I’m baffled by the phones that include quick charge with C. Using a regular old type C cable can charge a phone crazy fast. I guess if you already have like a dozen quick charge adapters, it could make sense to get C to A cables and use those.

But if you’re like most people with a quick charge phone, you have only one quick charge adapter, the one that came with your last phone. In that case, your new C phone has a C adapter, leaving you with one C and one quick charge adapter. It makes more sense to pick C and buy more of those if you need more, since that will be future proof and work with more devices. And people without any quick charge adapters at all (such as myself, my last phone had quick charge but came with a regular adapter and I never bothered buying one) have no reason to even consider quick charge and should just embrace C.

So it feels like this idea of including both adds complexity, cost, and apparently risk to the phone, in order to add a marginal benefit to a rather small portion of the consumers.
