That’s got to be something you’re doing. Cause I’ve had exactly zero problems. In fact I don’t think I’ve actually met a person who’s ever had a problem with USB - C. But I have boxes (plural) of dead micro USB cables and, on top of that, I have so many devices that have been rendered useless by the fact that the micro USB port has been blown or damaged in some way it’s not even funny.
Edit, these are not all mine. They are from multiple people.
Type-C ports are a lot more sensitive to dirt in my experience. I can keep it working if I clean the port every couple weeks, but at this point I just pretend phones don’t have charging ports.
God yes. I absolutely HATE that phones got slimmer and slimmer while also consuming more battery - which can’t be swapped like the good old days.
I’ve got giant hands. Give me a phone that’s AT LEAST twice as thick with a battery that lasts at least three days.
I’d absolutely carry a large Motorola brick phone style if those were still viable today. They do make retro gimmick phones like it, but you really do need a smartphone for a lot of specific apps.
Unihertz and Oukitel both make “rugged” phone models with giant batteries - aimed at weekend campers with giant hands. And Fairphone and Volla both have phones that still allow for easy battery swapping.
Neat, I’ve never heard of those. Unihertz makes one with a projector in it… that’s wild. I’d be hesitant to buy a phone that’s sold on AliExpress though, I’d assume OS support wouldn’t be that great.
What kind of sadistic shit bag would actually want those defective easily broken pieces of trash back???
I’ve had 400% more failures of USB C than of micro. Keep in mind I’ve only had C for a couple years, and micro for 14 across numerous devices.

I don’t know what you’re doing because I’ve had 0 failures with it

I want full size USB-B on all phones. Fight me
Thicker Phone with a longer battery and durable. Sign me up.
There are a ton of those in the market already
Nope. It’s aaaaaall camera bump.
Camera bump really pisses me off. Just make the phone thicker with a longer battery damnit
