Here are the most likely brands to break by charging port failure. I can say that I see a lot of iPhones, but usually a good port cleaning fixes the issue. Samsung's number may look high, but remember that they just make a lot more models than apple. Also, these are fairly easy and inexpensive to replace whereas apple iPhones require a motherboard removal to replace the port.
I’ve seen every possible charging failure under my bench lamp—phones that only charge at a weird angle, ports that are so clogged they look like lint museums, and models whose USB-C connectors simply give out after a year.
The top five red-flags are:
• Loose or wobbly plug
• Intermittent charging
• Complete failure to charge
• Noticeably slow charge
• Port overheating
