I have used 4 smartphones, 2 tablets, 2 laptops and 3 cameras.
None of my gadgets have ever had damaged usb/mini usb/micro usb/lightning port.

      Anonymous, 03 Nov 2021slow and usb 2.x ahhhh....lightning 🤣Just because you have a Type-C port, doesn't mean it will be USB 3.0 or 3.1 or 4.0. There are plenty of Phones with Type-C ports that are just USB2.0.
      Lightning can be upgraded too to use USB 4.0 protocol if Apple Engineers get their lazy asses off of the benches and get to it.

            Obviously a very skilled person but nonsense really. Just doing this to show off. This is not something that can be mass marketed. It's just oh look at me and look at what I can do. Just showing off. Actually pointless and not really innovative

              I wonder which port is more rigid? which port will get damaged easily? Lightning port on phone or Type-C port on Phone?

                Anonymous, 03 Nov 2021You have to appreciate the skill of this student ! :) Yes I'm surprised noone has commented on that - the level of skill of this robotic student is amazing. He's so cool and much smarter than anyone commenting on GSM arena.

                  I guess I'm off to soldering Lightining to my ancient Galaxy S2 that I still have laying around and auctioning it for 4000€ under "First and only Galaxy S2 ever with Lightning port".

                      They would not make a version just for Europe.

                        There are probably a few places in shenzhen within huaqiangbei area that offers this modification service, might cost rmb 1000 to 1500, not exactly that difficult to find places that do this.

                          EU recently proposed a law to require all smartphones to come with USB Type-C, so if passed, we will see genuine iPhones come with USB Type-C from next year... At least in Europe.

                            Andreidinutu, 03 Nov 2021Nah, I prefer lightningWell if you live in Europe, lightning won't be am option soon ;)
