defect USB plug loose/rattling, is that common ?

[JJB 25]

Hello there,

recently got my new Pro 1X, but trying to load it I sensed the USB plug to be loose.
While moving it slightly it was rattling inside the phone.
I am not sure. As the USB module is separate, does this refer to a not so perfect clamped/glued module or might the screw or even the connection on the conductor board be broken ?

I once experienced something similar on a graphics card, where the plug was loose as its screw was broken from the board. After some time of rattling the soldering of the plug broke and it was doomed.

Does anybody have an idea on that ?
Or maybe have a close picture of the phone inside or the module to get an idea ?

Thanks for answering.

You might find this post interesting as it is the only close up I can recall of the main antenna board, which has the USB-C port attached.

Thanx.

Looks like the plug is solded only and it wouldn't make too much noises if the plug was torn of itself. Guess the board itself is loose.

Those wholes look like it's screwed to the frame.
Any chance those screws where torn of the thread ?

Unfortunately the disassemble video does not supply too much detailed looks into the inside.

Here are couple teardown guides fro Pro1 but might be useful for Pro1-X also.

Also, the vimeo account of F(x)tec has some useful videos:

Lastly, here are couple photos taken by me when I changed the usb board (Pro1).
