This. And USB-C wasn’t the lifesaver everyone thought it would be, either--I’ve heard people even with recent USB-C jack phones wear out after a year or two.

The sole reason that I started using a wireless charger exclusively is that the most common failure point on my phones has been the charging port. Crud and pocket lint gets shoved up there, the contacts wear out, and if a phone case has a little rubber flipper to protect the port, that rubber flipper wears out and…
