Out of curiosity, will that atrocious "this device may not be supported" box FINALLY be dead? I haven't used an Apple device for a long time, but that was one of my biggest pet peeve.

Hard to say. A LOT of USB-C cables don't meet spec and are either hot garbage or a risk waiting to happen, even if it's not immediately apparent to you as a user of them, based on the testing that Benson had previously done.

If Apples devices can detect this, you may get an error. People are already ragging on the cost of Apples USB-C cables, but to my knowledge, they all meet the spec and will also 100% work at 100W of charging and the other auxiliary items in the spec that most manufacturers seem to just ignore.

Now, with all that said, I'd never pay Apples price for a single cable, but if you absolutely want a cable that's going to meet spec, I also can't fault you for buying one either!

A small handful of friends have had their phones die at my house because neither me nor my neighbor I'm friends with have any iPhone cables. Them being able to charge their phone now might get them to see the light a bit. (and hopefully stop being the only reason our group chat isn't rcs)
