As if there weren’t already enough problems with the iPhone 5, now the new Lightning USB cable is reportedly getting stuck in USB power adapters and computer ports. The newer Lightning cables have deeper divots and a slightly thinner mouth on the USB plug than the old 30-pin cables did, so the cable can get stuck inside your USB port.
Luckily, there is a quick fix for this. If you have a dress shirt hanging in your closet, you can use the collar-stay to help dislodge your cable.
