I'm another 2017 Macbook Air guy... I bought this because my 2012 Macbook Air is considered 'vintage' now and apple won't change the battery even if you want to pay them to do so. It's still alive and it was great for 6 years of heavy daily use. I hope this one lasts as long and Apple unfucks itself before it's time is done.
The magsafe port always impressed me as a kid, when I would unplug it a couple of times every time I saw a mac at the store, and it still does to this day. Why would you get rid of it? It is a brilliant idea
They got it back with the new MacBook Pro 14 & 16. Hopefully, it releases on next year's 2022 Macbook Air. It is now called Magsafe 3 and is more durable and fast charges Macbooks. One of the greatest port comebacks ever in the computer and laptop world.
The 30 pin connector for the iPods and early iPhones was really Apple's attempt at future proofing their devices. If you look at the schematics of the 30 pin connector, it had compatibility with all sorts of possible connections that were around at the time. (It could support S-video, of all things.) I remember reading somewhere that either two or four of the pins were not connected to anything, they were just there to allow Apple to add compatibility in the future. This seems a bit extreme, but you have to remember that at the time (2003-2004), USB was still relatively new, and no one really knew which computer connector would become ubiquitous in the future. We all know that USB would, but that wasn't really that clear at the time.
Then why do Lightning ports fail more often than Micro USB? The one ELECTRONIC (not mechanical) reason i can think of is the pins for analogue audio, which USB doesn't have
@@josecarlosxyz and why didn't they use that in their laptops? They use the same usb c ports that android flagships made standard years ago and almost all android phones has these days. Still they are using the outdated stupid lightning for their smartphones because its their money cow and they know people would still buy it.
Jake Gibbons they hardly ever fail compared to micro usb that will fail if you drop your device well it’s connected or even move it around at all when charging. micro usb has been garbage since it first was invented and i’m pretty glad everyone is moving to usb c, i will never buy another expensive device with micro usb, it charges slow, is insanely fragile and non reversible, even the cables arnt durable at all and break very easily
@Balázs László Yes, you can, but wireless headphones are the opposite of convinient. It's another device you need to remember to charge, you can easly lose them and at this point in time they are far less universal then the good old 3,5 mm jack.
Yes mhan this guy is a joke . In the beginning when he was stating the facts I believed him and by the end he was like apple knows what's right for all. Pure bullshit
@@bspringer Still lightning is better in the most crucial way.. you see, sometimes accident happen and in that case lightning is better... lightning port doesn't have a pin like usb c. ao when it is forced to break.. of course by accident, you damage the phone entirely in usb c.. as the jack inside gets destroyed.. but lightning doesn't have that chip inside the phone connection but in the jack itself. Now my galaxy s9 connector is broken.. I only can charge my phone via wireless.. but my ipad survived this 2 times..cable broken but device jack connection okay.. I am very clumsy I agree.
@@mxdanger I just told one way where lightning is better.. there are other things better with lightning as well.. voltage protection. chip inserts and few other minor things

Not even going to mention: ADB ADC AAUI Newton Interconnect Remote Control for iPod mini-VGA mini-DVI DB-15 all of their SCSI and Serial connections ExpressCard I dont even think thats all of them
Oops, I thought the ExpressCard 5/4 port was only used in the first gen MBP. But ADB was only used by Apple and given to clone manufactures as part of the agreement. The only machines that came with ADB were ones that ran Mac OS and were approved by Apple, so I guess it is a gray area. (Same thing with 30 pin and lightning if that is the case)
Apple licenses its Lightning connector and the Express card slot is was used by lots of manufacturers such as HP. my HP ELITEBOOK 2540p has an express card 34 slot
Originally developed by the Personal Computer Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA), ExpressCard is not remotely an Apple technology. It was an industry standard that Apple used for a brief blink in time
The serial connectors were ISO 422 (connector & signal levels), as compared to PCs that started with rs-232 then shifted to a non-standard DE-9 connector and non-standard signal levels. I believe they used the standard SCSI connector, at least it was the same as our workstations. Never used a DB-15, it’s a DC-15 (first letter is shape, second letter is size: B can hold 25 pins, C 15 pins, E 9 pins at common pin pitch; the later VGAs used DE-15, denser pin pitch in E size, also referred to as HD-15)
2016 was the year: -Apple removed the headphone jack -Made an Apple Pencil that sticks out of the charging port -Made the Magic Mouse charge from the bottom -Removed a TON of ports from the MacBook Pro and left only USB C -Sold a lot of annoying dongles They were doing something wrong that year
They were right about the headphone jack and removing ports though. Sure it was annoying at the time, but wireless is becoming more and more common. Any Apple peripherals are simply sold to upkeep their image of being a luxury tech company, the decisions they make with them don't generally make sense compared to their other product lines.
