Prompted by @kennyb123 and his photo of his K30 I took a peep inside my K50. The mounting brackets for the USB socket are more comprehensive than I remember them and incorporate side clamps that can be adjusted to push onto the side clips on the USB socket. There is a fine balance between having them too tight which stops the USB plug going into the socket and just about the right side pressure to allow the plug to go in but for the socket to keep hold of the USB plug once inserted.
So K50 owners can adjust the tightness of the USB socket if theirs is too loose although one has to be happy about disassembling the K50 to a certain extent to get access to the inside of the USB socket. This involves more that just taking the lid off the K50.
I don’t remember this side clamp arrangement on the earlier version of the K50 so it may be just on the current version. In which case Antipodes appear to have taken notice of the earlier criticism of the USB socket looseness. Well done Antipodes.
I have adjusted my USB output socket so that it is a nice snug fit onto the USB cable plug.
