Apple products are whatever,but honestly it's the Apple fans that are awful. Tho,that only applies to the people who view Apple as a company that can do no wrong,even though that's far from the truth.

Yeah, robbing customers of shitloads of cash, for products that fail to satisfy and not to mention making money off sweatshops and employing children in third world countries for cheaper labour.

I agree,although Apple isn't exactly the only company to use sweatshops and child labor

Definitely. And yet people keep buying their products..like,if I found out that my favorite company pulled that shit,I'd stop buying their shit,and maybe even try to convince people to boycott their asses.

Yee, good idea. I mean, with the amount of products using child labour, it's almost impossible to avoid using these products, but at least we can discourage people from having such a high degree of respect for these corporations who are pretty corrupt; Such as people thinking Steve Jobs to be a great man, but he was actually a bit of an asshole.

Hersheys has or had sweatshops but they promised to stop by 2017. I never checked if they did

Exactly! Didn't Steve Jobs once say in an interview that Apple steals their ideas from other companies?

I have a Samsung, and I've had to buy at least 5 new cables ever since I bought it

My sister had her Alpha for 2 years and a half without needing a new cable, and I'm still using the one they supplied me with for my S7, which I got last August

I got an S6 and the charger broke within a couple weeks. I use the one from my S4 which is 4 years now I think and it's in good condition

Their quality of production has literally no trend lol, but the S7 really was a jackpot IMO

Just put some heat shrink tubing over the end

that is a good idea, but sadly if it is big enough to get over the connector it will be to big to shrink to size. i could be wrong. either way i like your thinking. hot glue could work, you just need to work it into a clean wrap along the wire. just be sure not to melt the wire. or silicon calking may work... i might try to figure something out one day.

I mean, Apple is the best smart product producer, but there's a lot of flaws in their products. A LOT.

It's called "planned obsolescence"
