One of the most common complaints about iPhones isn’t their cost or the features they lack—it’s that the cables they come with break and constantly need to be replaced. Also that they always seem to die at inopportune times.

To that end, the most important thing Apple unveiled at its grand event on Tuesday (Sept. 12) was not the iPhone X, the updated Apple Watch, or any other specific gadget. It was that all of the company’s newest lines of phones—the iPhone 8, 8 Plus, and X—will all support wireless charging.
