Literally every single TV or projector I've ever given a presentation on
Ethernet
(micro-)SD card
Keyboard
Mouse
Displays
Flashing microcontrollers (technically could be done over BT but it is a pain in the ass)
Gamepad
I've bought dongles/docking stations for all of these devices but it is a huge hassle when traveling, which is a use case a laptop should be able to excel at. Adding just a single USB-A port and HDMI would be a complete gamechanger for me. Apple wouldn't be able to sell as many of their $70 dongles though.
- iaml 7y agoYou can use xb1 controller wirelessly with mbp, new ones connect via bluetooth. As a bonus you could also use it with iphones, ipads and even tvs.
- Rebelgecko 7y agoUnfortunately for the project I'm using it for, any RF stuff is a nonstarter. It needs to be wired.
- hinkley 7y agoLogitech mice work better with the receiver than over bluetooth. I'm making due with one dongle right now because I have a Thunderbolt adapter and I've daisy chained all my peripherals off of my old Cinema display. But it's started glitching out with USB devices.
- mantap 7y agoI've given up on wireless mice and have gone back to wired. It feels futuristic! Just plug it in and it works immediately! No pairing, no charging, no dongles, and it's lighter.
