I'm ready for Google pixel to come out with a phone with user accessible batteries. I feel like I should be done trying to "stan" for the idea that uncomfortable crappy qi2 magsafe batteries can be the successor to the adage of "I'll bring a few filled up spare phone batteries with me today and then at 5pm when the battery is empty I'll pull out the empty battery and put in a 100% full battery in 10 seconds.". I'm ready to do that again. I don't want to rely on wall charging. The issue was solved 15 years ago. We need mainstream phones to do user accessible batteries again.

48A (48 amps for home charging) should be normalized. It is a more malleable lifestyle and quality of life improvement to always add 90 miles in 2 hours than 32A or less where it is more of always an overnight thing. I would say that 80A (80 amps for home charging), so that a user can always add 150 miles in 2 hours at home. But for that, I hope more EVs start either shipping with, or at least give an option to buyers to include either 60A or 80A charging at home.
a qi2 case that also has 5 pogo pins in the center of qi2 that do direct energy 60 watts with a wire inside the case that takes the energy and sends it directly up into the phones usbc port. Case and corresponding magnetic battery have speck click lock and corresponding pins
qi2 case with pogo pin circle in center of magnetic array and ribbon wire that sends power from pogo pin directly up into USBC port of the phone - also have indentation like speck click lock to secure qi2 batteries even better
how about a case with a pogo pin / pins / small ring, in the center of its qi2 magnet array, with a power wire that goes directly from the pogo pin down to the bottom of the case, and then up into a case-built-in USBC port into the phone? this way, a potential "point of failure" would be on the relatively easy to replace case itself, instead of the expensive phone.
failure of the moto mods was that magsafe qi2 didn't exist back then. now qi2 is a standard. third parties are even taking qi2 a step further by enhancing its functionality and features. look at speck click lock - it locks things into place with a simple indentation. by integrating pogo pins and an indent, it could help to more easily legitimize a better hybrid pogo pin/ qi2 phone case where a magsafe battery that "goes with" it and has something like speck click lock to really secure it in place

I believe the failure of the moto Z line was that magsafe qi2 didn't exist back then in the late 2010s, compared to now when magsafe / qi2 is more of a standard. by integrating something nonstandard (pogo pin(s)) into an established standard (magsafe / qi2), it could help to more easily "legitimize" the idea of a hybrid pogo pin / qi2 kit where a magsafe battery that "goes with" this new “potential standard” (having pogo pins or some sort of direct contacts energy flow setup built into both a case and a corresponding set of accessories like a battery pack. There was a time when we could carry spare batteries with us in the early to mid 2010s, and so, we could be away from a wall all day, and then in the afternoon, and again in the evening, we could simply hotswap a full battery to replace the empty battery. Magsafe is kind of “supposed” to be the successor to doing this but i think a better solution would be something *with* a pogo pin just like how the batteries we hotswapped had direct contact energy pins.
magsafe qi2 case with pogo pin in center of magnetic array and ribbon wire that sends power from pogo pin directly up into USBC port of the phone
draft - pixel - 60 watt usb + 40 watt magnetic pogo pin - can we get 60 watt usbc charging and 40 watt magnetic pogo pin charging? a single pogo pin smack dab in the center of the qi2 circle could enable 40 watt magnetic battery backs that are backward compatible with qi2 25 watt, but a dedicated pogo pin in the center could do 40 watts with zero heat issues
And / or -