ok but like why does the Apple Pencil genuinely makes the ipad look like a clown... apple youre a trillion dollar company you can think better than this
I really don't believe removing I/O options makes things more simple for the user. I'm for the idea of replacing old outdated stands with new ones, provided there has been a transition period, or the new standard is backwards compatible.
anugrah ajendran “Best buys top selling Apple products” this means it was not apples best selling accessory it was Best Buy’s best selling accessories and it makes perfect since lol if anyone wants to buy a full fledge Apple product high chance is they want to go to an actual Apple store if all they need is a dongle than why not grab one at Best Buy lmao
anugrah ajendran “have actually been Apple’s best-selling product category at Best Buy since Q1 2016” this is so obvious why would it be any diffrent lmao
8:03 "first smartphone ever made without a headphone jack" totally wrong, a lot of devices from PDA-era doesn't have headphone jack, and many early Android device like HTC Dream.
ok i lie i had the hero i got confused with the dream but still it’s very pushing it. coz at that time you could say the iphone 2g didn’t have a headphone jack and both phones needed a dongle
I like the idea of having an adapter customized to specific needs... But I think it's still too early to remove SD card slot and USB-A ports. And I prefer the MagSafe to the USB-C... Same for the Lightening connector, it's clearly better than the micro-USB!
@@bullet01l30 I don't want pocket bulge. But also, if we're all being honest, Apple got rid of the headphone jack to push true-wireless earbuds. Maybe not necessarily to push airpods, but they knew that true-wireless was the future, and they were right. The last model that had the headphone jack was proof that they would either have to make them thicker, or get rid of the jack.
The omission of MagSafe was a great mistake. I can understand with iPhone free space is highly important but with MacBooks that is not so important. MagSafe could survive and many damages could have been avoided with MagSafe.
I love my 2017 MBP, the fact that I get home plug one cable in and get my hard drive, monitor, keyboard and mouse all up and running instantly is amazingly elegant
Awesome video; so much history surrounding ports! :) One thing however... the iPhone 7 was first smartphone to not have a headphone jack; a couple of obscure Android phones removed it a few months before Apple did, but Apple was the first major smartphone manufacturer to remove it. :)
I started using Mac in 1996 and I'm not aware of a connector called ABC. Did you perhaps mean ADB (Apple Desktop Bus) or ADC (Apple Display Connector)?
According to Apple's logic, it doesn't make sense that the iPhone X/XR/XS don't include de 3.5mm jack, since they removed the home button with the haptic engine
The haptic engine is still there; it is used to provide vibrations for things like ringer notifications and "haptic touch" (3D/Force touch on X, XS). Also, Apple would never add something back after they have removed it *cough cough the headphone jack* and also because *Apple is Apple, what did you expect?*
Rogelio Ramos believe me, like the headphone jake the charging connector will be *gone* sooner than everyone think

Whats up with lightning they are much better and they say usb c is evrywhere i never saw one in person and in my class theres mire lightning then usb c users
7:55 - not true an android phone beat apple and removed the headphone jack first. Then everyone accused apple of copying even though it was rumored to be removing it almost 8months in advance
My sister still has her 2015 MacBook Pro. It’s lasted 6 years through college and graduate school, and has tons of ports, MagSafe, and the glowing logo. That was the height of MacBook
Not one of my Apple devices is from after 2010. Apple has become a fashion company and Jony Ive removed as many ports as he could so he could rub the smooth surfaces and get a woody.
