Surprised to see how many have similar problems. I’ve got the severe angle thing. Can get it to make contact for a little while by duct taping the cable down. I must have a great cable since I’ve been abusing it this way and it still works. One layer made it much easier to make contact. I am going to try another and see if I can make it somewhat normal. I bought a refurb for the cost of a repair and that one quit charging after 6 wks, I’m waiting to get its replacement . Same problem I bet. Thanks for the video!
