Phone Charging Cables

[Mad Man]

I must have spent over £100 quid on these things...its as if they're not built to last by design!

jack plugs seem to be better

Am I naive or just buying expensive shite?

Apple 1s are awful quality

Don’t be so heavy handed with them ? Sure some are not great but most seem to last.

Over what period of time ?

 

[bobster999]

I've never bought a one. One ends already in a charger and just have to put the other end in a phone

Surely the question is, why are they not universal?

We know the answer to that of course...

The apple cables are absolutely shite like and they know it, it’s us daft buggers that have to keep forking out for them

WTF??

What's the answer?

To make more money, I presume.

All my Apple ones are still perfect.

Think the bigger question here is how people are suing them.

Suing them? Am not taking it that far

 

[cornish mackem]

Buy the ones from b+m and keep the receipt
I use the Goldman’s ones and if they do stop working in 12 months then they change them

Syncwire are decent and robust

I know the EU are pushing for this, but will Apple go along with it in non EU countries if they're forced to for EU sales?

Think most new android phones are usb-c anyway.

well, seems to be over the last 5 years i guess, cant remember having such problems with my nokia 3210

wouldnt you think that buying a top end phone comes with a top end charger

We’re out

I know, what's your point?

 

[Ciro_DiMarzio]

Apple cables are shite.

 

[PTR]

Almost always buy Anker cables if they have the one I need for the job.
Well made, don't break and if you have any bother, they replace them immediately.

Example - I had a USB-C charging cable that didn't work well when I had a phone case on. They sent me a newer version that was slightly longer and worked perfect.

Same, baffles me the state of some peoples cables!
