The only real positive is not wearing out the charge port and being able to charge even with a broken port

Currently the reason I have a wireless charger.

The alternative was buying a new phone.

live local phone repair shop reaction:

(unless whatever anti repair bs your phone manufacturer pulled off made the cost of repair higher than buying a new phone, in which case shame on the phone manufacturer)

Some phones have the port on a daughterboard for relatively cheap replacement, but some have it straight on the mainboard.
