Not so sure about that, they already added USB-C to many devices, and there are still plenty of use cases where wireless charging is tricky.

I really need a cable to charge my phone while driving, for example.

Additionally, charging wirelessly is much slower, sometimes you just need to be able to charge quickly.

Am I to understand you're having issues with wireless charging while driving?

I was having high hopes for this for riding my motorbike because plugging everything in and routing cables is quite the pain...
