I got the USB-C 3.2 Long Life Cable today and noticed a ‘clicking’ sound when unplugging right away.
After reading the posts here, I compared it with a Nokia USB-C cable and charger. What was quite interesting is the fact that it makes the sound even when not plugged into a charger or phone. Even when just popping off the attached USB-A adapter, I get the sound - no matter which end of the cable I connect it to. So if this really was an electrical issue, the unplugging had to create enough friction to cause this, which sounds unlikely to me (then again, never was good with physics). My guess is: this sound is the tiny pins inside the USB-C connector that snap back in place or something like that? Probing the insides of the connector of the Nokia and Fairphone cable gives the impression that inside the Nokia one everything seems very stiff while there seems to be some flexibility in the Fairphone one. It’s really hard to tell though.
Did anybody get an answer from support on that matter? I’ve read that some got the info that this indeed was a defect.
