Awesome thanks. What about the smaller stuff though???? Any personal preference?
Both Anker and Ugreen does good GAN chargers, but Anker is bad at doing good cables (2 of 3 usbc to usbc cable failed during the first year of use). I only had 1 cable from Ugreen, and I don't use it often, so I can't tell if they are good yet.
Other than that I don't have much to say about small electronics, except maybe avoid Asus Laptops. Got 3 of them during my lifetime, all got pretty big problems, ranging from bad screens to dead touchpad and motherboards. They even forgot to connect the internal audio cable during the motherboard replacement, had to sent it back a second time 😅.
Haha yes!!! Same here with Asus laptops. I've gone through two and had issues with both. Mainly touchpad issues. But that's surprising to hear your stance on anker cables. Tbh I've found all usb c cables to be SUPER finicky thus far. Like sometimes just the slightest movement of the cable and it automatically disconnects. Heck one time my cat simple stepped on a cable and it caused a disconnection smh very annoying stuff
May be a bad usbc port on one end. My old Nokia 8.1 was known to have a bad usbc connector (mine was impacted), and I ended up switching smarphone because of that. Now I'm waiting for my new phone once again (Fairphone 5), at least this one is easier to repair 😅
Yea I've definitely had issues with my usb c ports on my laptop. The shitty thing is, my laptop ONLY has two ports, both being usb c. They've become loose over the years of wear and tear and I had a shop manage to replace one and he said the other is perfectly fine. I mean he had a tester and showed me the voltage or amperage and the ports work, but they are still so finicky. As mentioned, just the slightest little movement of a cable or flash drive and they disconnect and then reconnect. Super annoying. I can't wait to get a dock so I dont have to depend on just these two usb ports and all the annoying adapters and such
