I have DUODUOGO 10.1 tablet that is 12-14 months old and I ‘ve never had a thing wrong with it. Last night I plugged it i to charge it like I've done dozens of times. This morning I went to use it and the plug of charging cord wouldn't come out. It was stick. I was forced to pull it out with pliers and I'm pretty sure it broke the tablet's socket. I’m pretty heartbroken and depressed because it's not like I have $200 to spend on a tablet every year. (I'm on limited income) The odd thing is that I didn't force it to fit last night. Went on as easy as it usually does. Usually if the plug is upside down it just won't fit and after a couple tries I turn it over. Don't understand why it ‘fit' so easily last night? They should be made shaped so you cant connect wrong. I'm 99% sure a plug won't fit now. (Wasn't standard USB socket) but can't try because cord was end was wrecked when I tried to unplug it.
Why don't they make the tablet sockets easily replaceable? (Socket bases held in with screws / sockets that are unpluggable would be good) I' beginning to hate the unrepsirable aspect of technology. Instead of paying $25 to have a new socket soldered in I will have to pay $150 more to get new tablet. They need to put in easily replaceable socket. This must happen a lot. Very profitable I guess.
