Comment on Apple’s new USB-C iPhone cables and dongles are predictably expensive
vzq@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 year agoThe main predictor of cable wear is whether people are using the phone while the cable is attached.
If you just leave it to charge they will last for u years. If you continue to use them while they are charging, life span of the cable is measured in weeks.

Is that specific to the lightning or also the usb-c?

It’s specific to cables. More motion is more strain is more wear.
