I have a couple of USB A cables that work in either orientation - seems like a design that should have been adopted more widely, though they seem a bit easier to damage if you step on them.
- jacquesm 3y agoInteresting, that sounds like a neat idea, pity that it didn't see more distribution.
- actionfromafar 3y agoThose have mechanical issues, right? Aren't those a bit similar to iPhone ligthning cables, i.e. it they have no metal "sleeve"?
- musicale 3y agoThey work fine and still have a metal sleeve, but as I noted they are slightly flimsier because of their design which looks like [|] with a thin bit in the middle. You can search for "reversible USB A cable" - there are lots of them available for sale. I assume the "USB Trident" logo is imprinted on both sides since you can plug it in either way. ;-)
