Magsafe is genuinely a nice innovation that users missed. It solves the cord yank problem. But I do like having the option to use USB-C if I don't have the MagSafe cable.
- memefrog 3y agoAlso USB-C absolutely sucks. The socket seems to attract dirt and dust in a way that prevents its proper working like no other.
- brokenmachine 3y agoI have lots of USB-C devices and never had that problem. I'm careful with my stuff though.
- Unfrozen0688 3y agoPhones are very sensitive to it as they are in a pocket. Pocket lint -> pushed in USB cable -> after some years the connector wont connect anymore
- brokenmachine 3y agoHad lots of phones, always in my pocket, never had that problem. Actually I just realized I put it in my pocket top-end down. So the usb socket is facing the sky. I suppose that might keep the usb socket further from pocket lint.
- amluto 3y agoThe only port I’ve ever experienced this problem with is Lightning. At least on many iPhone versions, if anything damages one of the delicate lead springs inside the port, Apple service will tell you to replace the entire phone.
- gumby 3y agoI'm the other way around: I just want to carry a UB C cable or two. The cable was designed so wear and damage should accrue to the cable, not the connector in your device.
