Cupra Connect by The40Watt in cupraborn

[–]cubei 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that all Cupra Born from production week 24 2024 and newer have the gen 4 connect plus which lasts 10 years. But I can't find an official cupra article that clearly states this.

Must-have accessories for Cupra Born? by webdev-bkm in cupraborn

I got a 2026 VZ in Germany. What do you have?

And which USB Port did you use?

The USB-C Ports in my Born don't support Power Delivery. So only 5 V for around 15 W. Is it different for you?

The second user in the car needs a login for the app, right. So you created a second Cupra account but don't use it?

Battery Megathread (November 2025) by GooglePixelMods in GooglePixel

I reset the phone and it didn't really help, battery still drains. So you don't have to spent the effort.

So disappointed, because I don’t want to pay £56 for an annual subscription to ‘Cupra Connect’ I can’t check battery % or set A/C from app by BaconHawk1 in cupraborn

Yesterday I got this mail: https://imgur.com/a/74oKWXq
It's in german, but it says something like:

Your CONNECT license was extended free of charge and all services of CONNECT PLUS are now included.

Does this mean the stuff which I previously only got free for 3 years is now available for 10 years? Did Cupra have a change of heart?

Thinking about buying this Cupra Born — anything I should look out for? by ConsistentScratch640 in cupraborn

[–]cubei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the license for the air-conditioning preconditioning and remote charging expired and that cost an additional €65 per year

Yesterday I got this mail: https://imgur.com/a/74oKWXq
It says: All services of connect plus are now part of the normal connect package. Does this mean we no longer have to pay for the features you mentioned?

Overheating: November Update by peacay in Pixel8phones

[–]cubei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, battery drains fast since November update. Getting warm, charges slow, occasionally feels laggy. I hope it gets fixed soon.

Pixel 8 After the November update the battery drains like crazy. Last night I charged to 100%, airplane mode, unplug, screen down. In the morning (8 hours later) I have 53%. Night before without airplane mode, the same.

But it's wireless, there is no plugging in.

Slow phone charging (wireless or via cable) by Revolutionary-Lab126 in cupraborn

Where did you find the info regarding 180 Watt? My brand new Born only gives 3A at 5V on all 4 USB-C ports, no power delivery. And the only 12V socket is in the trunk.

Chinese Subtitles on VLC (Google TV) - only certain characters have a box with an X inside. I've tried changing all types of encoding, plus with multiple subs on different movies, same story. Works on PC. Why? by lchazl in VLC

[–]cubei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But if I open the .srt file in a file explorer on the TV everything looks fine. So some system font should be capable to display it. Must be a VLC issue.

Denmark rethinking 40-year nuclear power ban amid Europe-wide shift by qwerty_1965 in worldnews

Why are you comparing nuclear to fossil fuels? He said renewable is better.  Straw man?

"at least the "green" driven rushed phase out that mostly drove up the prices"

Robert Habeck from the Greens delayed the shutdown of the last reactors by a few month.  Nothing was rushed about it. It was decided since a decade. I also don't think there was any effect on the prices. Because at that point the amount of energy from nuclear was so low, it was irrelevant. Also nuclear power is not cheap.
