You can bet your left nut that braiding will do precisely zero for durability. No way they want to eat into their cable profits.
I’ve never had an apple cable fail after 10+ years of owning their devices. People who destroy their cables are irresponsible, simple as
I don’t break very many cables myself, but I’ve certainly broken a couple of Apple cables - they seem particularly delicate.
All it takes is picking up your phone without realising it’s still on charge and getting unlucky with force/angle. That won’t destroy it but it’ll damage the interface between the cable and the plug enough that it’ll start to deteriorate and eventually come apart.
Lol it doesn’t matter whether I was irresponsible or not with my cables, who the fuck babies their cables anyway, for the price you pay for the iPhone those cables should be durable as hell. Even IKEA cables sells cheap cables that are braided and never break.
I don’t baby my cables I just take care of the things I buy. If you’re not capable of the same then the problem lies with you not the cable
The magsafe cables are braided and they’re nice. Maybe someone else can chime in if they actually last longer as I‘m rarey using mine, so it being prestine is not a surprise in my case.
