The connector is ‘ok’. It’s better than MicroUSB, MiniUSB and USB-A.
If only Tim hadn’t eschewed Steve’s wishes on Lightning though - it was supposed to be handed over to USB-IF as a royalty-free standard, instead Tim saw dollar signs and we all got a worse connector.
Reminder that lightning is strong enough to hold up a phone for display purposes, on it’s own.
