> Ok, should I get an adapter for Micro-B and USB-A, and use 2 adapters at the same time for data transfer?

Do you do data transfer currently using USB-A to Micro-B with existing devices? You could probably do this using a wireless transfer app like Airdroid (android) if you really had to. Data transfer should still work with adapters, only USB-A to USB-A has issues since USB standard doesn't really support that. (think of older USB cables as being directional).

From the reply I can gather you are pretty against going USB-C for stuff. If thats the case I would stick to older Anker stuff for equipment. They basically make the best quality stuff in regards to cables, chargers, and portable batteries.

> Except for 2 phones (iPhone 7 & Samsung S9), all of my phones have Micro-B. For charging, I can use only the Micro-B adapter, if I have a USB-C charger. 10 phones, both of my Bluetooth speakers and both of my old, garbage tablets use Micro-B. Also, I need a good USB-A charger (not power bank) for my iPod Mini. Any recommendations?

Are you currently using 10 phones and your garbage tablet???

Mine are from Ikea and are memory foam as well. Recently I've been hearing about some sort of jel being better than foam, especially for removing heat from your pillow/head.

I guess I'll skip purple harmony for now, and look at other ones. I'm thinking coop because of its Customer Reports review, its adjustable, jel and memory foam options, looks firm(ish?)

Here are your options.

  1. Latest iPhone: Apple has been known to have the best long term software upgrades/support for its phones. They have long last batteries, when they do start to degrade they degrade gracefully and unnoticeably to the end user.

  2. Latest Pixel 7: Google has recently committed to providing long software support to its pixel phone line. There is an option to contact customer support directly on the phone. It starts with a pretty good bot but if things get complicated they'll redirect you to a human

  3. old Nokia brick: there is a reason why they get called bricks, they last forever. Nothing can break them

Finally if you buy a smart phone get a good screen protector and a otterbox or similar case. Its the case that saves the phone physically.

Maybe consider getting one of the newer dyson cordless vacuum's? They have a sensor that tells you the size of particulates it is picking up. you can see the total amount of individual particles vacuumed up along with the size of each particle.

Well USB-A to USB-C is always going to be lower quality than USB-C to USB-C. USB-A stuff is always an after thought because its essentially dead. Personally I would recommend getting a very good USB-C to USB-C cable and buying tiny adapters to switch to other older standards. USB-C PD now supports up to 240W, Amazon has UGreen 240W cables available. Essentially if you get this you can use this cable to charge any electronic device that has come out or will come out in the future.
