    Okay, “never would have happened” is an exaggerated statement. But you’re talking about the headphone wires breaking. I’m talking about the USBC port on the phone itself breaking. I’ve never had a headphone jack PORT break. But Ive had 2 phones USBC ports fail from pressure on the plug.

    I would much rather have the wire on headphones fail instead of the port on the device itself.

      If only there was some sort of technology we could use to completely avoid any risk of mechanical wear and tear from either the port or the wires! Alas, we are doomed as there no such wire absent tech! Doomed we are I say, for black magic it would be to go in life without copper, and a curse upon us from the wretched absent jack port!
