QA would normally test hundreds of devices with different settings for each test depending on the test.
Testing a single or a low number of samples is a good way to get a bad or insignificant result.1
- saagarjha 8y agoApple at the very minimum tests many thousands of devices before shipping hardware.
- zaarn 8y agoYes and it makes me curious how they missed such obvious bugs despite thousands of tests.
- pwinnski 8y agoThere are many tens of thousands of third-party and no-name chargers, and Apple only tested hundreds, or maybe thousands. The vast majority of chargers, including all chargers for which Apple is responsible, work fine.
- zaarn 8y agoActually no, Louis Rossman has uploaded a video where an Apple-branded charger observes this behaviour. So no, this doesn't work with a vast majority of chargers, including the ones Apple is responsible for.
