On the surface this is probably a good thing but I wonder how we are going to keep features like waterproofing when it’s easy for consumers to pry open the device. I kinda like that I can lark around with my phone near a pool on holiday without the fear of bricking my device.
This leaves me with similar feelings to the incoming usb-c requirement for iPhone too. I love lightning. Its only weakness is where the head meets the cable but there’s plenty of aftermarket cables with strength in this area. USB-C heads are prone to damage and breaking.
- thathndude 3y agoI love the idea of USB-C everything, but the USB-C port seems much more prone to breakage. I have a graveyard of Nintendo Switch devices with bad USB-C ports. First they start as fickle about charging, then progress, and then eventually stop charging. If I’m lucky, I’ll have the foresight to wipe them before they completely die.