I understand the simplicity aspect of many of Apple's decisions, however in reality, they've often made the situation worse. For instance, those who bought a phone with a Lightning port and owned 30-pin accessories now had to buy an adapter, adding another easy-to-lose accessory within the chain, or be forced to buy all new accessories with native Lightning connections (all of which now do not work with the new iPad Pro, which uses USB-C). An even better example of this is the Macbook Pro with USB-C connectors. I can't recall how many Apple users I've talked to who were thinking about upgrading or even just casually mentioning how they looked at the new Macbook Pros and disliked so many things about them. Aside from the absolutely awful keyboard, the main thing they complained about was lack of ports. Now, obviously you can use many devices with a single Thunderbolt 3 port, but almost all of them require some sort of dongle to make it work, especially if you're talking about connecting multiple things to a single port. For most Mac users I've talked to, the insanely small number of ports completely rules out the 13" MBP for them, and even the 15" which gets double the ports is still a point of contention. There's a few things that Apple either failed to consider or didn't care about forcing upon their customers. MY primary gripe is the fact that Magsafe was a great connection type; while the adapters themselves were extremely poorly engineered and prone to failure, the connection itself is ingenious in that it makes connection to the charger almost idiot-proof (almost), while also providing an extremely convenient safety factor for what is such a common problem with laptops in general. I wouldn't even mind the USB-C only connectors had they just included the Magsafe on top of that. USB-C connectors do not elegantly break away when you trip over the cord. Magsafe was a huge advantage for Apple and doing away with it was a terrible mistake. Second, the thing that most other people seemed to complain about were the ports and/or the lack thereof. While plenty of dongles exist that provide all sorts of ports in one solution, a lot of potential buyers don't seem to be aware of them and are afraid that they cannot plug in more than 4 things, including the power cable. They also don't know how they're going to plug in the stuff they already use, like USB drives and SD cards. Even after telling them about the various dongles out there, they're immediately put off by the fact that, not only do they have to buy extra dongles for each type of thing they want to use, but they also have to carry them around, keep track of them, and plug them in when they want to use something. I mentioned the multi-port dongles previously, and while some of them are slick and quick complete, I wouldn't want to have to use that kind of thing on anything other than a laptop that simply sits at a desk and never moves. And I already have this thing that does a better job of that, called a desktop computer. I really think that Tim Cook is running Apple's products, if not the company itself, into the ground by chasing after a few select pieces of Steve Jobs' design aesthetics without truly considering the functional impact that their design decisions are having. Average Mac users don't like these changes, they have been using the same stuff for years and want to be able to upgrade their machines without having to totally change the way they use their computer. Jobs had great foresight and slowly removed legacy ports just before they were starting to become obsolete. Tim Cook is removing usable features that still have immense, everyday value to most users that aren't even remotely obsolete solely in the name of form over function. Professional users may not care so much (though if I were a professional I certainly wouldn't choose to have an awful keyboard just to make the laptop a millimeter thinner), but the average user is starting to turn away from these compromised products.
I understand the simplicity and making it easier but at the same time they made it harder due to now needing an adapter. Been a loyal Mac user for years and still have my 2012 MacBook Pro as my main laptop but I’m starting to look for a replacement and can’t see myself getting another MacBook with the need for adapters and no SSD upgradability
I do agree with removing the 3,5mm jack, I have used Bluetooth headphones on my phone ever since Bluetooth 2.1. Removing the MagSafe port though, was rubbish.
I would like to see something else other than the history of ------ even though I like the series and it should go on maybe you could talk about the situation of Apple right now or some type of commentary. I don't really expect my comment to be noticed but that's all nice video
Macsafe port? 8+ years ago, the connector caught fire while connected to the MacBook Pro... The transformer occasionally did not power off when the port is disconnected...That caused the fire which also killed the MacBook Pro...
