This thread brings me to the question: Is it only me or does the DS4 tend to destroy USB cables? I swear to god that sucker destroyed a dozen of my cables. I'm still not quite sure why it happens, ut everytime I use a cable with it, it breaks down after 4 weeks or something. I had the idea that it's because of the placement of the port and that I shouldn't lay it on the back while charging. So I always lay it on the analog sticks since then, but the cables still get destroyed. It also doesn't matter if I use cheap cables or expensive ones. That thing destroyed even my Xbox USB cable, the one with this neat little light that shows when my Xbox Controller is fully charged.

I experienced such problems with four different DS4. One from the very beginning at launch, one from a friend, one I bought new and the one that came with the Pro, the new one with the light bar in the front. So do I have incredibly bad luck or have some other folks here experienced similar things?

I'm still using the original cable that came with the PS4 so probably just you.
