In our home every single power cord or iPhone charger broke at the same spot (we went through quite a few). Very frustrating and I was quite pissed at Apple for a long time, because of that. Today i know that we have simply been handling the cable too carelessly, pulling it out by the cable, having it continuously bent/twisted in a weird way. I know it sounds silly, but it never occurred to me that that kind of stress would be too much for a part that is used on a daily basis. We have one iPhone charger left and since I am making sure to not ever unplug it by pulling the cable or having it twisted or bent it still looks just as good as in the beginning.
I am sure Apple could produce a more robust cable if they wanted to, but it would probably not lock slick enough.
