Just not the usual android cable. Later take pic.

But is it a type C to type A?



If by 'usual' android cable you mean micro-type-B then yeah of course the G4 doesnt use that because its charging port is type C.

SellWatch, please elaborate "cable is different" and where your phone came from (if export the its fine).

C to C and A to C is common, FYI.

Unless your "not common" is C to B or C to
USB 3.0 (HHD cable). Which I doubt so
If do, reviewers like Erica Griffin confirm make a video about it.

Appreciate your GPGT rather then words :)

Was at Singtel Seletar mall...ask the sales girl to show how to detach the module.

She said cannot, as it will spoil the set

Well...who am i to question signs from above

It is A to C.

Do the USB plugs of your cable look like this

If yes, then your G5 has the correct cable and you were probably not aware that the G5 has moved over to USB type C (just like upcoming phones like huawei P9 and HTC 10)


I guess with 2016 being the transition year from USB micro-B to type C for mainstream android, less informed customers are going to know what apple users felt like when lightning ports debuted.

Wow.. is the phone that fragile and delicate that detaching the module will damage the phone? What a freaking joke.. :s13:

She just lazy or company inflexible

She say live set cannot detach

So dummy can huh...

actually the dummy doesnt have a detachable bottom. It has a line painted where the seam should be but its a 'true unibody'. Saw it when I was at M1 waterway point back then.

sounds like a reverse of last year's situation.

My G4 came from kasia and back then they already had it in stock before the official saturday launch
