I've never tried hand soldering a USB-C SMT connector, expecting it to be somewhat harder than Micro USB, is it reasonably doable with hot air?

I've never tried hand soldering a USB-C SMT connector, expecting it to be somewhat harder than Micro USB, is it reasonably doable with hot air?
- snakeye 6y agoOh, in fact it's much simpler than MicroUSB. There is special type of USB Type C used for charging - https://en.ovcharov.me/uploads/2020/04/06/20200404_092055.jpg https://en.ovcharov.me/uploads/2020/04/06/20200404_092055.jp... It has only six huge pads and can be soldered either with hot air or normal soldering iron as a charm.
