Seriously I never ever ever found this to be a problem when I was using one. It charges from zero to usable in as long as it takes to type “ha ha this mouse charging port is on the bottom” on the internet, and a full charge lasts a long time.
The bad keyboards and no hardware escape key are real problems. Magsafe was a real loss (although of course they lost MagSafe to standardize on a third party standard with usb-c).
- sneak 7y agoThe rumor is that USB-C was an Apple invention, quietly pushed into the USB-IF so that it wouldn't have the Apple stink on it, and so that it would become a global hardware standard in the way an "Apple Thing" never could: power and high speed data, in a convenient and reversible plug. Now they're on Chromebooks, WinTel machines, and the Raspberry Pi. If the rumor is true, it was a really smooth move by Apple. It would be an extremely Apple-esque thing to hack an industry-wide movement just so that your laptop could be charged by any power brick made by any manufacturer at any time (even if your competitors get this functionality too).
- izacus 7y ago"The rumor" sounds like rather common history rewriting to from Apple fans. Do you have any sources for that rumor?
- dannyw 7y agoThe convergence of USB-C and Thunderbolt 3 (an Apple standard) isn’t an accident, but I doubt Apple covertly pushed it behind the scenes.
