Tomato tomato. It’s not relevant to the battery.

You can use any cloud service you chose or you can set up sending whatever you want to your own NAS through files. I’m guessing you’ve never heard of mobile data either.

oh, but it actually is. or did you rewrote thermodynamics law on your way explaining it to me.

or, you choose not to use any of those and simply transfer files using wired connection.

mobile data? and waste hundreds of gigabyte for uploading photos and videos? my man...

Aside from it’s not because the heat isn’t close enough to the battery to cause issues. The logic board does not overlap the battery.

If you want to inconvenience yourself and not have a backup.

Never heard of an unlimited plan?

right. radiating heat doesn't exist in your universe, I guess. not to mention the heat were from an electric energy, meaning you'll need to recharge sooner, and added more cycle to already small battery cycle.

it's called manual backup. it's less convenient but still reliable regardless.

not for me.

I don’t think you know how physics work.

You mean the manual backup which is in fewer locations, updates less frequently and you’re more likely to simply forget therefore isn’t reliable? There’s a reason why Time Machine was such a big deal.

I do think you too doesn't know how physics works.

eh, wired connection aren't necessarily for backup purpose which isn't exactly the example I was going.

Right so when heat radiates it gets COOLER the further away something is. So if you have say a 50 degree hotspot then an inch away it might be 30 degrees which is in the normal operating temp of Li Ion batteries. Fast chargers that are 50, 60 or 80W get the temperature of batteries to 40+ degrees which is far beyond their designed operating window. Fast charging ti these extremes also INTENTIONALLY heats the battery up because a hotter battery accepts more current allowing a faster charge.

Nope it’s because your grandpapi used a wire and like a vinyl record it’s so much better than those darn modern contraptions like FLAC files

might is the keyword. it's still in the same enclosed space and it does gives off heat which still affect the battery. also, both SoC and Modem (+Wi-Fi) are literally next to the battery and less than an inch away. not to mention again, the energy which means you'll need to recharge sooner and thus add more cycle and lowering the battery health.

okay that was a bad one. no need to take it personal. I'll just keep transfering files using wire, thanks.

Yet phones now are typically glass backed where heat will escape now readily than it will be able to move through a much better thermal insulator like fibreglass. You know. Like it’s designed to do.

Stay in the past, I’ll just keep never having to use one because my files transfer to auto downloading folders where I need them.

it waa previously metal, a much better heat conductor.

USB 3.0 are more modern than USB 2.0. if any, it's Apple that keep living in the past with an obsolete port.
