I still haven't found a good reason to ever use wireless charging, feels like a gimmick to me Wire is just more convenient.
In order to charge my phone wirelessly, I have to take it out of the case. Which is a bigger pain than just plugging a wire into it.
I actually use wireless charging at night. They way I see it is in cutting down on the wear on my charging port. Plus, the slightly slower charge speeds are probably better for my battery long term
Cutting wear of is fair point. Fast charging can be disabled if wanted with wired charging so that is not issue. Because of wireless charging, the backlid has to be glass, which is annoying cause it breaks more easily.
The back lid doesn’t have to be glass, my iPhone 14 pro has a metal back and wireless charging works fine
Might be worse for the battery because of increased heat but idk
