After the unveiling of the new Nexus 6P and 5X devices two days ago, everyone wondered why Google chose to abandon the support of wireless chargingς, δεδομένου ότι ήταν ένα ευρέως αποδεκτό feature in previous Nexus devices, such as LG's Nexus 4, which was released almost three years ago.
In a "Ask me anythingAt Reddit, several Google technicians responsible for building the devices answered redditors' questions, enlightening us on the subject.
The development team reports that it was the company's desire to keep it device όσο λεπτή ήταν δυνατό, ενώ ανέφεραν και τα οφέλη του USB Type-C που θα κάνει την ενσύρματη φόρτιση πιο ελκυστική από ό, τι ήταν στο παρελθόν.
You wonder, why not both? Obviously the extra thickness was the reason. One of the team members said:
"Charging is incredibly fast: from 1% to 100% in 97 minutes at 6P for example (in the first ~ 45 minutes charging is very fast).
Meanwhile, wireless charging adds z (thickness) and so, the ease of connection and fast charging as well as the optimization for finesse made us choose Type-C instead of wireless! ”
Now about the naming of the devices, to put it simply, “P” is from Premium (no it's not from the phablet) and the X is supposed to represent the “Nexus core” but also because it “sounds Cool!.”
