I feel like having to replace charging cords is an Apple issue specifically.

I'm horrified by the amount of time my wife had to replace her Mac charger because the cord was breaking.

I don't think I ever had to replace the cord on any of my laptop, replacing the charger because the cord is breaking has never been a consideration before.
