How often do you plug your iphone into your mac? Honestly? Once I setup wifi-syncing I've maybe plugged in the usb cable to the computer to the iphone 3 times this year.
- vintageseltzer 10y agoDaily — for charging and tethering on the go.
- Spooky23 10y agoDaily. I tether for internet access and backup the device.
- aaronharnly 10y agoPretty often when I'm in a coffeeshop or using tether mode, in order to keep the phone battery charged from the much beefier laptop battery. That can be solved with an external battery, but using a short USB-Lightning cable has been easy and great. Now we'll just need to make sure we buy yet a different cable if we use a new-new laptop, which isn't that upsetting.
- mitchty 10y agoAlso amusing to me, this is the same thing people were talking about when Apple moved from the 30 pin connector to lightning. And Firewire to USB, and VGA to DVI to Displayport to HDMI, and... I'm just surprised that apple did the thing everyone wanted: switch to a standard. And now bam, nope this is horrible. Its time for usb c, sucks now but it'll pass. Be more worried about usb c incompatibility more than usb c.
- jacobush 10y agoThe coolest thing about USB-C is that it's the same in both ends...
