Comment on Apple’s Vision Pro battery pack is hiding the final boss of Lightning cables

Nah, Apple will gladly take your money for a replacement.
And I have no idea of the specs, but I’d seen some truly power hungry laptops that charge with USB-C.

No… but you agree as well… what? A battery with an attached cable kit would cost vastly more than just a cable…
The pack charges with. USB-c this cable goes from headset to battery pack and could provide more power or even data than what usb-c does. So atleast it’s replaceable instead of being hardwired and needing to buy a whole new kit to replace a damaged connecto/cable.

USB-C cam provide up to 240W. It’s pretty ridiculous to think that his headset is even remotely close to that.
Also, celebrating that they aren’t even bigger dicks to customers than they already are? Really? You’re either a troll or borderline brainwashed.

USB PD* can, not usb c. It uses the same connector, but it’s an entirely different standard, but you wouldn’t understand this if you just think I’m a troll…
Yes, it’s called being a realist and understanding how the world works, it’s the opposite of being brainwashed, like you are for hating Apple for no other reason than to hate. They suck, I never said otherwise, but it’s funny how pointing out what should be painfully obvious makes me the troll… right………

I don’t “hate” Apple. I “hate” people dumb enough to defend a corporation that systematically milks them. When it comes to Apple itself, I simply don’t give them my money.