Iphone 7: headphone jack is gone Iphone X: home button is gone Iphone 12: off and on button is gone iPhone 15: volume buttons are gone iPhone XX: *_I P H O N E I S G O N E_*
This is exactly why I still use a 2011 MacBook Pro alongside my main Mac and gaming rig. I was tired of being tied to my desktops for everything, but I didn't wanna go overboard on a laptop that would only be used occasionally (despite the fact I use the MacBook more than both now lol). I really love having the variety of ports, paired with a great OS. I've upgraded the mac to 12GB of ram, and threw an SSD in it, and its snappy and responsive for being 11 years old. I also really love this laptop just for MagSafe as well!
Ian Lindsay yeah a great company that likes cheating their customers and squeezing as much cash out of their pockets as possible. Not to mention a great company whose technology is inferior to their competitors in nearly every way.
iTechyounot I’ve bought apple products before (iPhone 6s, iPhone 4, iPad 2) but they are such a scummy company now. They’ve always been that way but it’s gotten much worse in the past few years.
Apple Desktop Bus is a bit-serial computer bus connecting low-speed devices to computers. It was introduced on the Apple IIGS in 1986 as a way to support low-cost devices like keyboards and mice, allowing them to be connected together in a daisy chain without the need for hubs or other devices. ADB was quickly introduced on later Macintosh models, and also found use on computers from NeXT, and saw some other 3rd party use as well. ADB was rapidly replaced by USB as that system became popular in the late 1990s; the last external ADB port on an Apple product was in 1999, though it remained as an internal-only bus on some Mac models into the 2000s.
@@raspberry144mb3 NO apple had their own kind of like PS/2 Connector it was called Apple Device port Or ADP or ADB. it was a proprietary Device interface on early macs for their keyboards and mice used to have them on the sides of macintosh keyboards
I tested out 3.5 mm adaptor to lightning doesn’t sound as good not as much details everything sounds more compressed for example a band sounds like they’re close together almost squished together in comparison to normal headphone jacks on older Apple products
When Apple removed MagSafe, a proprietary connector from their MacBooks in favour of USB C, an industry standard connector many people were outraged. And yet people are criticising Apple for still keeping the proprietary Lightning port instead of switching to the industry standard USB C. Such hypocrites they are! 😠😡
but at the time it wasnt as huge as lack of headphone jack because everyone knew that optical disks were more useful, especially with the recordable ones. People only needed floppies around 2000 for specific things such as doing taxes here for some reason. What really had some controversy, but is not a por connection is the end of Flash support, which was being widely used at the time.

Disappointed there was no mention of ABC or other ports.
I started using Mac in 1996 and I'm not aware of a connector called ABC. Did you perhaps mean ADB (Apple Desktop Bus) or ADC (Apple Display Connector)?
I meant ADB, whoops!
@Xavier Tridento Firewire is not apple proprietary.
the fact that this video needs to exist shows everything
According to Apple's logic, it doesn't make sense that the iPhone X/XR/XS don't include de 3.5mm jack, since they removed the home button with the haptic engine
Facu AF they did it to sell their earpods
@@010dx010 that what he is saying.
The haptic engine is still there; it is used to provide vibrations for things like ringer notifications and "haptic touch" (3D/Force touch on X, XS). Also, Apple would never add something back after they have removed it *cough cough the headphone jack* and also because *Apple is Apple, what did you expect?*
Facu AF they removed it to make it more water proof
Do you really think the haptic engine was just for the home button ? It is still in there. 3D touch and the iPhone XR haptic force feedback’s use it.
The very near future (uptoo ~2 years):
iPhone - no ports
AirPods - no ports
Macs - USB C only (no aux)
iPad USB C and Qi
iPod touch discontinued (LOL)
krik not even funny
DragonTechRoyale4k idk abt 2 years but it’s realistic if they switch entirely to wireless charging
Rogelio Ramos believe me, like the headphone jake the charging connector will be *gone* sooner than everyone think
Whats up with lightning they are much better and they say usb c is evrywhere i never saw one in person and in my class theres mire lightning then usb c users
iPod Will still be sold cause apple needs to swindle little kids into buying them
7:55 - not true an android phone beat apple and removed the headphone jack first. Then everyone accused apple of copying even though it was rumored to be removing it almost 8months in advance
And it was an oppo that first removed it
Vlad Volkov Nobody cares about that tho. Tons of company wouldn’t have removed it if it wasn’t for Apple, just like the notch.
