I thought it's the exact opposite?
In Lightning the sturdy bit is the cable and the wobbly bit that grabs it is in the device.
In USB-C the sturdy bit is in the phone and the wobbly bit is in the cable.
It's the wobbly bit that breaks.
- DrBenCarson 3y agoNo, lightning ports are more durable and cables less durable. USB-c ports are less durable and cables more durable. It’s about which end has thinner pins
- nrp 3y agoIn Lightning, the springs are in the device and the pads are on the cable. With USB-C, the springs are in the cable, and the pads are in the device. There are different failure modes for the springs failing vs the tongue that the pads are on failing. One approach is not universally better than the other.
