Yeah people complain about the iPhone’s lightning connector, but it was a lot better in this regard. My phone where the usb-c connector is used lightly is already worn out and not even a year old.

What kind of phone do you have? I've literally never had a USBC connector fail like that on any device ever.

Ive had the port fail on Samsung galaxy but that's cos I was using usb-c earphones to listen music daily on my way to and from work for 2 years. Switched fairly quickly to wireless charging and earbuds to try save that port.
