IPhone X charging port

My charging port has been spastic and shirting out. It will charge fine if I plug it in and leave it still. But it I move it it will go in and off, therefore vibrating and dinging(if sound is on). Also interferes with CarPlay because I lose phone calls when It shorts out. I have tried brand new charging cables, Apple and non Apple. Any suggestions. It’s quite annoying.

iPhone XS Max, iOS 12

Iphone 11 charging port i have had this purple iphone 11 since august 2020, and since i’ve bought this i’ve noticed that the charging port seems to be faulty and loose. when i plug in my headphones more times than not it doesn’t register them and i can wiggle it while it’s plugged in. it takes a few tried for it to properly click and it still doesn’t work straight away. when i plug in my charger it also doesn’t register it straight away and start charging it. it takes at least 5 tries for it to finally work, i can also wiggle it in the port. i am confident to say this wasn’t caused by me since i never yank anything plugged and it’s been an issue since i’ve bought it. id like to know if there is anything i can do?? because i think that the older the phone gets the worse it will get and cause even more issues when charging in the future. thank you :)

IPhone charging port 1 yr + iphone 12 mini, the charging port has enlarged and none of my charging cords (car/home/aux bat) will connect for charging without a lot of wiggling and holding in place. A solution without buying 3 different charging pads. (car/home/aux bat)

Have you tried cleaning the lint out of the lightning port?
