what brain dead nigger retard thought this mechanical design was a good idea? it's almost as if it was designed for the express purpose of wearing out prematurely or getting packed full of lint and dust and other crap.
>>109888023Just solder new connector there if it break. The /g/ approach. Oh wait, chatgpt can't do that
>>109888057i'm somewhat competent at soldering but i don't know if i trust my skills enough to try it on my phone.
>>109888023>Rated for approximately 10,000 uses.
>>109888023>USB-C receptacle supports up to 10,000 mating cycles, which means if the connector is mated three times per day, the lifetime is over nine years.
>>109888107maybe under laboratory conditions. my 4 year old phone has a loose usb-c port. i charge it once a day on average with a high quality ANKER™ cable. let's be generous and say i charge it twice a day, and that's still only about 3k insertions.
charging over usb was a mistake
>>109888125your phone manufacturer used shit parts
>>109888140it's a pixel 7 so that might be the case.
>>109888125>>109888154Pixel 7? At least it should have wireless charging?
Never had an issue with any usb type c ports, only cables dying in the usual way USB cables die due to wear at the base of the connector.
>>109888023>lintnever happened to me>loosenever happened to me>>109888125>high quality>ankerrorumao
>>109888023yeah i rember my nokia 7 plus connector dying in just a few months which was a rather widespread issue at the time
>>109888161i don't use nigger technology.
The widespread adoption of usb-c is one of the only few good (morally speaking) things that have happened to tech in the past 10 years.
>>109888023Anyone who complains about USB Type C has never used Micro USB. You dont understand how good you actually have it
>>109888023design by committee shit always ends up like thatthe apple lightning cable design made way more sense but le EU regulations had to get rid of it i guess
>inb4 bickering about the EUIt was up to the manufacturers to decide on a universal port, not the EU. So entire industries agreed that out of all the connectors available today, USB-C was the best fit for a universal one.>>109888136>5VOh, so just like on USB? And if you're telling me you want things to go back to how they were, let me just remind you that the "good old ways" brought upon the necessity of this monstrosity. Now you have one, maybe two cables to charge everything you own.
>>109888023digitale elektronik sind kurzlebige wegwerfprodukte.
>>109888416And the manufacturers are incentivised to create a shit standard that lowers the lifespan of product and customer satisfaction.The market is not about making the customer happy. It's about stripping as many resources from people and the environment and controlling of others through legal and physical means.
>tfw usb-a ports on my laptop wore out and if something bumps them it will cause the laptop to shut down to protect against shorts>tfw usb-c ports still work greatSounds like a you problem anon
>>109888023>the express purpose of wearing out prematurely or getting packed full of lint and dust and other crap.same can be said about any male/female connector.. which is most of them
>>109888057It's harder than the old usb. Way more smaller connectors.
>>109889761Okay, so don't break it.
>>109888607They weren't doing that before usb c?
>>109889770>there's a problem>ok just don't have a problemwhen is the next mensa meet up, bro?
>>109889782If you don't swing it around by the charger while watching your 'Toks it'll be fine, I promise, just put the phone down for half an hour sometimes.
>>109889824What if my gangly twink onahole on hrt pulls on the cable when he's stumbling agape to the toilet after a railing session? Not everyone lives alone, dude. Shit happens.
>>109888023Should have just copied this
>>109889864>8 vs 12 pins
>>1098899618 vs 24, actually, Lightning only had mirrored pins while USB-C can utilize all 24 pins, which is how you can have PCIe connectivity over it via Thunderbolt. The reversibility on a standard 2.0/3.0 connection is just an extra.
>>109888023yeah, using it for a power connector on a laptop is stupid, already had one fail on a Lenovo after 2 years, luckily the Lenovo had a backup barrel connector for power, but new laptops even get rid of that. USB connector design is a history of retardation. USB3 connectors on USB drives would fail all the time, I have had to disgorge like 10 USB drives and put them in new SATA enclosures because the USB3 connector is so delicate and retarded. It really makes you wonder do these engineers not ever think about the real world.
>>109888172>>ankerAnker stuff is high quality in my experience, quality is relative, there is so much chinkshit out there, I always buy Anker cables and chargers
>>109888057Type C is impossible to replace if you don't have a hot air station unlike previous iterations. Also a lot of them vary from different devices.
>>109889864exposed contacts are definition of retarded, I lost count of how many of these I've thrown away from corroded and melted contacts, women are mystified when they stop working
>>109888119Just like my sister
>>109890296Why don't you have a hot air station? They're like $200. Are you poor or retarded?
>>109890269>do these engineers not ever think about the real world.>usb 3.2 gen 2 x2 or whatever the fuck>renaming the older one 3.2 gen1yeah they don't
>>109888136this piece of shit breaks so easy
I hate USB C it always stops working for me due to lint and dust getting stuck. I try pressured air duster thing (I'm not native english speaker, dunno the proper english word) and rubbing inside with a plastic tooth pick. Still it won't get out. Never had this issue with Micro USB also the small teeth on the Micro USB made sure it held on better. Even the crappiest micro USB was decent and acceptable, but almost all USB type C that aren't the top quality shit have issues with the fucking cable wiggling out and getting loose and even the high quality ones get fucking lint and shit stuck. I hate the future and I hate that they shut down the local 2G tower and forced me to buy a new cancer spyware fed glowing phone. I hope every USB C proponent that caused it to be the new standard dies bleeding out in a room with sandpaper floor on a band that always moves at walking pace and has lemon juice coming out of sprinklers on the roof.
