@mcc any of the USB C cables I have charge my Samsung A50, including the power supply for my HP laptop. My only problem is my tablet is USB Mini A so I have to go find that cable. It's not enough of a reason to upgrade the tablet, but my next tablet will be USB C.
@mcc
They told me USB C was reversible. They didn't promise it would work if I reversed it.
I have a USB C-to-C cable I sometimes use for charging my phone. I can only be sure it'll charge faster than my phone uses the power it gets if I have a particular end of the cable plugged into the charger, and the phone end is a particular way around.
a few expensive ones, which doesn't include the Apple cables, will charge my phone, can be easily become dislodged—50%of the time just touching the phone is enough—and break contact
2 cables click in and charging works 100% of the time and the cable needs slight pressure to release
I have a ruggedized Ulefone, one of the cables came with my phone and the other came with a high-end STB
@mcc usb old. You don’t fit. You don’t fit. Go get yourself yet another dongle… or rebuy all you old devices and wonder if there with be a usb-d standard. Wonder “universal” really meant there being as many standards as there are stars in the firmament 😂
@mcc you were the chosen one! It was said you would destroy profits, not increase them! You were to bring balance to the ports, not leave us in darkness!
@mcc The exception that keeps biting me is that USB (OLD) that is type B, if it's blue inside it can't plug in to a socket that isn't blue inside. They are physically incompatible.
@horqua@mcc more that the same connector can carry a range of electrical and data capabilities. so you pull the cable from the drawer and don’t know how fast it will charge or transfer data until you try it out.
