  Yes, the lightning to 3.5mm adaptor. Just look at it.

    I wouldn't say that it's designed to fail - but it's clearly not designed to last. It does seem like, with Ive's departure, that Apple may start to make their accessories (and cables, hopefully) as long-lasting as their products.

      Apple badly needs a post-Ive strain relief philosophy.

        And people need to stop thinking that Ive was responsible for every design decision. They have a hardware engineering team who are far more culpable.

          Have you spent any time working at Apple? Because that's not even remotely how things work. Designers are minor deities at Apple; engineering is a remote 2nd.

        I just can't see them making those ugly ribbed strain reliefs that everyone else uses.
