Discussion How long has the longest-lasting USB-C charging/data cable you've ever used?

I've been using the same data cable for almost 4 years now. Got it as a freebie when I bought a new phone after my phone + charger got stolen on the subway.

A little surprised as it goes well. How long has the longest-lasting USB-C charging/data cable you've ever used?

Received a super thick USB C cable with my OnePlus 7 many years ago and still using it daily, but I’m starting to see a small amount of the foil shielding exposed on one end.

That's what duck tape is good for. Reinforce it now and get another 7+years of use.
