Apple has already pulled devices to comply with the Common Charger Directive.

    It might have more to do with build quality. I’ve never had an issue.

      That’s exactly what I’m saying. I’m not use to having this variability in build quality of USB ports, or Lightning ports.

      I’m use to it either always being shit (micro-usb) or almost always fine unless an incident damages the port. USB-A is rock solid, relatively speaking.

        No one uses Micro USB so that’s not really reliant. As far as lightning goes it is just as variable as usb-c.

        Maybe I am reading into it but it sounds like you just are one of those people who thinks “Apple good everything else sucks”

          Did I get micro wrong? I mean the one the PS4 controllers had. I’m just comparing it to past standards. Why can’t I compare the durability? That’s what this thread of comments on this post is about.

          Lots of companies make quality usb-c ports. I just happen to know of two surprising examples where the quality was lacking. I wouldn’t expect Valve and Meta to have poorly made ports. I’d expect cheap Chinese designed/produced devices to have them.

          Apple was just an easy example of quality well built ports.
