I have an iPhone and a MacBook with USB-C ports, and my experience has been the exact opposite. The lightning port on my iPhone is really weak, all cords can way too easily lose a connection so my music stops or it stops charging. The USB-C on my laptop snaps in really nicely, I'm never worried about the cable not being fully connected.

Sounds like you’ve got some lint in your iPhone’s charging port. I recently used a cocktail stick to remove a big lump of it from my wife’s 6s where she had the same issues.

Cable snaps in nicely now.

Yeah that's what I was originally hoping, but I've tried cleaning it out a few times with no luck.
Two of the usb-c ports on my 2016 MBP has been loose for a while
