Every year it becomes harder to keep up with remembering which cable is compatible with the latest device. With most Android smartphones running on either Micro-USB or USB-C, the Apple iPhone line has iterated from the 30-pin to the proprietary Lightning. Let’s also not get started on the relatively new push towards wireless charging.
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased screentime for smartphone users since March. Whatever the reasons, it’s going to be more common for users to reach for a charging cable to stay connected. Naturally, the increase in usage is going to drive down the cable’s lifespan or have it mysteriously disappear under a multi-person living situation.
