Comment on USB-C teardown with CT scans: Thunderbolt and more
Clent@lemmy.world 11 months agoYou clearly did not read the article or the discussion.
Your blind hatred for Apple and its market doesn’t make you smart or well informed.
I read the article and I don’t get your point. The article is comparing a supercar to some junkyard beaters and trying to make that somehow a fair comparison.
End of the day, no the $129 price tag isn’t worth it. And you should know that as well, because that’s literally Apple’s business model (get them with the accessories). Yeah, it’s a nice cable that can do some cool shit, but it’s mostly feature bloat to explain away the ridiculous price.
Cool story. Show me this equivalent cable. I would guess it’s an easily $50+ – most people have no use for expensive cables.
Note that $50 < $129. By like a lot
So the cheapest version of this cable is actually $69. Didn’t feel the need to point it out until now because I saw no point in quibbling over the actual price point.

You can get same quality thunderbolt cables that are constructed 100% the same way for under 20 bucks

Clent clearly paid $129 for a cable and isn’t happy at me 😂

I have no need for that cable, but unlike you I’m not ignorant in realizing some do and why they do.

100% the same way? Doubt it. Of similar (or better) quality and function? Absolutely.
