Reply to comment by Previous-Egg-5236 in USB-A - Micro-B/Micro USB cable, USB-A - USB-C cable & good charger suggestions by SuioganWilliam21

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

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.

How, on a phone with Android 2.3.6?

I don't use them all at once, but I turn them on at least once a month.
