I hate when I get something that still has a micro or even worse a mini 🤮
At least mini is robust. Micro had that tiny tab that always got damaged after a year or less cuz you inevitably tried to plug that mf in backwards
Yeah, mini is the best! It is robust and has a ahape that makes it easy to figure out which way to plug it. I love it when i fet a device with a mini

May I introduce you to USB C then where it doesn't fucking matter how you plug it? I definitely prefer mini over the micro abomination but it's not "the best".
I see you don’t work IT where the solition to “my docking station isn’t working” always, always, always is “rotate the USB-C cable”.
I am not kidding. Vendors fuck this up either because they’re dumb or because they want to cheap out (why make sure both work if they’re interchangeable?)
I don't think I ever managed to break it by plugging it in backwards, but they indeed brake constantly. Mine would always bend since they were so bloody thin. The only micro usb cable that didn't break is the one going to my PC tablet, which I barely move, every other one got bumped around enough, either in my backpack or just charging in bed/on the couch, to eventually break the contacts within a year or 2, 3 max.
I once got an adapter as a kid to plug in a controller, was super exited until I dropped it and stepped on it by accident with my naked squishy child feet, probably the fastest I ever broke one of these. Like what the actual fuck? Micros sucks so much!
Mini may be more robust, but do you know how hard for me to find a mini cable?
I still have a few because PSP/ps3, but also https://www.monoprice.com/Product?p_id=3896
Monoprice! For all your cable needs.
I have some left for the same reason, the hard part is figuring out where I left them
It's the rule of cables. If I look for a micro USB, I will only find minis. If I look for minis, why suddenly I have only micro USB!!! Maybe I'm in the bad place.
Ngl this never happened to me ever and I'm clumsy asf. Guess I was lucky.
Same. You're not alone.