It was leaked months before the release and then oppo made a phone with no headphone jack based of the leaks
Bob Jeff cry
I have a 2013 MacBook Pro and have never used the thunderbolt 2 ports but I have used every other one heavily
i started with the iphone 4 charging port :3
VipexArtz I did too
Hideika same
My sister still has her 2015 MacBook Pro. It’s lasted 6 years through college and graduate school, and has tons of ports, MagSafe, and the glowing logo. That was the height of MacBook
Oh, the good old days, when you didn’t need a dongle for everything
Do history of Apple retail employees!! I’ve been waiting for that one!
Gary Coleman history of me buying too many Apple products
Not one of my Apple devices is from after 2010. Apple has become a fashion company and Jony Ive removed as many ports as he could so he could rub the smooth surfaces and get a woody.
I understand the simplicity aspect of many of Apple's decisions, however in reality, they've often made the situation worse. For instance, those who bought a phone with a Lightning port and owned 30-pin accessories now had to buy an adapter, adding another easy-to-lose accessory within the chain, or be forced to buy all new accessories with native Lightning connections (all of which now do not work with the new iPad Pro, which uses USB-C). An even better example of this is the Macbook Pro with USB-C connectors. I can't recall how many Apple users I've talked to who were thinking about upgrading or even just casually mentioning how they looked at the new Macbook Pros and disliked so many things about them. Aside from the absolutely awful keyboard, the main thing they complained about was lack of ports. Now, obviously you can use many devices with a single Thunderbolt 3 port, but almost all of them require some sort of dongle to make it work, especially if you're talking about connecting multiple things to a single port. For most Mac users I've talked to, the insanely small number of ports completely rules out the 13" MBP for them, and even the 15" which gets double the ports is still a point of contention.
There's a few things that Apple either failed to consider or didn't care about forcing upon their customers. MY primary gripe is the fact that Magsafe was a great connection type; while the adapters themselves were extremely poorly engineered and prone to failure, the connection itself is ingenious in that it makes connection to the charger almost idiot-proof (almost), while also providing an extremely convenient safety factor for what is such a common problem with laptops in general. I wouldn't even mind the USB-C only connectors had they just included the Magsafe on top of that. USB-C connectors do not elegantly break away when you trip over the cord. Magsafe was a huge advantage for Apple and doing away with it was a terrible mistake.
Second, the thing that most other people seemed to complain about were the ports and/or the lack thereof. While plenty of dongles exist that provide all sorts of ports in one solution, a lot of potential buyers don't seem to be aware of them and are afraid that they cannot plug in more than 4 things, including the power cable. They also don't know how they're going to plug in the stuff they already use, like USB drives and SD cards. Even after telling them about the various dongles out there, they're immediately put off by the fact that, not only do they have to buy extra dongles for each type of thing they want to use, but they also have to carry them around, keep track of them, and plug them in when they want to use something. I mentioned the multi-port dongles previously, and while some of them are slick and quick complete, I wouldn't want to have to use that kind of thing on anything other than a laptop that simply sits at a desk and never moves. And I already have this thing that does a better job of that, called a desktop computer.
I really think that Tim Cook is running Apple's products, if not the company itself, into the ground by chasing after a few select pieces of Steve Jobs' design aesthetics without truly considering the functional impact that their design decisions are having. Average Mac users don't like these changes, they have been using the same stuff for years and want to be able to upgrade their machines without having to totally change the way they use their computer. Jobs had great foresight and slowly removed legacy ports just before they were starting to become obsolete. Tim Cook is removing usable features that still have immense, everyday value to most users that aren't even remotely obsolete solely in the name of form over function. Professional users may not care so much (though if I were a professional I certainly wouldn't choose to have an awful keyboard just to make the laptop a millimeter thinner), but the average user is starting to turn away from these compromised products.
Did this man really just called the taptic engine the feedback engine
Next thing we'll see apple remove the headphone jack from the MacBook Pro. God. That's a dark future, but I can kinda see it take shape soon...
