When the OnePlus 2 was launched the company also launched a new USB Type-C cable which was designed to be used with the handset and other devices.
There has been quite a bit of discussion about the cable and it not being compatible with all USB Type-C devices and now the company has said that it will offer refunds on the cable.
OnePlus has said that its cable uses a 10kΩ resistor but the USB Type-C standard uses a 56kΩ resistor and this is what has caused the problem.
So basically the cable is fine for charging your OnePlus 2 smartphone but not other third party devices and the company will now refund anyone who want to send their cable back.
