USB-C has been really fragile for me. Cables tend to only last a couple of months on my phone. People say it is a robust connector type, so idk if my phone is defective and destroying them, or if people are being overly generous about the connector resilience.
I don’t really know why your cables would be falling so fast, but to be fair part of the design of USB C is that, inverting the design of USB A, the connector is on the cable side, in the hope that the cable should be the part that deteriorates first. That way fewer devices get trashed for having dodgy sockets.
I’ve had mine for like 4 years at this point and they are still perfect. I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say you are either buying cheap shit or are abusive as fuck with your cables.
Neither of those things are true, but I think my phone port might be frying them. I already had to return 1 Pixel 7 Pro for a dead port that burned up a cable on its way out.
Have you tried using a different charger? What about your other devices? Do you have issues with them? I wonder if the charger is what is damaging them.

My question is on the cables. I learned way too quickly that the quality of the cables matters a ton with USB C.
I haven’t had any problems with USB C cables failing other than the one one of my kids chewed on
Are your kids rats?
Worse. They’re both under the age of 5
No, they’re obviously baby goats.

Your limb has snapped, and you are injured.

It might be the charger. It’s a 30w, 5amp charger from Costco.
Maybe they’re lonely and just want to talk to someone about it.
