braided = superior

why do people like braided cables so much

@Goz3rr they feel indestructible and they don't twist on their own like some regular cables do

They don't break so easily

every braided earbud cable I've had has fucked up faster than just normal cables

this man lies

@crates that's basically my experience too

All the plastic/rubber cables I've had have eventually split, usually at the end of the "strain relief" (which often does fuck all)

I've never fucked up any of my cables lmao

but I just like the braided ones

i bet braided cables split too, you just dont see it

lmao strain relief is an epic meme

most braided cables do fuck all for stress relief

the ones i've seen anyways

Poundland used to do a micro USB cable that actually had decent strain relief, but everything else about the cable was shit as you'd imagine

what would drive people to buy a Teclast F5?

you know what's stupid? flat cables

t. oneplus owner

Yeh they can fuck off

fucking dash charge cable is flat

It looked cool but it was a pain in the ass to actually use

Too rigid

@Frederica Bernkastel how many more times are you going to ask this

and all the OP flat cables do this eventually: https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS11LMwPHUwl9euyAYRbfIUwPOeSgPJsn8cbpzzeIfVUP3ltWM-

apparently it's not damaging to the cable, but it just looks off

its probably just the lamination failing

doesn't really happen with round cables

yeah, people were concerned that it was some cable breakage inside

but with flat cables the insulation attempts to become round

apparently it's fine

they didn't actually say why

they bought it

they just said they did

it's a laptop with ok specs for a low price dear
