iPhone chargers that don’t break?

Look for Anker or Belkin ones!

Try braided charging cable?

Use them carefully? What exactly do you mean by "break"?

I've always been happy with Anker cables and chargers

My wife was forever breaking them until I taught her how to unplug the cable from the phone/charger.

Is it the charger or cable you're breaking? My son goes through cheap cables at an alarming rate but the expensive ones seem to last.
