android

The version history of the Android mobile operating system began with the public release of its first beta on November 5, 2007. The first commercial version, Android 1.0, was released on September 23, 2008. The operating system is developed by Google on a yearly cycle since at least 2011. New major releases are announced at Google I/O along with its first public beta to supported Google Pixel devices. The stable version is then released later in the year.

    USB cables for Android auto

    I am looking for 0.75m long USB A to USB C, like rocking horse manure unless you want to spend mega bucks. I also want 0.75m long USB C TO USBC And 0.75m long USB C TO LIGHTNING. I can easily get 0,5m but too short, and 1m too long, I hate dangling cables.
