Then Magsafe and the Qi2 standard recently came around and allowed iPhones to charge at 15W. But now we are getting Qi2.2, which is faster, cooler, and more efficient, and Kuxiu is the first to bring
