My lightning cable broke!

The lightning cable that came with my phone broke a few months. This happened to anyone else? At first it was just a small blister on the tip that goes in the cell, but then she grew up and broke a part. After the cable has broken, I bought an original in iplace, the Brazilian representative of Apple, but it had the same problems as the original cord, but this cable, not busted.

What am I doing wrong? What is the "correct" way to use the lightning cables? Way

Thank you, Leonardo.

remove from device by holding the plug NOT the wire

Tens of millions of users do not have problems with these cables

Those that do have issue appear to damage the cables time and time again ..............................wonder what that tells us ???
