I’m confused. Isn’t that what happens? Some portion goes to operating the phone and the rest to charging the battery? How does it work differently?
It doesn’t hook into the same charging system the phone uses for normal? Is that special for MagSafe? I don’t really understand how it’s different and can’t find anything online to read more about this.
Correct, just like with a power cable. The phone needs to have some charge for basic operational safety. e.g. what happens if the user suddenly unplugs. Or are you saying MagSafe can't charge a dead phone?
