Charger

Post by torofinance »

1. Can I use ANY charger to charge Retrostone? Like an iPad charger (10W) (aka will then power input adjust automatically)

2. Comment: Choice to use microUSB is too bad, usb C wouldve been a bit more "forward thinking", now I have to carry around a microusb cable, if I lose it I can't charge it.

1. It should work, but if you have a charger that has no "fast charge" option it's better (just plain 5V 2A+), as in some cases those fast chargers seem to apply higher voltage (9V or so).

2. There'r pros and cons for microUSB vs usbC. Lot of people still don't have USBC chargers whereas a lot of people have microUSB.

I'm not sure I understand a lot of the concerns about the chargers on devices like this. A lot of us have existing devices that use these cords.

Outside your little world, most Android devices have used micro USB for, I don't know, over a decade? Your suggestions would have made a horrible choice.
