I'm pretty glad to have both options. I take your point about using it while charging, but I also find myself having to jump up from my desk quite a bit, and it's nice to be able to just pick up my phone without first unplugging it. And I imagine all of that plugging and unplugging is reducing the durability of the port over time.

I really like the magnetic charging port plug adaptors for situations like that, but personally, if I'm jumping up and down from my desk at work or something and have my phone plugged in, I'll just leave it on my desk while I'm away. And if I'm not coming back to it for a good bit, the extra half second it takes to unplug my phone is more than worth the more efficient power transfer, imo.

But to each their own.

Each to their own indeed!
