Micro-USB is an abomination from a durability perspective, and in no way does this reflect reality for the majority of Micro-USB plugs and sockets I've found in the wild.
- eropple 4y agoI'm pretty sure that rated lifetime is for correct insertion, yeah. USB-C has a thicker cross-section and the rounded ends definitely help with correct insertion to reduce the likelihood of whomping on the socket when you plug it in.
