When the cable has to be held at an angle, keeps falling out, or the charge light will not come on, a worn or broken charging port is one of the usual causes. We replace it by post for a fixed £45, USB-C or micro-USB, with tracked UK return and a 12-month warranty on the work.
Tracked UK return is included. £15 books your slot and comes off the price.

The JBL speakers listed here leave the factory with an IPX7 or IP67 water resistance rating. Once a speaker has been opened, nobody can guarantee that rating any more. We refit the seals and gaskets carefully, but after a port repair we advise keeping the speaker out of water.
A speaker that has been in water can also have corrosion beyond the port, and on some boards the pads under the port lift when the old port comes off. If we find damage like that, we photograph it and quote before doing anything more.
A recent example: a SkyTrak+ golf launch monitor whose USB-C port only worked with the cable held in one exact position. Inside, the socket had been torn off its mounts, so we replaced it and photographed every stage. Read the SkyTrak+ teardown and USB-C port repair.
