I agree that removing PVC was more for show, than for being environmentally friendly. It’s another one of Apple’s “green” policies that isn’t green: while the material may be “green”, going through multiple cables in the time a single “non-green” cable would have lasted, is certainly the bigger waste of resources, and less green. The 5,000 mAh battery provides up to 18 hours of power while the USB 2.1 Type-A port and Rapid Charge technology deliver power consistently and efficiently at 10.5W. So this is clearly a materials issue, not a use issue, unless Apple wants to make the case users should wear gloves while handling their cables, or wipe off any finger residue after every touch of the cables.įrankly, that’s where Apple really should have been hit with a class action suit a long time ago. UE5044 provides 5,000mAh capacity to charge smartphones, tablets, smartwatches, headphones, ear buds, and more. I have old Apple cables that still used PVC or something, and they are fine and I have new cables, used just a few times, that degrade just not being used at all. It’s circular reasoning at it’s best.īut it’s provable that it’s a product issue. Of course, how could the statistics show a pattern given that attempts at getting a warranty exchange are denied?Īpple denies there’s a problem with the insulation material, and thus denies warranty exchanges, ans then uses the lack of warranty exchanges to argue there’s no issue with the insulation. If then you argue it’s an issue with the product, they claim it’s not known and warranty claim statistics show nothing unusual. After it’s peeled off, frayed, or eventually, they claim it’s the result of misuse. You try to have the cable exchanged under warranty, when it’s in the discolored or gooey state, they refuse because “it’s only cosmetic”. When switching to “environmentally friendly” plastic on their cables, which are now known to degrade where the plastic gets in contact with sweat and finger grease (first discoloration, then it gets gooey, and then it simply peels off), Apple uses a similar tactic: Great! The practice of removing customers complaints must stop, so I hope the court sets an example.
