Most flash drives and wired mice/keyboards are still USB-A. And people have huge piles of charging cables that are USB-A to micro/mini USB or USB-C.

- systemtest 10mo agoI assume you are talking about legacy devices? I haven't purchased a keyboard in the past ten years with USB-A. Everything is USB-C for charging/data and Bluetooth.
- distances 10mo agoI think new devices are primarily USB-A too? All my keyboards and mice are A, also the one I bought this year: https://perixx.com/products/periboard-535 https://perixx.com/products/periboard-535
- systemtest 10mo agoWow. A device in 2025 with a non-detachable USB-A cable? That sounds like a horrible design decision from both a repairability and future-proofing standpoint. My keyboard has a USB-C port on the side so you can plug in whatever cable you want, A or C, long, short, curled, braided. It even connects to my phone without dongles.
- distances 10mo agoYeah I agree a detachable cable would've been better. The keyboard itself is very good though, I'm quite happy with it!
