How fast will this wear out the Lightning socket?
Since Apple put the springs in the socket and not the plug (like USB-C) when that socket wears out the phone is a right off.
- qubex 7y agoRight off the bat, I think you mean write-off. ;)
- Lio 7y agoAh the beauty of being dyslexic. Occasionally I substitute the wrong spelling of words, especially when replying on a phone for some reason. Well at least you understood the point I was trying to convey.
- kayoone 7y agoI've been using the adapter in my car for 2 years, twice a day, no problems so far. Lightning is far more resilient to this than USB-C ports in my Macbook for example, which have become pretty loose over the years of plugging in chargers and monitors.
- Lio 7y agoIt's the lead that becomes loose not the port with USB-C so you can change the cable you use to connect to your monitor and it will be like new again.
- asdff 7y agoIt really depends on how you treat my phone. My iphone 5 took a lot of abuse, and I had to use a rubber band to apply pressure on the port to get it to charge by the end of its life. So far my SE1 is holding up.
