  Type B or Micro USB is the worst cable ever created. Change my mind.

    I literally won’t buy a product that uses micro USB. It’s the only.standard cable I have used where I’ve had both cables and the connector on the device fail.

      Just on a regularly occurring basis. They were always the failure point in my devices.

      Absolutely garbage durability.

      Mini USB is much less popular

        Doesn’t break as often as Micro USB so I hate it slightly less. :D

    B is fine, just a bit big. Agree on micro though.

      B is for big. My favorite plugs are C13 and Type B. Don’t know why.

    Alternatives are worse

      How is USB-C worse than either of them

        Lots of pins, hard to solder, requires higher precision in PCB manufacturing
