At this point I've had 3 phones with USB-C. My first, a Nexus 6P, eventually had it's connector fail to tightly grip any cables, resulting in an easy to disconnect connection. While this sounds like the common USB-C problem of lint/material in the phone side, no amount of cleaning ever fixed it. The second phone, also a 6P had no issues. My current, a Pixel 2XL has had the phone side connector metal slightly bent inwards from a bump, resulting in a quite sturdy connection. So far I haven't had any cable connectors fail for me.
