    That’s exactly what I’m saying. I’m not use to having this variability in build quality of USB ports, or Lightning ports.

    I’m use to it either always being shit (micro-usb) or almost always fine unless an incident damages the port. USB-A is rock solid, relatively speaking.

      No one uses Micro USB so that’s not really reliant. As far as lightning goes it is just as variable as usb-c.

      Maybe I am reading into it but it sounds like you just are one of those people who thinks “Apple good everything else sucks”

        Did I get micro wrong? I mean the one the PS4 controllers had. I’m just comparing it to past standards. Why can’t I compare the durability? That’s what this thread of comments on this post is about.

        Lots of companies make quality usb-c ports. I just happen to know of two surprising examples where the quality was lacking. I wouldn’t expect Valve and Meta to have poorly made ports. I’d expect cheap Chinese designed/produced devices to have them.

        Apple was just an easy example of quality well built ports.