I understand the simplicity and making it easier but at the same time they made it harder due to now needing an adapter. Been a loyal Mac user for years and still have my 2012 MacBook Pro as my main laptop but I’m starting to look for a replacement and can’t see myself getting another MacBook with the need for adapters and no SSD upgradability
I’m happy that they use the Lightning Connector because it’s different from other phones and their chargers
Man I'm gonna miss MagSafe when I upgrade next year :(
Do you see a floating sandwich? Surface laptops can charge with usb c and a magnetic charger if you really like it!
@@mikailkraft Surface devices just suck man
Then dont upgrade? Why replace something if it works fine?
@@DaisyHead666 turns out i didn't miss it that much, but to answer your question I had to upgrade bc my screen turned purple/pink
@@doyouseeafloatingsandwich4301 Oh, thas unfortunate
Watching and writing this on iPhone 4,i do love the 30 pin connector
I do agree with removing the 3,5mm jack, I have used Bluetooth headphones on my phone ever since Bluetooth 2.1. Removing the MagSafe port though, was rubbish.
not really. MagSafe is not consistent at all
The lightning port click combined with the iOS 6 charging sound was lovely, it really sucks it only existed for a year
I would like to see something else other than the history of ------ even though I like the series and it should go on maybe you could talk about the situation of Apple right now or some type of commentary. I don't really expect my comment to be noticed but that's all nice video
Macsafe port? 8+ years ago, the connector caught fire while connected to the MacBook Pro... The transformer occasionally did not power off when the port is disconnected...That caused the fire which also killed the MacBook Pro...
I got an ad for a MacBook Hyperdrive while watching this LMAO
Iphone 7: headphone jack is gone
Iphone X: home button is gone
Iphone 12: off and on button is gone
iPhone 15: volume buttons are gone
iPhone XX: *_I P H O N E I S G O N E_*
Magsafe is such an ingenious connector. It's a shame they removed it
Do an Apple headphones video( earpods and their case)
SACY VACHHAR vite in the polls
Here in 2024: apple was forced by UE to put usb-c in the iPhone 15: revolution😂😂😂😂
Welp I hope my current phone doesnt go obsolete too soon cuz I for some reason kinda hate USB C on iPhone, it just doesnt feel iPhone anymore.
@@jimsdog23 Fr,like it is becoming an Android
MagSafe sounds like something that Nerf would make
1078: in 2018 we will have a paper tablet
2018:APPLE EXPLAINED INVADES
Kuta Mansion Lombok why 1078?
Steve jobs: PUT EVERY AVAILABLE PORT AT THE MOMENT
Tim Cook: do we need chargering port?
Apple says they are all about wireless but all they do is remove essential ports and sell even more dongles which add guess what MORE CABLE
if they remove the ports then they can’t sell dongles lmao, they’ll just have to buy airpods and a wireless charging pad
It’s nice we all get thunderbolt now because it’s genuinely game changing
Every other phone using USBC chargers: Why can't you just be normal
Apple: Autistic screeching
but if you do that on a modern MacBook it will brick itself
This is exactly why I still use a 2011 MacBook Pro alongside my main Mac and gaming rig. I was tired of being tied to my desktops for everything, but I didn't wanna go overboard on a laptop that would only be used occasionally (despite the fact I use the MacBook more than both now lol). I really love having the variety of ports, paired with a great OS. I've upgraded the mac to 12GB of ram, and threw an SSD in it, and its snappy and responsive for being 11 years old. I also really love this laptop just for MagSafe as well!
I like the history lesson but you're clearly a fan boy.
How is he a fanboy? All he did was make a video on Apple device ports
How can't you be a fanboy to such a great company, unless your like some old person who doesn't care about computers..
Ian Lindsay yeah a great company that likes cheating their customers and squeezing as much cash out of their pockets as possible. Not to mention a great company whose technology is inferior to their competitors in nearly every way.
