"Apple's Official Warning: Why Putting Wet iPhones in Rice Is a Myth"

Apple has officially warned users against using the popular rice soaking hack to save wet iPhones, stating that it could potentially damage the device. Instead, the company recommends unplugging the wet iPhone or charging connector, tapping the phone gently to remove excess liquid, and leaving it in a dry area with airflow for at least 30 minutes before attempting to charge it again. If the issue persists, professional repair assistance may be necessary, but using rice as a drying method is strongly discouraged.

Hyundai Considers Tesla's Charging Connector and Network

Hyundai Motor is considering switching from the CCS1 to Tesla's NACS charging connector in North America, but only if it is in the best interest of its customers. The main issue is whether the NACS standard will support higher voltage than currently used by Tesla (around 400 V) to maximize the fast charging speed of Hyundai's latest all-electric cars. If issues are solved, then the company is willing to make the switch to the NACS. The decision behind the switch to NACS will be more political because it will likely include not only Hyundai Motor Group but the whole country, including its infrastructure and other manufacturers operating in South Korea.

Apple's Mixed Reality Headset to Feature Magnetic Connector for External Battery Pack.

Apple's mixed reality headset will have a new proprietary charging connector for the external battery, which is worn at the waist, and a USB-C interface for data transfer. The charging cable that goes from the battery pack into the headset has a round tip that inserts magnetically and must be rotated clockwise to lock it in. The external battery pack is about the size of an iPhone but thicker and can be charged via USB-C. It will power the headset for approximately two hours and can be swapped out for continuous usage while a second battery charges.
