- wildzzz 4y agoAnecdotally, I've never had a type C connector permanently fail on me. Nearly all of my micro-USB phones have been so damaged they refuse to charge without putting a bunch of stress on the connector in a specific direction. Even other micro-USB device sive had fail easily. My type C devices have held up well. Although I do like the lightning connector more, I honestly cannot explain why the cables always seem to be much worse quality.
- midoridensha 4y agoI always liked miniUSB connectors; they seemed pretty rugged despite having a small size. microUSB seemed like a step backwards; it was smaller (mainly thinner), but much more delicate. USB-C seems to be significantly more durable than microUSB, and it can handle a really impressive amount of power.
- rasz 4y agoYou are talking socket mounting durability.
