I can’t agree. My iPhone 6 is about six years old, and the port still works like new.

Counterpoint - I have an iPhone 6 that has exactly this problem. The cable doesn't get seated properly, so occasionally it stops charging or disconnects when attached to a computer.

Try cleaning the pocket lint out of it. Major quality of life improvement for me.

Another +1 for lint. Use a wooden toothpick and be gentle

This. I’ve just solved exactly those problems by cleaning out the hole.

I upgraded from 6S to 2nd gen SE because of intermittent charging of 6S. Over time, port became loose, cable didn’t fit and come out easily.
