    PSA: The USB-C Android Razer Kishi 2 controller works with iPhone 15

    Hello! Wanted to share my findings about this somewhere since I no longer post on Reddit. I have both the USB-C and Lightning versions of the Razer Kishi 2 controller, and have been curious if the USB-C version will work with the iPhone 15 despite not having any kind of MFi certification. I...

    Cable Charger compatibility (Apple included)

    So I saw Apple has new braided USB-C cables! But the 1m cable is just 60W instead of 100W... Now, hypothetically... What if I only want to carry around one charger and one cable for iPhone, iPad and Mac... What if I use the shorter 1m braided 60W cable with a 96W charger and my MacBook Pro...

    iPhone 15/Plus USB-C iPhones seem not to be compatible with some USB-C cables

    There were rumors before the release of iPhone 15 which say that Apple made the iPhone's USB-C port only accept MFI USB-C cables, while after the release, I didn't find any clarification about this rumor. So I opened the Apple Store app, where Apple sells third-party accessories including USB-C...

    Other iPhone 15 Pro Questions

    Hi! Hopefully someone can help answer a couple of questions I have about the iPhone 15 Pro: 1. If I buy a 10Gbps USB-C cable, is that going to make the iPhone 15 Pro setup much quicker since I will be restoring from an encrypted backup on my MacBook Pro? 2. If the answer to question 1 is yes...

    Other iPhone 15 Recommendations for Lightning to USB-C Adapters?

    It seems like it would be handy to re-purpose lightning cables for USB-C. Are there are any inexpensive and reliable adapters available?

    Now it’s no longer just the E.U. https://9to5mac.com/2023/08/09/saudi-arabia-usb-c-mandatory/ Now we just need some big fines going Apple’s way when they inevitably bastardize it with some new MFi none-sense. We’re probably going to get USB 2.0 speeds from all our current USB-C to USB-C and...

    27" LED Cinema Display to Mac Studio

    I'm upgrading from a 2013 Mac Pro to the new M2 Ultra Mac Studio and I have 2 27" LED Cinema Displays that I want to keep. In theory it should be as easy as connecting Mini DisplayPort to USB-C converters between the displays and the Mac Studio, but someone in another forum said that for...

    SSD performance in Docking Station much lower than expected

    I have a Sabrent DS-SC4B Docking Station connected to my Mac Studio via USB-C. In it there are 2 SSDs and 2 HDDs, which I previously used in my old 2010 Mac Pro. I expected the drives to perform better in the new enclosure since they are now connected via SATA 3, while before it was SATA 2 in...

    Is it worth buying Apple usb-c to lightning cables?

    The cable that came with my iPhone 11 is broken and I need a new one, not only for charging but also for backups to my Mac. Because of the backups I am interested in (data) reliability, otherwise I'd certainly buy a much cheaper third party cable. Is there a difference? Can third party cables...

    iPad New Apple Pencil 1 - solely with USB-C connector

    I recently bought an iPad (10th gen) and plan to buy an Apple Pencil. Does Apple plan to release a new version of the 1st gen Apple Pencil with solely a USB-C connector? I think having a lightning to USB-C adapter with the actual 1st gen Apple Pencil is very inelegant for the 10th gen iPad...
