This is actually seems like a useful product. My most heavily used USB-C cable is pretty beat up.
USB 2.0 speeds are not optimal, but this is understandable considering this seems to be squarely aimed at smartphones.
It’s increasingly difficult to get a smart phone to transfer data over USB, they’re bound and determined to do it over wireless, one way or another.
What do you mean? USB 2.0 speeds are annoying, for example if you’re transferring multiple high-bitrate 1080/2K videos to watch on your phone, but the concept works.
I mean it is difficult to persuade a smart phone to transfer data over USB at all. It doesn’t want to offer the option to you.
People don’t really do it anymore because “files” have largely been abstracted away or they are on cloud storage, but at least on Android I’ve never had an issue with file transfer. Can’t speak for iOS.
The issue I’ve had with Android was, for awhile at least, it stopped allowing you to mount the phone’s storage as a file system on a PC using normal USB mass storage and wanted to specifically use, what? SMP or something? Something about old standards for digital cameras (similar to the reason why the camera roll on all phones is stored in a folder called DCIM) that continues to pollute smart phones.
Yeah, that’s the default that I get (and use). It is tied to old digital cameras.
Agreed, it is pretty annoying. You can still use it for file transfer though. And I am sure you can get around it (I’ve just never bothered to look into it).
not 360⁰ … it is clearly 180⁰ in pictureEdit :
1st axis : 360⁰
2nd axis : 180⁰
gosh 🤦♀️🤦540°
