IIRC, USB-C is supposed to be the most resilient USB to date (in terms of average plug&#x2F;unplug cycles before failure). Too early to say if that&#x27;s actually true, or how that compares to 3.5mm in any case, but it&#x27;s not impossible that it&#x27;s comparable--especially since USB-C finally eliminates the &quot;try to jam it in the wrong way &#x27;round&quot; problem.
