- ryanianian 8y agoIt "can charge" most things but maybe not at full-speed. E.g. only high-quality USB-C cables can charge at a full 85 watts. This is especially annoying with laptops where if you're doing CPU-intensive things you may end up with a dead battery at the end of the day even if you've been plugged in the whole time. So USB-C is nice if all you're doing is charging low-wattage devices. But whenever you're doing anything else, all bets are off as to whether your particular (device-a, cable, device-b) combination will work as you'd expect or not.
- gambiting 8y agoIt's a shame that the Nintendo Switch is on this list, because it's the shittiest of the devices to ever have a USB-C port. It's a pure lottery if it will charge with a given charger/cable - Nintendo should have never been allowed to receive USB-C certification for the lousy implementation that they have.
