That’s got to be something you’re doing. Cause I’ve had exactly zero problems. In fact I don’t think I’ve actually met a person who’s ever had a problem with USB - C. But I have boxes (plural) of dead micro USB cables and, on top of that, I have so many devices that have been rendered useless by the fact that the micro USB port has been blown or damaged in some way it’s not even funny.
Edit, these are not all mine. They are from multiple people.
I’m with you. Those spring-latch-things on the micro just give up on life and the whole thing becomes useless or tears apart the port you try to plug them into. I say leave them in the past
And because of the little metal piece that would break off and prevent your phone from charging. You could just weasel it out with tweezers but most people would think their port was broken because they didn’t know it was even an issue.
Type-C ports are a lot more sensitive to dirt in my experience. I can keep it working if I clean the port every couple weeks, but at this point I just pretend phones don’t have charging ports.
I’ve had 400% more failures of USB C than of micro. Keep in mind I’ve only had C for a couple years, and micro for 14 across numerous devices.

Yeah, I love the counter argument of “oh, the USB - C gets dirt in it”. As though that hasn’t been an issue with every port ever conceived. 😒
Was a lot less of an issue with lightning than with other connectors, but I realize that people hate the lightning for some reason.
People hate lightning because it’s proprietary

LG phones were notoriously bad…the v60 especially had a defective port.
I don’t know what you’re doing because I’ve had 0 failures with it

They are, but it hasn’t been a problem for me. I clean the port on my phone maybe twice a year
Sounds like you need to invest in some port covers.
Do not taunt micro USB adapter
Failures of ports or cables?
Definitely user error.