@@MrCastleburger finally someone who isn't a fan boy.
iTechyounot I’ve bought apple products before (iPhone 6s, iPhone 4, iPad 2) but they are such a scummy company now. They’ve always been that way but it’s gotten much worse in the past few years.
gratz on 200k
I think apple didn’t do a clever thing removing all ports. If I had to buy a laptop I would never buy a mac.
They did a sensible thing by removing the ports. Do you know what is the best selling Apple product is Apple Dongles.
Usb c is the only port we need
3 years later and look at the new 2021 MacBook Pro, MagSafe is back along with HDMI and SD card reader.
And the old keyboard too 😂😂 whoops Apple 🍎
Still not over the Jack 😭
@@flame4986 I moved from iPhone to android to keep the headphone jack but now every company is removing them and the choice is so limited now 😭
@Rapts 😭
@Rapts ooooooooooooo didn't realise that the Jack is still on it! Thanks for telling me 😅
Build a bridge and get over it.
lol thats rough man. I don't miss it one bit
Apple Desktop Bus is a bit-serial computer bus connecting low-speed devices to computers. It was introduced on the Apple IIGS in 1986 as a way to support low-cost devices like keyboards and mice, allowing them to be connected together in a daisy chain without the need for hubs or other devices. ADB was quickly introduced on later Macintosh models, and also found use on computers from NeXT, and saw some other 3rd party use as well. ADB was rapidly replaced by USB as that system became popular in the late 1990s; the last external ADB port on an Apple product was in 1999, though it remained as an internal-only bus on some Mac models into the 2000s.
YOU DIDN'T COVER the old apple device port from mac's pre OS 10
That weird phone plug looking thing on the old old Macintosh keyboard.
@@raspberry144mb3 NO apple had their own kind of like PS/2 Connector it was called Apple Device port Or ADP or ADB. it was a proprietary Device interface on early macs for their keyboards and mice used to have them on the sides of macintosh keyboards
IT Was called Apple Desktop bus
Now i want the full story of the adapters.
Type-c is much faster than all chargers 🔌 , just use an adapter and your good
I tested out 3.5 mm adaptor to lightning doesn’t sound as good not as much details everything sounds more compressed for example a band sounds like they’re close together almost squished together in comparison to normal headphone jacks on older Apple products
Do history of ME, yes me, Buying Way Too Many Apple Products.
apple is evolving just backwards
Apples proprietary ports are a mess
They are fuck boi of the proprietary-ports.
When Apple removed MagSafe, a proprietary connector from their MacBooks in favour of USB C, an industry standard connector many people were outraged. And yet people are criticising Apple for still keeping the proprietary Lightning port instead of switching to the industry standard USB C. Such hypocrites they are! 😠😡
Wow you didn‘t even talk about ADB, ADC or all the others.
Tobias Timpe keeping it simple for the younger viewers lol
"All the others"
Name one.
I kept my old 2011 macBookPro because of this btw for some reason it’s not slow
Simplicity? I call BS. When you need dongles for everything how is that simple.
simplicity from a design viewpoint
Removing ports isn't "simplicity" it's "saving money in manufacturing on the expense of usability"
You forgot the Apple display connector and many others.
Also, there was controversy over the iMac G3’s lack of floppy drive over the CD-ROM drive.
but at the time it wasnt as huge as lack of headphone jack because everyone knew that optical disks were more useful, especially with the recordable ones. People only needed floppies around 2000 for specific things such as doing taxes here for some reason.
What really had some controversy, but is not a por connection is the end of Flash support, which was being widely used at the time.
@@lordeilluminati but they had a very good reason for that. And they were right.
If you plug in two USB-C chargers in a MacBook Pro, does it charge faster?
The moto was the first phone to not have a headphone jack not the iPhone 7.
Uhm every phone made 1994-2007 pretty much never had a 3.5mm Jack
007 no one bloody buys that phone
The Oppo R5 that came out in 2014 also didn't feature a headphone jack.
Hey just wanted to say you made another great video! Also, your voice is very comforting and easy to listen to. I’m guessing there’s a handsome guy behind the voice! Regardless, I hope you have a great day! ☺️♥️
What happened to ADB?
I just love the way he says “Activity Feed”
