Bad for the charging port. You know, that hole with 24 extremely tiny wires and pins? Once that's damaged, you have a brick, not a phone.
This is why I believe in UK plug supremacy. Extreme support, extreme safety. Be extreme today. Convert to the UK plug
That's make the phone pretty bulky
They're talking about the USB port. Which might have been inferred from "24 pins".
I think they were taking about the lightning port on the iPhone.
You may hide now before the europlug F squad I called gets here.
Schuko is way nicer and isn't a landmine when left on the floor.
Or you open it up and replace the daughterboard holding the port. Worked fine when I did it for a friend.
Is that actually how you spell, what I thought was, “dotter board”?
Yeah, motherboard, daughterboard.
Oh so no sonboard or fatherboard?
What kinda of world do we live in?….. 😔
Considering you plug the daughterboard into the motherboard quite often, sonboard might be the more appropriate term, because of the male plug type. But maybe people didn't quite want to raise the spectre of motherfuckers.
Not to mention the implied incest lmao
Phones are pretty light as long as you set it in there gently and didn't do it often it wouldn't hurt anything.
You can't assert that. Not to a certainty.
You don't have wireless charging as a backup?
I don't think I have seen many phones with that feature.
You... haven't seen many phones that can charge wirelessly? In 2024??
the phones with that feature are way to expensive
A backup, sure. But I use Android Auto every day. Also, I wouldn't be able to charge it from my power bank or use headphones if the USB-C port was damaged.
