That is fantastic. Seriously, USB is annoying that way. But now when I take a trip for a couple days, which my work has me doing regularly, and if I have an Iphone 5, I have to be sure to bring my adaptor kit, or pay a $30 adaptor tax. With micro usb, I pay a $1 forgetfulness tax, if that, because almost everywhere has a spare usb charger or cable lying around.
I don't want to pay that much to not have to turn the cable over once.
- danielweber 14y agoIn nearly every single situation, the right orientation for a USB cable is with the USB symbol on top. There are exceptions, but this one rule let me get it right for all but 1 device I own.
- andrewaylett 14y agoUnfortunately (and speaking as one who has never knowingly given Apple any money) not all USB devices get this right: I've got a card reader (made by Kingston) with the USB logo on the wrong side of the plug. It's really anoying.
- brunnsbe 14y agoYes, but it's still the connector most people put in correctly on the third try. ;-)
- notimetorelax 14y agoI noticed that micro USB is better in this respect.
- jl6 14y agoDoesn't help in the dark, which happens to me every night as I put it onto charge.
