TL;DR 1.5 m cable, instead of 1 m. Color-matched and braided.

where I'm usually not using my phone

This is why my house is a tangled mess of cables. The only time I’m not actively on my phone is when I’m asleep. I’ve got a 10’ cable beside my bed for the time just prior to sleeping and just after waking up. 😬

Even when I’m working, I’m constantly picking up and checking news, or games, or messages, or whatever. I don’t have enough “inactive” time throughout the day to get anything from wireless charging.

Oh, hello, me! Nice to see me here!

I invested in some magnetic cables so I just put the little magnet end in the charge port (have lightning, c, and micro), and never take it out. Then I can use the same cables for everything. (My phone case blocks wireless charging, and the other things I frequently need to charge don’t have wireless at all, so this is a good system for me)
