It's so sad that X4 Pro does not have USB-C.

They have added backlight, but still left charging/connecting to proprietary magnetic adapter.

Yeah, the connector they've made is absolutely bananas, wonder what they were thinking? Was there a 3rd-party docking ecosystem they were expecting to be spawned by this, or something? The magnetic connector by itself makes no sense, unless I severely misunderstand how it's supposed to be used in practice.

They're supposedly not proprietary but a standard size that's easily replaced.

Any guesses why they went with that connector rather than USB C?

Ok, though still obscure.

I don’t want to looking where to order it when it’s lost or broken.
