    I don’t know what are you doing with your phones. I have never witnessed someone wearing out a USB Type-C port.

    Anyway, if you want to be upset at someone, the implementators of USB standards are: Apple, HP, Intel, Microsoft, Renesas Electronics, STMicroelectronics, Texas Instruments.

      I did! My phone is several years old at this point and I’ve accidentally yanked it while it was plugged in many times. Now I have to try reseating otherwise it frequently won’t fast charge or charge at all the first time I go to plug it in.

      Just normal wear and tear though so it’s fine and it’s still better than micro USB. Or Apple’s proprietary lightning connector…
