I-Phone chargers

Does apple make an I-Phone charger with an oversize end to plug into phone. It seems as though a regular cord is too small and the phone does not recognize the charger is plugged in. It feels loose and sometimes if you wiggle it, it may charge but you can't touch it or it will stop charging.

iPhone 5s, iOS 12

Then there is something wrong with the iPhone’s port. It should not in any way be larger and have the cable connector be loose. Inside.


The Lightning end on the cable should fit snuggly in the port and not fall out.


Do you honestly think Apple has such terrible quality control that the ports are large than the intended connectors to such a degree that the cables are loose.


If you have tried to clean the port in the iPhone out and there’s nothing there, take the iPhone into an Apple Store so they can take a look and repair it or replace it if necessary.
