    From personal experience, headphone jacks have been more susceptible to wearing out than USB-C.

    • The connection became so loose that the plug would slip out on its own.
    • The jack would (I assume) partially lose contact, resulting in missing frequencies in the audio and crackling if I rotate the plug.

    Both of these can be partially remedied by cleaning the port, but after six years with my old phone even that didn’t work anymore. The USB-C port still did, however.
