apple just produced a software program update for their magsafe battery pack yes software application for a battery as well as it is intended to deal with one of the biggest concerns that i had with this device so today we'' re mosting likely to speak about the outcomes with this update and how much faster it charges going from 5 watts up to 7.5 watts now and also keeping that do you lose any kind of battery capability due to added thermal loss i simply completed screening and retesting all of this as well as if it is now worth it coming in at 89 as opposed to 100 when it introduced as opposed to getting one of these support uh magsafe packs and rather much my last ideas as well as final thoughts after having this point for nine months currently allow'' s proceed as well as jump right in now the initial point i desire to tell you guys is exactly how to figure out if yours is updated as well as if it'' s not exactly how do you upgrade it the most convenient way is by connecting it to your apple iphone and after that going into your setups app proceed as well as hit basic and also after that around and also scroll right down where you will certainly see the maxi battery pack click right into it and also you will certainly see the firmware variation currently the current one is two point seven point b factor oh that is the one that enables the seven and a half watt charging currently if your own does not say that there are a couple of means to update it currently uh the most convenient method is simply to proceed using it yet then in that instance apple claims that it could take up to a week for it to automatically upgrade by itself via the magsafe link now the much faster method is to take it off get hold of a usbc to lightning cable as well as link it to your mac which has the most recent software mounted or even to an ipad that has a usb type-c port you connect that in and wait about 15 minutes and also in that period it need to instantly link upgrade and after that you simply unhook it and after that link back on your phone to validate it or you can go into the about section enter into your tools pick usb as well as then it will reveal up right there with the firmware and also keeping that out of the method let'' s enter into the results currently this they came out it was a significant dissatisfaction that although it'' s called magsafe it just offered you 5 watts of charging compared to 15 which magsafe is developed in the meantime of course that'' s as a result of the reduced battery capacity practically it'' s extremely slow however as a result of apple'' s greater voltage it actually doubles but it'' s still nowhere near one of these support battery packs as well as i really hope that the greater effectiveness would certainly help in terms of speed or capacity however no it truly didn'' t now with this update after the first 15 minutes we got to 12 on our apple iphone 13 instead of 8 that is 50 faster billing right there so rather outstanding results right at the start currently after a half hour we'' re at 25 rather than 17. So we'' re still getting some respectable scaling and we'' re not seeing any kind of stagnations from greater heat you understand with the quicker billing currently after 45 minutes we reached 37 with the upgrade contrasted to 24 before and after a hr iphone hit virtually half at 49 contrasted to 32 meaning that we'' re obtaining ideal scaling going from 5 watts to seven as well as a half in that we are not really getting any worse effectiveness like we see with some third-party max conserve chargers that additionally go for 7.5 watts so that is extremely outstanding now before i offer you people the long-term outcomes and the length of time it lasted let me aim out that if you were using a wired charger with usb type-c to lightning after half an hour of billing you would certainly go to 56 compared to the new 25 with the upgrade or 17 with the old one so that is a big space greater than two times as fast as you know for billing as well as then after a hr you can be at 84 rather than 49 or 32 that simply reveals you how much additional efficiency and also speed you have billing with the cord and you don'' t have to maintain it on the back now keeping that let'' s go on as well as move on after a hr and also 15 minutes we struck 57 contrasted to 40.
So now we'' re in fact seeing some sluggish downs due to the fact that we only obtained 8 percentage factors because 15 mins compared to prior to we were acquiring 12 and afterwards soon after this the battery finished up passing away providing us a total ability of 60 charge on an apple iphone 13 taking a hr and 20 minutes now previously it would really take us an hour and also 45 mins to get to 57 charge where now it took us a hr as well as 15. so this point actually billed up the phone had a half hour faster than in the past and also with that instead of losing capability with a quicker rates that we normally would see the efficiency likewise actually boosted since we hit 60 fee rather than 57 to make sure that is really extremely remarkable that suggests that apple fine-tuned you recognize the charging system i'' m not exactly sure what else they transformed yet not only do we obtain faster charging speeds we additionally get greater capacity so that is superb so with these enhancements is apple'' s magsafe battery pack lastly worth buying and also the reality that you can acquire one for 89 dollars now or ought to you grab a support and also exactly how has my experience been well over the last 9 months we have actually made use of apple'' s battery pack although i have a great deal of others i have the previous support variation the black one i have this newer one that has some added features i have a few other variations as well as well as in general it has been so so i believe my favorite aspect of it is simply the reality that it is extremely nice as well as slim and also when i'' m billing a battery as well as i'' m using a pack i usually want to toss in my pocket without having any kind of added cords dangle around so it does work quite well for that now there have been numerous times where i was out and i had it connected as well as my battery wasn'' t charging just because it was also warm either i ' m really using it or it ' s simply hot outside like when we went boating and also it simply all out wasn'' t charging that has not transformed and also that is a disappointment and that is where an anchor will keep charging when you'' re pc gaming or doing another thing currently the other good feature of it and i assume actually the largest marketing point is to make use of as a real charger itself since when you plug a cord right into it and you'' re using it to travel through billing to your phone it will in fact result regarding 12 watts so as opposed to purchasing a puck for 40 bucks for you can acquire among these for 90 use it at your desk you recognize day-to-day to charge up your phone in the evening as well as then when you think you may require it you can simply order it unplug and also take it with your phone to ensure that is the good thing currently the other thing that'' s actually great about it is that it also bills up very quickly it takes regarding a hr and 15 minutes to charge contrasted to 3 hours and also 15 minutes for an or either the black version that you can obtain for about 42 bucks or this brand-new one so those are the advantages yet that'' s virtually where it quits there'' s been lots of times where i understand that i want more ability as an example we'' re going camping and i will take something like a support due to the fact that it'' ll offer me near to a full fee or the various other greatest disadvantage is the reality that it does not send out power out of that lightning port so you simply are stuck with wireless billing which takes longer now it'' s you know much faster yet likewise it uses up more energy whereas with one of these supports i can quickly plug in a cable television plug in my phone as well as get that much faster charging with less power loss with that said i also reenergize my apple watch if i bring along my little minimalistic battery charger so these things are a great deal extra versatile currently this most recent one that i gotten for 60 dollars a few months ago it'' s currently marketing for uh 70.
So they raised the price as well as it'' s still the very same rate and whatever else like prior to yet it has this wonderful little uh flippable stand point that is truly practical if you desire to bill as well as enjoy a video and it'' s likewise slimmer also so is it worth the extra price contrasted to the black one i put on'' t recognize it ' s as much as you yet this now gives me type of the slimness of'apple ' s version however you likewise have a whole lot even more adaptability so personally i think i would certainly not be buying apples out rather obtain one of these brand-new supports it just does a really good work for what you would certainly utilize one of these for you men let me understand down below if this is enough of an update to make you desire to get one of these or use it or if you just choose something else click that circle above to subscribe check out one of those fantastic video clips right over there this has been max as well as i'' ll see you in the following video [Music]
