Apple is losing its grip on India as its sales dropping with fans are moving to Chinese smartphones such as OnePlus, Xiaomi and Huawei for their next smartphone. We’ve come across several cases where people express their immense frustration on social media whenever they are unhappy with their devices. Mahindra Group chairman Anand Mahindra seems unhappy with his new Apple iPad Pro and he took to Twitter to express displeasure with his Apple device. Anand Mahindra looks to be disliking his iPad Pro for the reason that he will have to carry separate chargers for his iPhone and the new iPad.
He explained his problem on Twitter, “Got a new iPad & found that the lightning connector’s been replaced. So need a new charger which doesn’t work with my iPhone & new earphones too. More junk when I travel. Great strategy to boost accessory sales, but not surprised more folks are sticking to existing models”
Interestingly, he used an Android phone to tweet this.

Moreover, Anand Mahindra also complained about the existing earphones for the iPhone doesn’t work with the new iPad Pro. He is angry at the fact that reason that he will have to carry separate earphones to connect to the iPad.
Although Apple didn’t notice this tweet or reply to him. Anand Mahindra’s Twitter handle has lots of followers and Apple might face losses as Anand Mahindra’s followers might read his negative comment and not to for Apple devices.
From last few years, we’ve been hearing rumors that Apple would move away from lightening connector and adopt USB-C for everything. The company has retained one Type-A USB port only on the MacBook Pro. Both the MacBook and MacBook Air has Type-C ports only and come with a 3.5mm headphone jack.
